Crusie looked the spitting image of mom Katie Holmes while spending Sunday alongside a gaggle of her girlfriends in Soho. Suri celebrated her 16th birthday recently on April 18th, meaning she is now legally able to apply for a New York driver’s license. But from photos we’ve seen in the past she enjoys walking around the big city. The 16-year-old is proving to be a fashionista like her mom, rocking a colorful strapless dress, chic large bag, and flip-flops. In one of the photos, she had a huge toothpaste commercial-approved smile. Since her parents both have beautiful smiles, it’s hard to tell whose smile she got.

Katie Holmes' 14 year old daughter Suri Cruise celebrated her birthday this week with a lot of love from her mother on social media. Us Weekly also got some rare details about Suri's life as a teenager and what her relationship with her mom is like. Katie doesn't post about her daughter often, but she shared two tributes on Suri's birthday. "💕Happy Birthday Sweetheart!!!!!!! 💕 I am so blessed to be your mom. May this year be incredible! 💕💕💕💕" she wrote in her first one.

Katie Holmes is celebrating her mini-me daughter Suri Cruise's birthday with some rare pictures. Katie spoke to ELLE.com in November about how she tries to be a fitness role model to Suri. A second source said that Cruise has a close group of friends and is "well liked." She is also a talented athlete. “Suri is very naturally athletic and excels at physical activities like gymnastics and dance,” that source said.

Although the teen has distanced herself from her dad, she is seemingly getting into the family business. Suri has lived a low-key lifestyle with her mother in New York ever since the “Dawson’s Creek” alum filed for divorce from Tom in 2012 — allegedly due to his involvement with Scientology. The Batman Begin actress went on to recall how, during isolation, she reinforced her mantra to be more present in her daily life.

True, the picture in question doesn't actually show, you know, Suri's face or anything, but it's still a picture of the elusive, effortlessly cool teen so we'll take it. "I painted, we had a sewing machine, so we were making quilts, we were cooking; we were on a perpetual vacation," Katie told the sophomore issue of Amazing magazine. Katie previously revealed that the pair enjoyed many crafty hobbies during the height of the pandemic during lockdown.

It's clear that Suri has developed her parents' talents for performing, and showcased her incredible singing voice back in 2022. Suri was heard singing the opening credits of Katie's film, Alone Together, when she was just 15. Katie has raised Suri to be incredibly down-to-earth and the pair have a close relationship.

Holmes also recalled how spending time with a friend with a young child made her reminisce about raising Suri. In one of the pictures, Holmes cradles her look-alike daughter in arms. In another, Suri smiles for the camera while giving mom a big hug. Suri is set to go to college at the end of the summer, making 2024 a big year for the newly-adult.

This will be a huge transition for the actress, as her only child is likely going to be flying the nest. "A very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my sweetie," the star wrote at the time. Despite being raised in the public eye — even appearing on Vanity Fair as an infant — Holmes has since shielded her daughter from the spotlight.

The Dawson's Creek star clearly likes to make her daughter feel special on her big day. Last year, Holmes celebrated with several birthday cakes and a glittery "Happy Birthday" sign. Mom Katie Holmes is ringing in the birthday of her teenage daughter with a special tribute on Instagram, offering a glimpse into the lives of the usually private mother-daughter duo. To celebrate her daughter turning 15 on Sunday, Holmes, who is famously private about the teen, posted three Instagram photos of Suri taken throughout the years.

While not so much is known about Suri, Katie has given an insight into her creative personality in the past. What's more, the only daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes turned heads while keeping dry from the rain, with a miniature bright pink frilly umbrella.

"Every day, kids get a little further away from you," she told the magazine. In fact, Suri appeared on the cover of Vanity Fair with Holmes and Tom Cruise when she was just a few months old. As the years went on and Holmes and Cruise went through a public divorce, the attention surrounding the family grew.

Suri, naturally, matched said crown to her pink and white, tie-dyed top. "Hobbies such as sewing, painting and writing became new hallmarks of satisfaction and having had time at home to just be," she wrote. "To listen. To live for a moment in time without the pressure of results and instead appreciate the natural rhythms of mother and daughter was the most precious gift."

Suri has kept largely out of the spotlight since her parents' separation in 2012. She was raised in Los Angeles in her early years, before relocating with her mom Katie to New York City. Still, like many parents, Holmes has struggled with watching her daughter grow up. She also talked about balancing motherhood with her career as an actress and director. The Batman Begins star opened up about raising a child in the limelight to Town & Country in 2017.

Katie Holmes took to Instagram on Wednesday to post a picture of her pre-teen daughter. The black-and-white snapshot showed the little lady wearing a birthday tiara in honor of her 12th trip around the sun. While a source told us at the time that Tom has played “no part” in his daughter’s life, another Hollywood insider told us this week that the father-daughter duo haven’t seen each other since 2012. The teenager, whose birthday is April 18, dressed casually cool in a red sweater with white vertical stripes, a white silk skirt and brown sandals. "I was happy to become a mum in my twenties," said the actress, who gave birth to Suri when she was 27 years old. "It's been nice that our ages fit … how do I put this? Every age that my child has been and my age at that time has been a good match. We kind of grew up together."

Suri Cruise was all smiles while out and about in New York City with friends ahead of her 18th birthday. She shared never-before-seen photos of Suri in a touching birthday tribute on Instagram. "Taking time in Washington Square Park with a friend whose little child was taking his first steps brought me back to when my own child began to walk," she wrote. "I felt nostalgic and in awe of the power of time and the continuation of life."
