Katie Holmes News: Actress Mollycoddles Her Suri Cruise, Keeps Her Daughter Away From Friends [VIDEO]
Katie Holmes seems to be overprotective of her daughter Suri Cruise. The Hollywood actress seems to be depriving Suri of a normal childhood, because she is keeping her child away from friends of her own age.
Sources explain that Katie is overcautious because she is obsessed with her daughter's safety. When Katie was married to Tom Cruise, the media was following Suri almost every day. But although Suri does not get the same coverage anymore, Katie is still worried about the kind of people she comes in touch with.
"Katie's super-controlling with Suri's social circle, she insists on vetting any kids and their families before they're allowed to hang out with Suri. It's driven a lot of Suri's friends away, not that she had many to begin with," according to OK! Magazine.
However, Katie Holmes has an explanation for her behavior.
"I try to make our world very much an environment that's just all about being a kid without too much of Hollywood coming into that," she explains to cbs8.
Being a kid? Surely, that sounds strange! The 10-year-old is completely cut off from friends and feels very lonely, as she is not able to hang out with too many girls or boys of her own age group. Katie just spends a lot of time with Suri by taking her "shopping, to amusement parks, and to restaurants."
How can all that be a substitute for real friends? Why is Katie acting so strangely?
Rumors whisper that it is mainly because she herself has gone through so much mud-slinging from the media that she now has no option but to protect her daughter from the tabloids.
Katie Holmes is also reportedly worried that keeping Suri Cruise isolated would deprive her of the same simple childhood she had while growing up in Ohio. As Suri is also an extremely "recognizable" face in Hollywood, she might just end up becoming a hothouse plant without a normal life.
