Sophie Grégoire Trudeau may be separated from the prime minister of Canada, but that does not mean that she’s done with politics. In an interview with The Telegraph, the former first lady of Canada, 49, said she won’t rule out going into politics. “I believe you can be in service to fellow human beings in many different ways,” she said. “And politics is not the only way. As I said I will be serving in my own way. There’s no yes or no. I will continue to serve in the best way that I can. There are many ways to serve.” However, Trudeau, who was married to Justin Trudeau for 18 years before splitting in 2023, said she does not put pressure on the couple’s three children to enter politics. “I think as parents we have to celebrate the authentic nature of our kids and try not to put the pressure on them that the world already puts [on them], whether you are children of political figures or not,” she said.
