Jamie Foxx is ‘very happy’ with Katie Holmes, his friend Claudia Jordan says
The old Katie Homes-is-dating-Jamie Foxx story is back, but this time there’s a real person to attribute it to: Claudia Jordan.
The former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star confirmed the relationship Tuesday on the Allegedly podcast hosted by comedian Theo Von and filmmaker-journalist Matt Cole Weiss.
The guys were asking Jordan about an online list of 28 men whom she’s alleged to have slept with, naming some of the names and getting a yeah or nay (it was mostly nays). When Foxx’s name came up, she said “never,” firmly, though she noted that he was a good friend.

One of the hosts then asked if Jordan liked Holmes for Foxx.
“He is very happy with her,” the two-time “Celebrity Apprentice” alum said. “I like that he seems very happy.”
While an E! News source said Tuesday that the relationship is long-running and “not a secret among their friends,” a People source said in March 2015 that Foxx and Holmes were friends and had been for a while. “This is not some intense romance,” that second source said.
In October 2013, Foxx himself called the dating rumors “100% not true.”
“In fact,” he told Entertainment Tonight, “it’s quite hilarious because we simply danced at a charity event along with a lot of other people.”
