Katie Holmes and daughter Suri walk with dogs in New York City

Katie Holmes steps out in NYC with daughter Suri and their dogs… after following Thandie Newton who called Tom Cruise hard to work with

Katie Holmes was seen stepping out in New York City this Friday with her 14-year-old daughter Suri Cruise.

The 41-year-old The Secret actress and her teenaged mini-me made sure to take the precaution of wearing face masks amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

They were seen carrying their two beloved pooches while out and about, and Suri was also holding a large doggy bed.

Katie shares her daughter with her ex-husband, celebrity Scientologist Tom Cruise, whom she was married to from 2006 to 2012.

This month Katie followed Thandie Newton on Instagram after the latter spoke about a ‘nightmare’ experience working with Tom on the 2000 film Mission Impossible II.

‘I was so scared of Tom. He was a very dominant individual. He tries superhard to be a nice person. But the pressure. He takes on a lot. And I think he has this sense that only he can do everything as best as it can be done,’ Thandie told Vulture.

One night they were filming a scene she felt was not ‘very well-written,’ during which ‘Tom was not happy with what I was doing because I had the s***tiest lines.’

She recalled that Tom ‘gets so frustrated with having to try and explain that he goes: ‘Let me just – let’s just go do it. Let’s just rehearse on-camera.’ So we rehearsed and they recorded it, and then he goes: ‘I’ll be you. You be me.’

Thandie continued: ‘So we filmed the entire scene with me being him – because, believe me, I knew the lines by then – and him playing me. And it was the most unhelpful…I can’t think of anything less revealing.’

The Westworld actress remembered: ‘It just pushed me further into a place of terror and insecurity. It was a real shame. And bless him. And I really do mean bless him, because he was trying his damnedest.’

Meanwhile Katie initially began dating Tom in 2005, and seven weeks into the relationship, they were engaged. 

Their Scientologist wedding was held at the Castello Orsini-Odescalchi in Bracciano in November 2006, seven months after their daughter Suri was born.

Katie filed in 2012 for a divorce that was finalized only 10 days later, with Suri’s mother retaining primary custody, though Tom could visit, according to People.

Ron Miscavige, father of Scientology leader David Miscavige, told the MailOnline in 2016 that Katie’s misgivings about Scientology – including the effect it could have on Suri – contributed to her decision to leave Tom.
