The employees of a local dog rescue found the lucky pooch just a few days after she went missing, per TMZ, and as of 2020, Suri was still being a responsible dog owner by taking Honey and another cute canine out for walks. However, she decided to adopt, not shop, when she allowed Suri to welcome a new fur baby into their home in 2014. Unfortunately, Suri's rescue Chihuahua, Honey, went missing mere weeks after her adoption. According to TMZ, Honey escaped through a gate while Suri was swimming with her at the Beverly Hills home of a friend.

The Insider tackles the trending celebrity stories of the day, as well as exclusive interviews and in-depth reporting. Holmes's marriage to actor Tom Cruise,[11] which lasted from 2006 to 2012, led to a great deal of media attention. Katie Holmes recently shared how proud she is of her daughter Suri Cruise, who shows off her vocal skills in the opening credits of Holmes' new movie, "Alone Together." Katie Holmes was looking for the “highest level of talent” for her COVID-era Airbnb rom-com, Alone Together. That's why she reached out to her very own daughter, 16-year-old Suri Cruise. In her Scientology tell-all, actress and former member Leah Remini claimed the church believed Suri would be a big part of its future, saying some members looked at her as if she was "L Ron Hubbard incarnate."

However, Katie Holmes told Access that Suri's shoes were designed to be safer to move in than your average heel. Critics found another reason to pounce on Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes for their parenting decisions in 2011 when Suri was photographed with a pacifier in her mouth. She was five years old at the time, and pediatrician Dr. Ari Brown told Fox News that it was a bad idea for kids her age to still be using a binky because they might develop a bad habit. "They don't explore with hands, but instead put everything in their mouth and are therefore picking up a lot more germs," Brown said. Perhaps this explains why Suri was spotted gnawing on one of her flip-flops. In 2008, some tabloids had readers questioning whether it was wrong for 2-year-old Suri Cruise to still be drinking out of a baby bottle.

The Batman Begins star felt the need to incorporate “Blue Moon” into her movie because she loved Diane Keaton’s cover of the song so much in the rom-com And So It Goes. When Holmes opens up about what she and Suri enjoy doing together, she often describes activities they do at home. In a 2013 Us Weekly interview, she shared that she and Suri like to make their own bouquets for Valentine's Day, and she told Amazing Magazine (via the Daily Mail) that they cooked and worked on quilts during lockdown.

Desperate to be reunited with her beloved dog, Suri put posters up in the neighborhood promising a reward of $1,000 for her safe return. Holmes also had to explain photos of Suri looking cold without a coat in freezing weather. She told InStyle that her daughter had simply refused to wear any of her many designer jackets. "I said, 'Suri, I'll take the hit. Just put it on when you get cold,'" she recalled (via E!). "Every age that my child has been and my age at that time has been a good match. We kind of grew up together." In 2019, she spoke about "growing up" with her daughter in an interview with Elle UK.

However, a rep for the NVLA told X17 that the academy was unaffiliated with Tom Cruise's religion. Jada didn't deny that the school's curriculum was heavily influenced by Church of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard's Study Technology teaching technique, but in a 2009 email to ABC News, she insisted, "Study Technology is a secular methodology." "Katie is attracted to Jamie partly because he is so caring to her daughter," an insider told Hollywood Life in a separate piece.

In a video interview on Yahoo! Entertainment, Holmes spoke about why she recruited her daughter to sing in her new movie. They've attended many Broadway shows together, including "Cats" and "Finding Neverland," and sometimes Holmes takes her daughter backstage to meet the casts of the plays. Don't think for a second that Suri is growing out of wanting to spend time with her mom, either; she was photographed helping Holmes celebrate her 45th birthday in 2023.

In 2019, the “Batman Begins” actress gushed over her mini-me in an interview with Shape magazine, revealing they like to work out together. A few months before, the two made another rare appearance together as they celebrated the “Dawson’s Creek” alum’s 45th birthday in the city. Alone Together is playing in theaters now and debuts on most VOD services on July 29. So would Holmes and Sturgess reunite for a movie musical of their own? "I would be honored." And, of course, that film would have to include her daughter performing "Blue Moon" on-camera. According to The Hollywood Reporter, he confirmed in a 2013 deposition that Holmes felt like she needed to shield Suri from the religion.

"There's no communication and they haven't seen each other. Tom rarely talks about her." According to Yahoo, the 16-year-old sings a cover of "Blue Moon" that plays at the beginning of the romantic comedy during the opening credits. "Alone Together" follows two people (played by Holmes and costar Jim Sturgess) in failing relationships who end up at the same Airbnb during the coronavirus lockdown. Katie Holmes had to bring “the highest level of talent” for her latest movie Alone Together. Her 16-year-old daughter (who’s the spitting image of her mom) may not be following her parent's footsteps in acting, but she'll be singing “Blue Moon” during the opening credits.

"I'll start with the beginning of the movie and take her through the story beat by beat. Of course, I make it age-appropriate. She's four years old. But she asks all the right questions," he said. There are so many other compelling Suri stories to tell, so do you want her untold truth? "There's a definite hole there left by Tom, and Katie does her best to fill it," a source told Hollywood Life. "She's grateful to have Jamie in her life now. He's becoming more and more of a father figure to Suri and she's very grateful for that." Tom Cruise apparently believes that he can control what pictures of Suri appear online, at least when it comes to Facebook. In October 2017, Maryanna Carter (an old friend of the actor and the moderator of a Tom Cruise fan group) relayed a message she claimed came directly from the star, requesting members stop sharing photos of his daughter with one another.

Suri Cruise taught us some valuable style lessons when her age was still in the single digits, such as how an Elmo doll is the ideal accessory for a red $285 Dolce and Gabbana coat. But one person who wasn't impressed with Suri's style was "Project Runway" host Tim Gunn. "She's her mother and father's dress up doll and I feel in many ways she's a fashion victim," he told Access (via Today) in 2010. He also said of Suri's famous toddler-sized high heels, "It's really inappropriate." According to RadarOnline, the Top Gun star has been moved by his daughter's efforts to keep in touch. Cruise is reportedly "paving the way to come back into Suri's life permanently," and insiders claim it could happen sooner rather than later.

"He's contacted Suri through a third party, who he trusts implicitly, to check in and make sure she's okay," a source alleged in July 2018. "He wants her to know that he's thought of her all this time and that he got all of her messages. In fact, he read and listened to each and every word." The romantic COVID-set film Alone Together marks the second directorial work of Katie Holmes ever since the 2016 Tribeca Film Festival film All We Had. Co-starring Across the Universe’s Jim Sturgess, Alone Together is when two strangers end up staying in the same Airbnb and have to stay with each other during the COVID-19 lockdown. She was inspired to direct and write Alone Together after a piece she wrote in Vogue about how quarantining during the pandemic was a time to strengthen the bond she had with her own daughter. So, it’s no wonder that she felt her next project wouldn’t be complete without Suri having some type of role in it.

However, she's also been photographed screaming over ice cream and sporting smeared chocolate on her face, so Holmes probably should have made sure to always keep a watchful eye over young Suri whenever there were sweets in the vicinity. At age three, Suri misstepped on a wet Boston sidewalk and lost a silver heel. After seeing photographs of Suri's Cinderella moment, podiatrist Dr. Oliver Zong told Fox News that her choice of footwear put her at risk of being injured. "A pair of heels that is too tight could damage the growing bones of her feet," he added.

Tom Cruise may be ready to become a father figure to Suri, but some sources claim the position has already been filled. Katie Holmes and Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx have kept their relationship largely out of the press for years, but Holmes indirectly confirmed the relationship when her rep issued a statement calling breakup rumors "100 percent untrue." If the photos of Suri at Pride 2018 are any indication, this young lady has lost none of that spirit in the years since that interview. The celebrity scion attended the annual New York City Gay Pride Parade, where she and some friends set up a refreshments stand under the supervision of her nanny. She was reportedly selling lemonade for $2 a cup and was also offering Rice Krispie treats.

According to Star magazine (via Hollywood Life), Cruise hasn't attended one of Suri's birthday parties since she turned 7. "He's disconnected from Katie, and then de facto from Suri, because of her connection to Katie." "I always want the highest level of talent, so I asked her," the "Dawson's Creek" actress said of Suri's involvement in the project during a recent interview with Yahoo Entertainment. While we have no idea what path will be taken for Suri Cruise, it’s great to know she has the guides of two talented parents there to help her on her journey. The 2022 movie release Alone Together has a video-on-demand release right now. "She actually did sing in Rare Objects, which is the film we did last fall," says Holmes of her third feature, a period drama based on the 2016 bestseller by Kathleen Tessaro that will be released on December 31, 2022.
