Tom Cruise’s Gift to Katie Holmes on Her Birthday Was Considerate
People usually notice and expect rich film stars to gift their loved ones precious and expensive things on their special days. Therefore, no doubt what Tom Cruise gifted Katie Holmes on her birthday took time for the world to digest.
Cruise was married to American actress Kate Noelle Holmes from 2006 to 2012. The couple had a brewing romance back then and Cruise did an amazing thing to surprise not only Holmes but the entire world.
On one of Holmes’ birthdays, Cruise gifted her a sewing machine. Although it sounds a bit weird, it was a very pleasant and thoughtful present from Holmes’ point of view. Holmes said (via Yahoo):
My husband got me a sewing machine for my birthday and my mom grew up making curtains and pillows and everything, and it made our home very warm, so I like to do things like that with my daughter.
Holmes loved sewing with her daughter Suri, which is why Cruise came up with that out-of-the-box idea. The Firm star really did fulfill the wishes of both his wife and his daughter with a single gift. Though on the surface, the birthday gift may seem a bit bizarre, it’s thoughtful of him when the motive is considered.
Katie Holmes and Her Daughter Share the Same Interests
Tom Cruise seems to have had two designers with him during his marriage with Katie Holmes. Many people are aware that Holmes is an avid seamstress, but it was really a surprising revelation that even Suri was interested in styling. Cruise himself believes that Suri is born stylish.
Since her childhood, Suri has sported a wardrobe full of heels and designer clothes. Like any other supportive parents, Cruise and Holmes always supported her to work on her own fashion. The Jerry Maguire actor said (via Yahoo):
She was just born that way. I don’t know what to say. She really creates her own outfits.
Cruise always found it adorable how Holmes always did creative things with Suri. The mother-daughter duo would draw, create, and sew things, which was always a beautiful sight to Cruise.
