Katie Holmes' parents didn't see baby Suri until 2½ weeks after the 'birth'

Cruise Baby: Katie’s Parents Had To Wait

Forget whatever it was Tom Cruise told Diane Sawyer about his relationship with Katie Holmes' parents.

The truth is, Katie's parents, Martin and Kathleen Holmes, didn’t get to see baby Suri up close and personal until the day of the "Mission: Impossible 3" premiere in Los Angeles. That would have been May 4. Suri was born in the late afternoon on April 17.

You do the math, fans. That's two and a half weeks. The Holmeses were specifically not invited until Tom was back home in Los Angeles after his worldwide promotional tours and could monitor the baby’s first visit with her maternal grandparents. Tom’s mother, Mary Jo Mapother-South was there for the delivery. So were Tom’s sisters. But, as widely reported, the Holmeses were at their vacation home in Florida when they got the news that their daughter had given birth to their first grandchild.

“They are heartbroken,” says the source who filled me in on this, and this person knows what they’re talking about. But no one who’s interviewed Cruise for "MI:3" has dared asked these questions. Instead, they’ve let Cruise refer to Katie as “Kate” and do all the talking for her. The Holmeses are scared to speak out, say friends, for fear that they will be cut off even more from Katie and Suri.

It’s not like the public hasn’t sensed something is wrong with all this. The result has been an enormous backlash against Cruise. Yesterday’s box office numbers for "MI:3" were even lower than the day before. The movie took in a mere $2,783,719 on Wednesday, down 13 percent from Tuesday’s $3,204,660 according to boxofficemojo.com. This is a big problem since "MI:3" is playing in 4,000 theatres, one of the widest releases ever for a feature film. At this point, if tonight’s numbers aren’t much, much better, "MI:3" will begin to self-destruct.

If you’re looking for context here, compare "MI:3" to "Spider Man 2," a movie that played in a comparable number of theaters. On the first Tuesday and Wednesday after its weekend debut, "Spider Man 2" took in, respectively, $10 million and $9 million. "MI: 3" is very far off that track.

If there even is a baby, that is reallly fucked up. What a control-freak freakazoid.

[darksithbunny]

Terrible. Control freak. Maybe the baby's real daddy will step up. Who is it again? Josh or Chris? I am so confused.

[buttmunch]

I think it's some low-level pr guy in London who doesn't even realize he's become a daddy.

[LynnieD]

^^Yup, that's the one Buttmunch....

The day is going to come very soon when Katie will be pleading with her parents to help her get out of this mess. My wish is they'll be vacationing it up again and too busy to fit her into their schedule!

[Butterfly]

I can’t believe his family was welcome but hers weren’t, because we all know that women want their Mother “In Law” there and not their own mothers. Tom is a piece of shit.

[angelais]

What a fuckhead. Katie has been brainwashed, as far as I'm concerned. Some say, "well she's an adult, she makes her own choices" but like Butterfly said, who the hell wants their mother in law at the "birth" and not their own mother?

Just another sign that this whole pregnancy thing is a farce. That little midget needs an ass beating.

I'm done venting now.

Notice there have been no photos of Katie out with a stroller or carriage ... no photos of her carrying a blanket-wrapped bundle.

There are usually at least a few pictures of stars with their new babies floating around before the official pics are released.

[KandyKorn]

^^Yeah, that's what I've been thinking....I guess Tom wants a lot of money for the first pictures of the alien child....I feel bad for this kid.

But there was that fabulous shot of her 'nursing bra'--and no one could possibly see through that ploy to make us all believe there actually was a baby.

I read someplace that her parents went away on purpose to try and disguise the fact that they weren't wanted at the event. What a sad situation

[OhSnap]

So, I'm guessing that Tom had to be there so that katie couldnt be alone with her parents. Scary!

[twitchy]

Poor stupid Katie.

You know I'm really pissed at Katie. Anyone else? She's getting off way too easy in the court of public opinion. Brainwashed or not, who completely dumps their parents for this moron (Cruise)? Obviously Katie's parents have only wanted the best for her and looked out for her best interests. Cruise - not so much.

Unfortunately, Katie's parents are in a bad position because TomKat will use Suri as a pawn. They don't have a leg to stand on if they want to have any part of their granddaughter's upbringing. Tom is EVIL personified!!!

[Icepik]

Maybe her parents are getting a huge slice of that money pie?

Katie $15 million, her parents $5 million? Maybe??
