Taking a break: The performer's outing comes not long after she split up from her partner of several months, Emilio Vitolo Jr
Holmes and Vitolo Jr officially split last month, with a spokesperson for the actress telling Us Weekly: 'The pair have parted ways amicably but remain friends.'
A source also spoke to the media outlet and noted that, although the two had broken up, they were still on good terms.
Specifically, the insider expressed that the pair's 'relationship fizzled. They figured out they’re better off as friends. There’s no drama that went down with the breakup.'
They also expressed that the two genuinely appreciated each other's company and that Holmes was prioritizing her private and professional lives at the moment.

Moving fast: The couple was initially spotted together during a PDA-filled date in NYC that occurred in September; they are seen together in October of last year
'Katie and Emilio really enjoyed their time together — it just simply didn’t work out. She’s focusing on being a mom and her upcoming projects,' they said.
Earlier this week, the chef was seen during a lunch date with a mystery woman, having already moved on from his former partner.
The day of the restauranteur's outing, former professional baseball player Alex Rodriguez was seen leaving Holmes' apartment building, but it has since been revealed he was not visiting Katie and didn't even know she lived there.
