Reason Katie, Jamie kept it secret

KATIE Holmes’ decision to hush up her relationship with boyfriend Jamie Foxx until exactly five years after divorcing Tom Cruise meant she pocketed $11.4 million, according to US reports.

The former Dawson’s Creek actress was seen holding hands with Oscar-winning actor Jamie while enjoying a quiet stroll together on a Malibu beach on Monday, The Sun reports.

Their romantic outing came five years after her divorce from Cruise was finalised in August 2012 — which has led to an old report from Radar Online about Holmes and Cruise’s alleged divorce deal resurfacing.

According to the website, Holmes agreed not to publicly date another man for five years in exchange for $5.8 million in child support and $6.2 million payment for herself.

An insider claimed: “Katie signed a clause in her quickie divorce settlement that prevents her from embarrassing Tom in various ways, like talking about him or Scientology, or publicly dating another man for five years after the divorce.

“She’s allowed to date, but she cannot do so in a public fashion, and she’s not supposed to let any boyfriend near their daughter, Suri.

Neither Holmes nor Cruise have ever addressed rumours about their divorce.

The couple married at an Italian castle in November 2006 and had one daughter together, Suri, who was born in 2006.
