Katie Holmes and Emilio Vitolo Jr. have called it quits.

"They split several weeks ago. There was no drama," a source tells PEOPLE of the pair, who were first linked in September.

"It was amazing while it lasted, but they are at very different places in life. Emilio has no hard feelings. His life is in N.Y.C.," the source adds. "Katie can't wait to get back to work and to travel again."

A rep for the actress did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment. In a statement to US Weekly, the rep confirmed the breakup and noted the two "remain friends."
