Katie Holmes’ Lookalike Daughter Suri Cruise, 18, Enjoys Special Night Out With Friends

Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek’s network of contributors

Suri Cruise dazzled for the paparazzi alongside her friends as she attended her high school senior prom on Tuesday, June 18.

In the photos obtained by Page Six, the 18-year-old stunned in a patterned bodice-style gown and bore a striking resemblance to her mother, Katie Holmes, while posing with friends on the streets of New York City before their big night.

The daughter of Holmes and Tom Cruise complemented her high-low dress – which stopped at the knees – with a black clutch, gold heels, and a pink rose corsage. Her hair was styled in loose waves, with the front pieces twisted back. Her makeup look featured a mauve lip that complimented the accents on her gown.

Suri seemingly exuded joy in the photos as she hugged her friends and took pictures with her date, who looked sharp in a dark blue suit, coordinating with the young actress. In one photo, her date is seen holding her around the waist, and the pair were later spotted leaving the photo shoot hand-in-hand, however, it’s unclear the status of their relationship.

While Holmes, 45, likely dropped her daughter off at the event, Cruise was reportedly in London. The Hollywood star, 61, was seen in photos posted by Daily Mail on Monday, June 17 arriving at Battersea’s helipad in high spirits, stepping off his private helicopter amid filming for Mission: Impossible 8. After a day trip to Oxford, Cruise was all smiles, engaging in friendly conversation with the staff and even posing for photos with them.

Recently, the teen performed in the musical Head Over Heels taking on the role of Philoclea. According to Hello! Magazine, an interesting detail emerged as the Playbill listed her as Suri Noelle, using her mother’s middle name instead of her birth name, Suri Cruise, dropping her dads surname. Raised primarily by her mother in N.Y.C., Suri has reportedly been estranged from her father since childhood.
