Katie Holmes

  • Profession: Actress
  • Place/Date of Birth: Ohio, 18 December 2020
  • Associated with: Tom Cruise

It’s thought 27-year-old Katie - who had the 7lb 7oz baby at St John’s Hospital, near Santa Monica - stuck to the’silent birth she and Tom, 43, had allegedly planned. As devout followers of Scientology, it was claimed the pair would follow a bizarre tradition that encourages mums to deliver babies without making any noise. A hospital worker is quoted by the Daily Mail newspaper as saying: "You couldn’t hear anything coming from the room. "She may have been giving birth but she was as quiet as a mouse."

Another source told The’sun newspaper: "Everybody in the room was told to stay silent and the nurses made hand signals. But Katie did indicate’she wanted an epidural to help with the pain. "Tom recorded the whole thing with a camera and said it was the most beautiful moment of his life."

It’s a girl! - April 19, 2020
Tom Cruise welcomed the newest member of his family into the world last night after his girlfriend Katie Holmes gave birth to Suri - a baby girl. According to Cruise’s rep, the child weighed a healthy 7 pounds, 7 ounces and was 20 inches in length. Both mother and daughter are doing very well. Everyone is now back home.

The birth follows one of the most highly-publicised pregnancies in recent memory. Although it’s true that the birth was completely silent in the order of a scientologist birth, the rumour about Cruise eating the placenta appears to have been a red herring.

The name’suri has its origins in Hebrew (meaning ’princess’) or in Persian (meaning ’red rose’). It’s also the name of a shaggy breed of lama, but it’s unlikely that this influenced their decision.

This is the first time that Katie Holmes, 27, has given birth. Cruise has two other children whom he adopted during his marriage to Nicole Kidman: Isabella, 13, and Connor, 11.

Katie has been banned from speaking to her baby - April 11, 2020
Katie Holmes has been banned from speaking to her baby for a week after it is born, it has been reported. The pregnant actress has agreed not to talk to her new arrival, believed to be a girl, for at least seven days after she has entered the world, in accordance with fiance Tom Cruise’s Scientology beliefs.

Katie, who is due to give birth any day, has already promised Tom she will deliver the child in complete’silence, and she will also have very little contact afterwards. A source told Britain’s Closer magazine: "Katie respects Tom’s dedication to Scientology. She is devoted to him and wants to bring up the child the’scientology way."

L. Ron Hubbard - the founder of the’strange’sci-fi cult - writes in the religion’s creed, that all followers must live by, that new born babies must not hear their mother speak for a week so they will not associate their voice with the trauma of birth. The creed also states that immediately after leaving the’safety of the womb the baby should "be wrapped somewhat tightly in a warm blanket, very soft, and then left alone for a day or so" and no medical examinations must take place within the first week of the baby’s life.
