\"'Love Sophie Gr\u00e9goire, ex-wife of Justin Trudeau<\/a>, posted an uncanny message on Instagram on Monday, day after photos surfaced online showing the former Canadian Prime Minister kissing pop singer Katy Perry<\/a> aboard her yacht. The post hinted at moving on, with Gr\u00e9goire postin: \u201cThe people, the places, even the moments that once felt, I don\u2019t know, infinite\u2014time asks us to not cling to them. And yet we do, I do, because to hold on feels safer than to let go.\u201dGr\u00e9goire continued, \u201cLove was never about possession. It was always about presence, the present moment. And when we release what we cannot keep, we make space for the truth of connection, intimacy, the memory, you know, for the lesson, for the way a single smile can echo across a lifetime.\u201d She added, \u201cSometimes we forget that nothing we love was ever meant to be kept.\u201dThe couple shares three children\u2014Xavier, Ella-Grace, and Hadrien. They announced their separation in August 2023 after 18 years of marriage. Trudeau, 53, has faced months of rumours linking him romantically with Katy Perry, 40, who split from actor Orlando Bloom in June. The rumours grew on Sunday after the Daily Mail shared photos of Trudeau and Perry kissing on her luxury yacht near Santa Barbara, California.\u201cMaybe love\u2019s deepest teaching is this\u2014to stand open-hearted in the face of impermanence, to honour what has been and to trust that letting go is also a form of keeping inside us where no loss can erase it,\u201d Gr\u00e9goire said in the Instagram video. \u201cThat is love\u2019s endurance. That is what carries us forward.\u201dTrudeau and Perry were also seen together in Montreal in July, sharing a private dinner. Perry has a 5-year-old daughter, Daisy Dove Bloom, with Orlando Bloom and was previously married to comedian Russell Brand. Sources told the Daily Mail that the singer is \u201cvery, very interested in him. She says he’s a real catch, a high-quality guy. She clearly likes him a lot. He likes her a lot.\u201dTrudeau has not publicly commented on the relationship. Social media reactions to the yacht photos have been mixed, with some critics questioning his commitment to his family and Canada.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sophie Gr\u00e9goire, ex-wife of Justin Trudeau, posted an uncanny message on Instagram on Monday, day after photos surfaced…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":211172,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,75,25162,4417,855,28600,65582],"class_list":{"0":"post-211171","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-justin-trudeau","12":"tag-katy-perry","13":"tag-relationship","14":"tag-separation","15":"tag-sophie-gregoire"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211171","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=211171"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/211171\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/211172"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=211171"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=211171"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=211171"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
