Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson's Relationship Explained
If you self identify as someone who's been (maybe delusionally) obsessed with Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson since Dawson's Creek, it's happening. And by "it" I mean Katie and Joshua have reunited for another project—and considering they're both currently single, the internet is doing its thing. But for those of you who are brand new here, we've laid out a timeline so you can catch up to our level of unwell.
Production begins on Dawson's Creek, which is when Katie and Joshua meet for the first time. Their chemistry is absolutely off-the-charts on screen, which makes sense: turns out they were dating in real life. More than that, Joshua was Katie's first love.
Katie confirms their relationship to Rolling Stone (via the Daily Mail), saying "I'm just going to say that I met somebody last year, I fell in love, I had my first love, and it was something so incredible and indescribable. I feel so fortunate because he's now one of my best friends. It's weird, it's almost like a Dawson-and-Joey type thing now."
She adds, "He's been in the business so long, and he's really helped me. I respect him as a friend and as a professional."
QUICK BREAK FOR THIS:
Joshua and Katie call it quits after season one of Dawson's Creek, but they stay super close friends throughout the show's entire run.
We're blessed with this photoshoot. And they're "just friends" at this point, mind you!
Dawson's Creek ends, the world never fully recovers, etc.
On that note, making everyone watch this real fast:
Joshua reveals that Katie got in touch with him after her divorce from Tom Cruise, saying of their convo, "Like any old friend, it was like, 'Oh, hi how are ya? What's going on?' 'I had a kid' 'Yeah, that's crazy, I heard!' It was nice, it was very nice, actually."
Joshua tells Conan O'Brien about how awkward it was to film Joey + Pacey romance scenes after he and Katie broke up:
The Dawson's Creek cast reunite in Entertainment Weekly and fans immediately read into things.
Katie tells The Sunday Times that she's in touch with the cast "every now and then" and that "everyone's grown up and is busy, but the bond will for ever be there."
Joshua says "Katie and I are very close" during a podcast. Hmmm!
Amid news breaking that she and Joshua are reuniting for the film Happy Hours, Katie says the project is a "testament to friendship."
Filming begins on Happy Hours and I think the vibes speak for themselves....
That brings us up-to-date, but we'll keep this updated!
