Superstar Couples

After the press accused superstar Tom Cruise of “house-arresting” his own wife Katie Holmes, it looks like his little family is having the best times of their lives.

Despite nasty reports of marital problems and Tom’s control freak behaviour, which spawned even a mock website and hordes of anti-Tom Cruise critics among the public and the media, Kati Holmes told Entertainment Tonight when asked if she is ready to have more kids with the actor. The 28-year-old Katie replied: “Yes, definitely.”

(Readers from the Americas, the interview will be aired tomorrow night.)

It is not a secret that she and husband her 44-year-old hubby “have spent the year since Suri was born largely out of the spotlight.”

“We’re having the best time, it’s so amazing.”

Blame her conservative outlook in life. The actress was born in Toledo, Ohio and the youngest of five children. No doubt that she is at home with a large brood.

And finally after dilly-dallying, Mr. Cruise allowed her to return to face the camera. She is recently filming the comedy “Mad Money” with Diane Keaton and Queen Latifah in Shreveport, Louisiana, where she’s made a tradition of treating the cast and crew to snow cones, pizza and cupcakes.

Katie and Suri were recently spotted in one shop in Shreveport, where the actress’ daughter reportedly awed the owners and customers of Ladies in Waiting children’s store.

Aside from buying Suri a pink dress with white rickrack by Princess Linens, three pairs of rain boots, a blanket, some stuffed bunnies and several games, the one-year-old Suri was so friendly toward other kids. Katie even commented “everybody else’s children and said how cute they were.”

“She was really sweet.”

A few days later, Melissa Dixon and Pam Baker, the shop owners, received a cream-coloured stationery with “Suri Cruise” embossed across the top with the note: “Dear Melissa and Pam, Thank you so much for the beautiful frame for Suri. It is so sweet and reminds us of our wonderful visit to your store and our time in Shreveport. It was a pleasure meeting you, and we thank you again for this unexpected treasure. Warmly, Katie and Suri.”

Meanwhile, Tom reportedly blew £50,000 on a custom-made motorcycle and lately, bought a home for his family that cost close to $35 million in Beverly Hills, California.

Their home is a traditional-style residence built in 1937 with seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms, according to real estate sources not involved in the deal. Behind the gates, a 1.3 acres, it has a tennis court and a pool.
