Katie Holmes, Jamie Foxx 2018: Why Are Tom Cruise's Ex and Her 'Django Unchained' Lover So Private About Their Love Life?

Fans of Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx's low-key relationship may be wondering why Tom Cruise's ex and the “Ray” actor are not noisy about their relationship like other celebrity couples.

It is well known that Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx have been seeing each other since 2013. Us Magazine recently released a timeline of the couple's relationship for any fans out of the loop. But most of those who have been following the couple's relationship know that the romance between Holmes and Foxx started when the pair were spotted dancing together at a charity event in the Hamptons. But even with the almost five-year relationship between the two, neither Holmes nor Foxx has talked about their relationship to the press.

Jamie Foxx has a history of not discussing his relationship with Katie Holmes in public. He famously walked out on ESPN Sportscenter's Michael Smith when the show's host asked him about his relationship with Katie Holmes during an NBA All-Star Celebrity game he was attending with Justin Bieber.

Katie Holmes, on the other hand, has never publicly talked about her relationship with Jamie Foxx in person as well. There hasn't been a Katie Holmes interview that mentions her relationship with Oscar-nominated actor and any statements that claim to address the relationship between Holmes and Foxx have always come from a representative rather than a direct quote.

Due to the obvious silence about the relationship, fans may wonder if there is any credibility to the rumor that Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise's divorce included a clause which prevents the “Dawson's Creek” alum from dating anyone else for five years after the divorce's conclusion. This rumor was officially debunked by a representative from Tom Cruise's camp for those who still believe it to be true.

Katie Holmes's and Jamie Foxx's personal histories of having former marriages or relationships that eventually did not work out may just have made them more private about their love lives.

Jamie Foxx himself has been private about who the mothers of his two daughters are while Katie Holmes, similar to her ex-husband, no longer parades her beaus and romantic life in public after ending her marriage with Tom Cruise. Fans will just have to accept that as celebrities get older, bothering about whom you're dating for the public to fawn over becomes unbearable as well.
