Katie Holmes (41, "Dawson's Creek") spoke in a new interview about the time after the divorce from Tom Cruise (57) and gave insights into her life with the 14-year-old daughter Suri. In 2012, the actress moved to New York with the then almost seven-year-old and went through a "violent" time in which she "got a lot of attention", as reported by "InStyle". In order to escape the paparazzi, who were chasing them every step of the way, she sometimes went into the park with the little one at six in the morning, "when nobody saw us".
Suri's great development
An anecdote has remained in Holmes' memory to this day. "There was an incredible moment when I actually cried. Suri was six or seven and she had stayed with friends while watching a ballet at Lincoln Center. At ten o'clock I got a call: 'Mom, can you get me I took a taxi and drove to Battery Park to pick her up. She was exhausted. She fell asleep on the way home and when we took her inside the taxi driver helped me open the door and carry it in, without waking her up. He was so nice. "
Holmes is extremely proud of her daughter, who is now 14 years old. She says: "My greatest goal has always been to promote her in her individuality. To ensure that she can be 100 percent self, strong, confident and capable." It obviously worked out well: "She has developed very well – she has always been a strong personality. She selects an activity and works her butt until she is really good at it. Then she says: 'OK, and now I try the next.' She is very focused and works hard. "
