It’s been a tough year for newly-divorced Katie Holmes, but the 34-year-old actress is rumoured to have found love again - in the form of jazz musician Peter Cincotti.

Holmes, who split from fellow actor Tom Cruise last July, has been secretly dating singer and pianist Cincotti, who at 29 is five years her junior.

The couple have been keeping a low profile by arriving at and leaving venues separately, but Katie has already introduced Cincotti to her Dawson’s Creek friends. Sources say the couple have a lot in common and are “a good fit”.

They are rumoured to have been on a string of dates since meeting at the New York Observer’s 25th anniversary party two weeks ago.

"They have only been seeing each other a few weeks but he's incredibly charming, the type to buy her flowers and treat her like a lady,” the source told Grazia magazine.

"Katie's had a few dates but nothing came of them. But her friends are happy she is seeing Peter. This could be the perfect time for Katie to really work out what she wants from life."

Holmes is also said to be looking for a new home to share with her daughter Suri, six, as the lease on her New York apartment is due to end soon.

When asked if the actress was dating Cincotti, her representatives replied “no comment”.
