As Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announces split from wife Sophie, how many children do they have?

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie have asked for privacy after revealing that they have decided to split on Instagram. Justin Trudeau married television host and former model Sophie Grégoire Trudeau in 2005. Sky News reported that ‘The pair met as children when Sophie was a classmate of his youngest brother, Michael and they reconnected as adults when they co-hosted a 2003 charity gala."

On Instagram, Justin Trudeau said: “Hi everyone, Sophie and I would like to share the fact that after many meaningful and difficult conversations, we have made the decision to separate. As always, we remain a close family with deep love and respect for each other and for everything we have built and will continue to build. For the well-being of our children, we ask that you respect our and their privacy. Thank you.”

Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie share three children together, Xavier who is 15, Ella-Grace, 14, and Hadrien who is nine.

In 2017, Vogue wrote that “Trudeau was always quick to give props to his partner in life and in love. Just before his 2015 election, he tweeted (in French), ‘Thank you, #MyLove (and, I should say, Sophie!) for all your door knocking and the work you have done in this campaign.” Sophie Grégoire Trudeau studied for a BA in communications at the University of Montreal and worked in advertising, PR and sales. In May 2023, Now Toronto reported that “In a video posted to instagram earlier this week, Sophie Grégoire Trudeau talked about anxiety and having lived through an eating disorder in hopes that others would come forward with stories of their own.”
