Katie Holmes, 47, Kisses Jason Bard Yarmosky on Lake Como Yacht as Romance Goes Instagram Official

Q: Why has Katie Holmes kept her new artist boyfriend a secret from her daughter Suri despite their highly public Italian getaway?

Katie Holmes appears not to have been hiding Jason Bard Yarmosky from Suri so much as delaying a family introduction because the relationship was still new. Reporting tied to the romance says Holmes and Yarmosky were “intentionally taking it slow,” and had not yet met each other’s families. A Page Six source said they were still simply “in the dating phase,” with no major relationship steps taken yet. That helps explain why Holmes could be publicly affectionate with him in Italy while still keeping him separate from her daughter’s life. That approach also fits Holmes’ long-established protectiveness around Suri. Holmes has repeatedly emphasized guarding her daughter’s privacy and stability, and coverage of this relationship says she wanted to be sure it had real potential before bringing a boyfriend into Suri’s world. Sources described that as a consistent rule for Holmes after her divorce from Tom Cruise: she does not rush introductions involving her daughter. Some later tabloid reports say Suri has since met Yarmosky and approved of him, but the clearest reported reason for the earlier lack of introduction is not secrecy or conflict. It is caution. Holmes was reportedly enjoying the relationship, felt safe and comfortable with Yarmosky, and preferred to see where it was going before making it part of her family life.

Lake Como photos show 47-year-old Katie Holmes kissing Jason Bard Yarmosky on a luxury yacht, where the couple cuddled, sunbathed and swam during an Italian vacation.
The outing adds to a relationship that first drew attention in July, when Holmes and the New York-based artist arrived together at a screening of “The Invite” and were photographed holding hands.
Earlier this month, Holmes made the romance Instagram official with a birthday post calling Yarmosky “the best of the best,” while he has since shared more images from their Italy trip.
The public display marks Holmes’ latest high-profile relationship after past romances with Bobby Wooten III, Emilio Vitolo Jr., Jamie Foxx and ex-husband Tom Cruise.
