Katie Holmes Continues Romantic Outings With New Boyfriend Who Was Allegedly Engaged Just Before Their PDAs

Katie Holmes and her new boyfriend, Emilio Vitolo Jr., are not affected by the controversy surrounding the latter as they continue their PDA-packed outings.

Holmes and Vitolo were spotted again on Thursday. The lovers were strolling while holding hands in Central Park. In the photos obtained by Page Six, the two also sat on a bench and shared a sweet kiss on the lips. Both were wearing masks, but they placed them under their chins, so they could share a kiss.

Holmes opted for a gray tank top, white jeans and sneakers for the outing. She tied her hair in a messy bun and wrapped her sweater around her waist. Meanwhile, Vitolo sported a white sweater that matched his cap and wore black pants.

Last week, an insider spoke with Daily Mail claiming that Holmes' new man was actually engaged to designer Rachel Emmons. The insider who claimed to be a close friend of Emmons called Vitolo a "cheater."

"Up to this press coming out, Rachel had no idea what was going on. He is a cheater, and this isn't a ‘happy ending' story," the anonymous pal of Emmons told the media oulet.

The insider added that Emmons and Vitolo were living together and shared a dog. However, he allegedly dumped her via text on the day his photos with Holmes made headlines.

The tipster continued saying that the pair had concrete wedding plans. But Vitolo's romance with Holmes left Emmons with bad press and she was forced to move out of their home.

Holmes and Vitolo were spotted for the first time earlier this month — about a year after her split from Jamie Foxx. The pair visited the Mediterranean restaurant Antique Garage in SoHo on Sept. 1. The "Dawson's Creek" star was in high spirits during the outing because she was seen laughing in the leaked photos.

Days after the first sighting, they were spotted again and the two have become more tactile in their succeeding outings. Holmes and Vitolo are often photographed hugging or sharing a kiss.

Holmes dated Foxx after her divorce from Tom Cruise in 2012. They were together for six years, but the pair was notoriously private about their romantic relationship.
