## Summary

Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau were photographed holding hands as they left a Beverly Hills restaurant, in their first public outing since Perry’s former husband Russell Brand was sentenced for rape and sexual assault. The appearance drew attention because of the timing, although the article reports no comment from either Perry or Trudeau about the conviction.

Perry, 42, and Trudeau, 54, have been dating for more than a year. Brand, who was married to Perry from 2010 to 2011, received a sentence of 10 years and six months after being found guilty of rape and sexual assault; the charges arose from alleged incidents involving six women between 1999 and 2009. He is being held at HMP Wandsworth and is expected to be transferred to another prison.
