Jamie Foxx and Katie Holmes' Relationship and Breakup, Explained
The couple were together for six years.
A new love begins
Holmes and Foxx first sparked dating rumors when they were spotted together in the Hamptons in 2013. It was a year after her divorce from Cruise. Multiple reports stated that Holmes agreed not to date publicly for five years in their agreement, which may be the reason she and Foxx kept things under the radar for so long.
That's my boo
Two years into their courtship, a source confirmed Holmes and Foxx were dating. An insider told PEOPLE: "This is not some intense romance. Jamie and Katie are friends and have been for a long time. They are two adults who are attractive and single, and so apparently conclusions will be drawn. But contrary to those conclusions, they're not about to run off and make some serious commitment."
The city of love
In 2017, the couple took their love to Paris, France, a destination for lovers. At the time, Holmes visited her beau as he filmed a project with Leonardo DiCaprio. Paparazzi captured them boarding a flight out of Paris together.
A year of public outings
2017 marked the first year the pair had been seen together out and about on numerous occasions. She was by his side for his 50th birthday, supported him at events, and they were even spotted taking a stroll in Malibu.
More spottings
In 2018, they reportedly tried to balance their private and public lives and opted for more privacy, which was hard to achieve with their level of fame. Still, they were seen together often, including a trip to New Orleans. Foxx also celebrated Holmes' 40th birthday that year.
A shocking split
Holmes and Foxx were spotted together at industry events twice in 2019: once at the Pre-Grammy party, and a second on the red carpet at the Met Gala. It seemed they were going strong, but they split shortly after.
