Jamie Foxx and Katie Holmes Put On PDA On the Beach [VIDEO]

For the past four years or so, a lot of people have been asking if Jaime Foxx and Katie Holmes are a couple, and they might’ve just gotten an answer.

On Wednesday, Sept. 6, TMZ shared some photos of the two celebrities strolling in Malibu, while they enjoyed the surf and seemingly each other. One pic shows both of them holding hands and another captures Foxx grabbing his phone and taking a photo of Holmes, Tom Cruise’s ex-wife.

Even though Foxx and the actress weren’t pawing at each other or making out on the beach, holding hands in public is still a big deal, since they’ve never shown that much PDA.

Moreover, it’s been reported that Foxx and Holmes aren’t super serious about their relationship, despite being together for years. At least, supposedly.

“This is not some intense romance,” said a People magazine source in 2015. “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.”

Besides news about Foxx’s love life, it’s been reported that he’s organizing a telethon fundraiser for the victims of Hurricane Harvey. He also donated $25,000 after Kevin Hart issued a challenge.

“From a fellow Texan, my heart goes out. My prayers go out,” said Foxx on Instagram. “September 12 we have a telethon that we’re doing. We’ll give you more details, so we can raise as much money as we can for everybody down there.”

Another thing Foxx will undoubtedly raise is more questions about his dealings with Holmes, because although the source said they weren’t serious, both of them were seen by the paparazzi wearing gold bands on their fingers, which of course caused a lot of chatter.

Both Foxx and Holmes have adamantly denied that they’re a couple, with the “Django Unchained” star recently calling the rumors ridiculous.

“Fake news,” he told a TMZ reporter in March, after being asked about the possible relationship.

Will Foxx and Holmes ever come clean about their dealings with each other or does the public still have it all wrong? Who knows? Maybe time will eventually tell and maybe it won’t.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
