Katie Holmes and Jason Bard Yarmosky appear as a couple at Lake Como

These images come the day after another post by Jason Bard Yarmosky dedicated to their getaway around Lake Como. The couple enjoys a boat ride, swimming, and the Italian scenery, in a sequence widely commented on by the American celebrity media.

The relationship took a public step forward on September 1. For Jason Bard Yarmosky’s birthday, Katie Holmes posted a photo of the couple on Instagram, describing him as the “best of the best,” a post interpreted as the official confirmation of their romance. People confirmed that the two subsequently shared numerous photos together during their trip.

The 47-year-old actress and the 39-year-old artist were seen together earlier in the summer. In July, they attended a screening of Olivia Wilde’s film The Invite in East Hampton, where they were seen close and friendly. InStyle also reports that they had met a few weeks earlier at a dinner related to the Tribeca Film Festival in New York.

This new development marks a rare glimpse into Katie Holmes’s personal life, as she generally remains discreet about her relationships. The actress, who rose to fame with the series Dawson’s Creek, shares a daughter, Suri, with her ex-husband Tom Cruise.

Jason Bard Yarmosky, a New York artist

Jason Bard Yarmosky is a painter and draftsman based in New York. According to his professional profile shared by People, his work notably explores aging, time, and memory. His works have been exhibited in several museums and galleries in the United States as well as in Paris.

The Italian posts by the couple therefore do not constitute an announcement of engagement or marriage, but they do confirm the now public nature of their relationship. After several months of discretion, Katie Holmes and Jason Bard Yarmosky have chosen to document this new stage themselves on their social media accounts.
