Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleKatie Holmes first won hearts as the quick-witted 'Joey Potter' on Dawson's Creek, parlaying teen stardom into a two-decade career spanning Batman Begins, Broadway's All My Sons, and her own work as a writer-director. Now 47 and living a deliberately low-key life in New York with daughter Suri, the actress has kept her personal life largely private since her split from Tom Cruise.
However, she came into the headlines on September 1, 2026, after making her new relationship Instagram-official, sharing a loved-up birthday post for artist boyfriend Jason Bard Yarmosky. Amid this, people are eager to know more about Jason.
Katie Holmes’ boyfriend Jason Bard Yarmosky has pursued a career in a different field
Jason Bard Yarmosky is a well-known contemporary artist. He earned his BFA from New York's School of Visual Arts in 2010 and has spent over a decade building a career focused on aging, memory, identity, and the passage of time. His paintings have been shown at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Guild Hall in East Hampton, and in Bergdorf Goodman's Fifth Avenue windows.
For more than ten years, his grandparents were his primary subjects and muses as he explored aging. Speaking to his alma mater in 2016, he explained that he is drawn to personal art over conventional beauty. He noted that society celebrates youth rather than getting older, even though aging is inevitable, and questioned why the full life cycle cannot be celebrated.
During another conversation, Jason Bard Yarmosky said that his goal was to reveal the inner youthfulness people retain as they age. He later said his earlier shows used his grandparents as stand-ins for a universal concept, while his newer work engages with them on a more intimate level. Addressing the fact that he is also growing old, he said that no one should want to remain young forever and that all stages of life should be enjoyed. He added that beauty should not be limited to a single definition.
His work has been exhibited in New York, Los Angeles, Paris and Brussels. Guild Hall presented his solo exhibition Time Has Many Faces earlier this year, continuing his signature themes.
In 2025, Bergdorf Goodman featured his Timeless Women in New York portrait series in its iconic windows. Sharing more details about the project, Jason said that he is inspired by how costume and fashion convey personal style and create persona, noting that the right garment can embolden a sitter to reveal identity. He was also among ten artists selected this year for Chanel and the Tribeca Festival's Artist Awards Program, which commissions original artworks for winning filmmakers.

A source at the time said they seemed at ease, with Holmes resting her head on his shoulder.
They made their red-carpet debut on August 7, 2026, at the Guild Hall Summer Gala, then attended Michael Kors' 45th anniversary celebration on August 20, 2026. On August 13, 2026, they soft-launched on Instagram with photos from a romantic Shelter Island getaway, which both reposted to Stories.
The relationship went fully public on September 1, 2026, when Katie Holmes, 47, posted a birthday tribute for Jason Bard Yarmosky, 38. She shared a carousel of them laughing and embracing each other. Katie later shared an Instagram Story with a video of Jason blowing out candles as she smiled beside him.
