John Mayer has publicly acknowledged his reported relationship with Katy Perry, confirming that he is "happy" with the 'Wide Awake' star.

Mayer has been constantly linked with the singer for a number of months, with a host of photos emerging of the couple out in public together.

He was quizzed by Rolling Stone on the rumoured partnership, to which he replied:

"It's been...I mean, I'm quite happy. I'm happy in all aspects of my life. I'm very happy in all aspects of my life."

Talking about his private life after being seen with Perry, Mayer responded:

"It makes it hard to live a life where people don't know who you are, but I haven't had any trouble in my private life at all. The only trouble I've had is maybe people geo-tagging me, but that's about it. To me it's just a matter of people knowing where you are on a given day, and I guess assessing your style when there is no style to be assessed. I don't really call that infringing on a personal life. That's just where I am, when. That's all."
