NO HOLDING BACK

Holmes and Vitolo Jr. may have known each other at least since July. Back then, Vitolo Jr. commented with two dancing emojis on one of Holmes' Instagram posts.

Hollywood Life attributes Vitolo Jr.'s bubbly personality to Holmes' decision not to shy away from public intimacy in her new relationship. They claim that Vitolo Jr. knows little about Holmes' past romances.

VITOLO'S ACTING CREDITS

It's a far cry from the very private six-year relationship Holmes had with Foxx. Before that, Holmes was married to fellow actor Tom Cruise. The pair share daughter Suri, 14.

Vitolo Jr., who has met many celebrities at work, has had some screen time as well. According to ET, he made an appearance in "Royal Pains" and "Inside Amy Schumer."

HOLMES HEAD OVER HEELS

Yet it's Holmes who seems starstruck by her new partner. ET described the actress as a "[giddy] teenager in love" when it comes to Vitolo Jr. This appeared to be the case in early September.

Dressed comfortably in a pair of jeans and a tank top, Holmes continuously grinned from ear to ear as she enjoyed some wine with Vitolo Jr. in Manhattan, New York. She looked smitten.
