Katie Holmes is hard-launching her new relationship. Over the summer, the actress and filmmaker have been photographed numerous times with Jason Bard Yarmosky, from shopping trips in New York to movie premieres and events in the Hamptons. They appear to have hard-launched their relationship with a sweet Instagram story.

The story was shared on Yarmosky's Instagram, where he posted a photo of Holmes mid-laugh, looking at the camera in a matching cream-colored outfit consisting of a top and a skirt. The photo was taken inside an empty stable. 

It features no caption, with Yarmosky simply tagging her. His later stories suggest the two were on a getaway together, including photos of a sunset boat ride. 

Holmes shared a similar photo on her Instagram profile, showing the view of the water and a sunset, taken from the pier. She captioned it with a smiley face.

More details of Holmes and Yarmosky's relationship

Holmes and Yarmosky were first spotted together in July of this year, at the premiere of the movie "The Invite" in The Hamptons. 

The pair also attended a dinner hosted by Ferragamo, where they appeared to wear matching outfits. When asked about their looks by Elle, Holmes said: "I think we just have similar taste." 

As a celebrity who's been the object of great scrutiny from the media, it makes sense for Holmes to be private when it comes to her love life. “Obviously, as a public person, I've gotten a lot of attention at different periods in my life,” she said to InStyle in 2022.

"And when you have a lot of attention, sometimes you don't want to leave the house because it's just too much. You can get consumed by what people think, but suddenly you just decide to do things on your own terms.”

“I feel like I'm finally figuring that out.”

Holmes' relationship with Yarmosky marks her first public romance since 2022, when she dated the musician Bobby Wooten II. In past years, she's dated different celebrities, including Jamie Foxx and Tom Cruise, with whom she shares her daughter Suri
