Katie Holmes and Emilio Vitolo Jr. appear to be completely smitten with each other as they are frequently seen in each other’s company in New York City, and their recent outing was not an exception.

There has been massive curiosity about their relationship, but the chef and the Dawson’s Creek alum made their relationship official on Instagram on the latter’s 42nd birthday. The chef wrote a mushy message on his Instagram handle to celebrate his girlfriend’s birthday. Holmes had responded to him with an equally endearing message. 

The actress looked happy and appeared to be all smiles even though she took caution to cover her face with a mask for her latest outing. Holmes was seen holding Vitolo Jr.’s hands in the Big Apple after the lovebirds stepped out for a romantic walk. 

The mother-of-one wore a black top under a winter coat and paired it up with a set of white high-waisted trousers. She donned black booties and carried a matching leather purse to accessorize her outfit. 

On the other hand, her beau looked elegant in a blue shirt beneath a charcoal overcoat. He wore black and blue leather wingtip shoes and a pair of grey slacks for the outing. 

The pair seems to be having fun, and their relationship has blossomed now, according to People magazine. Insiders claim that the restaurateur had to go through a lot of stress last year because of the outbreak of COVID-19, which affected his restaurant business. The relationship has done wonders for him.

Due to the lockdown restrictions, the couple can spend more time with each other. They will try to figure out their relationship when Holmes starts working once again. As of now, they are enjoying each other’s company whenever possible. 

The couple was first linked in September last year while enjoying their dinner date in SoHo then. Although Holmes is known to be a private person, she has had no qualms about showing her affection for her reported beau over the last few months. 

Meanwhile, sources have claimed that the duo is besotted with each other and behave like teenagers whenever they meet one another. Emilio VItolo Jr. has a smile on his face whenever he sees the Batman Begins actress. They cannot stay away from each other and meet one another almost daily. 

Insiders also contend that the chef starts blushing every time people ask him about Katie Holmes. There is never a dull moment when both of them are together. They keep smiling and look into each other’s eyes, according to sources. 

Katie Holmes dated the 53-year-old actor Jamie Foxx before she started going around with Emilio Vitolo Jr. The Jack and Jill actress and the actor had a breakup in 2019 after they started their relationship in 2013, according to Daily Mail.
