Ever since Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise parted ways, the world has kept a watchful eye on Holmes and hoped that she would find her happily ever after. And now, she may have found just that.
On April 29, People shared exclusive photos of Holmes and a person who looks to be her new beau, musician Bobby Wooten III. The pair, who are clearly not just friends, were seen walking around Central Park in New York City in various states of embrace.
Flaunting her effortless style, Holmes wore a white T-shirt underneath denim overalls and a teal cardigan, with her hair pulled up in a messy bun. As for Wooten, he was seen sporting a set of blue sweats, a grey button down shirt and blue jacket, looking just as cosy and loved up as Holmes.
In said photos, which you can take a peek at here, the pair were spotted holding hands and kissing. And while, it is unknown when the pair began their relationship, it’s quite obvious that they’ve been dating a while. Why? Well, Wooten was seen hugging Holmes’ mother, Kathy Stothers-Holmes.
Wooten is a 33-years-old Grammy-nominated producer, composer and bass player who has worked with the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Machine Gun Kelly, Jennifer Hudson and the late Mac Miller. And within this month, Wooten has even performed at Californian music festival, Coachella, with Carly Rae Jepson.
As we already know, Holmes was famously married to Tom Cruise from 2006 to 2012 and the ex-couple currently share a 16-year-old daughter together, Suri Cruise.
After her divorce, Holmes was famously linked to Jamie Foxx for around six years, but the pair never confirmed their relationship, and as far as we know, they supposedly ‘split’ in 2019. Adament on keeping their relationship private, the pair reportedly parted ways months before Foxx was photographed alongside a different woman in August of that same year.
“What Jamie does is his business—we haven’t been together for months,” Holmes was overheard telling a friend, as per a Page Six report.
After splitting from Foxx, Holmes was most recently linked to Emilio Vitolo Jr. from September 2020 to May 2021.
“It was amazing while it lasted, but they are at very different places in life. Emilio has no hard feelings,” a source told People in May 2021.
Of course, no matter who Holmes is dating, all we hope is that the former Dawson’s Creek star is happy.
