Open Romance, No Commitment Needed
Joshua Jackson stars opposite Katie Holmes in ‘Happy Hours,’ a film trilogy she is directing about childhood sweethearts reconnecting.
The two are getting cozy off camera too, and insiders confided Holmes, 47, is not bothered by Jackson’s ongoing dalliances with other women – she even says no-strings-attached fun suits her just fine.
“Kate says spending time with Josh makes her feel alive again, and she doesn’t want to shut that down just because she can’t possess him,” a source said.
Although her friends are worried she’ll get hurt – and the Alone Together creator admitted she’s not immune to getting jealous – she says it’s worth pushing herself out of her comfort zone, that’s how happy he makes her.
Fun Now, Heartbreak Later?
Sources said Holmes described her renewed relationship with Jackson as fun despite the emotional risks.
“Josh has always been upfront about what he is doing. He’s told her he’s not ready to be committed, so it’s not like he’s sneaking around,” said the source.
“Katie says she can respect that. The fact is, she’s not had any romance in her life in a long time.”
According to an insider, the former Mrs. Tom Cruise claims what she has with Jackson is so fun, it’s worth the risk of heartbreak.
“She insists she’s strong enough to handle whatever happens, but that hasn’t stopped her friends from worrying – it’s obvious she’s playing with fire.”
