Who is Suri Cruise's famous mother?

The story behind the answer

Katie Holmes is Suri Cruise’s famous mother. Holmes, an American actor best known for Dawson’s Creek and films such as Batman Begins, had Suri with actor Tom Cruise.

Suri was born on April 18, 2006, about a year after Holmes and Cruise began dating. The couple married later that year at Odescalchi Castle in Bracciano, Italy, in a highly publicized ceremony. Because both parents were major Hollywood stars, Suri attracted intense media attention from childhood.

A common mix-up is answering Tom Cruise, who is Suri’s father rather than her mother. Holmes and Cruise divorced in 2012, and Holmes received primary custody under their divorce settlement. Holmes later continued working in film, television, and theater, while maintaining a comparatively private public profile for her daughter.
