Katie Holmes Snuggles up to Her New Boyfriend on Their First Red Carpet Date Night

Katie Holmes is hitting the red carpet with her new boyfriend, artist Jason Bard Yarmosky, and the couple is looking very happy together.

The beloved actress, 47, rose to stardom as Joey Potter on the WB teen series Dawson’s Creek. She went on to roles in films like Batman Begins and Thank You For Smoking, and became prime paparazzi fodder thanks to her 2006 marriage to Hollywood icon Tom Cruise. While that relationship sold endless tabloids and made Holmes a paparazzi target, even after their 2012 divorce, the devoted mom of Suri has done her best to eschew the prying eyes of the camera. That’s why it’s quite notable that Holmes stepped out with Yarmosky at the 2026 Guild Hall Summer Gala in East Hampton, New York.

With their arms around each other, Holmes leaned in on Yarmosky’s shoulder with a smile on her face. Elegantly dressed in a strapless white dress, the beauty looks mighty happy with her new love, whom she started seeing in July.

What is Katie Holmes Up to These Days?

Last summer, Holmes reunited with her Dawson’s Creek costar Joshua Jackson for Happy Hours, which she wrote, starred in, and directed. The dramedy, which is a trilogy, was described to Deadline as a “story about two people (Jackson and Holmes) navigating their relationship within the challenges of 

careers and family responsibilities and the pursuit of love, despite life’s inevitable obstacles. It’s a character-driven dramedy that explores the emotional journey of young loves who reconnect as adults, with the connective thread of shared joys, loss, and hope.”
