ONE of Hollywood’s worst-kept secrets has just been revealed — it seems Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx are officially an item.

The pair have been either ignoring or at times flat-out denying rumours of a romance for three years now, but it took a loose-lipped famous friend of Foxx’s to finally confirm their pairing.

Speaking on the Allegedly podcast, former Real Housewives of Atlanta star Claudia Jordan was asked about her relationship with Foxx.

“[He’s a] good friend of mine. Never [hooked up with him],” she said.

When asked about his relationship with Holmes, Jordan said, “He is very happy with her. I like that he seems very happy.”

Speculation about the pair started way back in 2013 when they were snapped dancing together at a charity event. Since then, they’ve been intensely private about their romance, with Foxx publicly denying they were an item last March.

“Oh come on, you guys have been trying to get that to stick for three years,” Foxx told a paparazzo in Los Angeles at the time. He went on to insist he and Holmes were “just friends” who were working together on an upcoming project.

“That’s all it is,” he added.

While the pair’s relationship is apparently no secret to their friends and family, they’ve been meticulously careful to shield their relationship from the public eye.

“They have remained most careful not to be seen in public together and they strategically co-ordinate their arrivals and departures in able to be at the same place at the same time but not attract too much attention,” E! reports.

Foxx, 48, has two children from previous relationships but has never been married. Holmes, 37, famously married Tom Cruise in 2006, the pair divorcing six years later. They have one child, 10-year-old Suri Cruise, together.

After three years of speculation, it took Foxx’s friend Claudia Jordan to spill the beans in a new interview. Picture: Jason Merritt/Getty Images
