"Becoming a mother has been the most amazing experience — in an instant, you become strong. You have to be a little bit wiser; it's the most important job in the world." Katie Holmes definitely devotes a lot of her time and energy to parenting her 13-year-old daughter Suri! She has been responsible for the bulk of Suri's parenting and is by all accounts a very engaged and reliable parent.

Suri Cruise is the daughter of actress Katie Holmes and actor Tom Cruise. Her parents are divorced, and she lives with her mother in New York City. To date, she has not pursued a life in the public eye, and has a lifestyle that is pretty typical for a 13-year-old. Her mother is very protective of her, but she does share frequent updates of their activities on her social media accounts. The two are known to be very close, and Katie Holmes is definitely a hands-on kind of mom. If their lives are low-key overall, there is one area in which they splurge - their homes. Since relocating to NYC, they have lived in a series of amazing apartments that are truly top of the line! In addition to the New York abodes, Holmes also owns a home in the exclusive and prestigious Calabasas area of Los Angeles, California.

Famous Parents and Upbringing

Born on April 18, 2006, in Santa Monica, California, Suri Cruise's parents are two very famous celebrities. Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise were married from 2006 to 2012 and since their divorce, Cruise has not played a substantial role in his young daughter's life. After her parents' divorce, Suri moved with her mother from California to New York City. While Suri is often photographed by the paparazzi when out with her mother, Katie has done a tremendous job of shielding her young daughter from the spotlight.

Family Net Worth 

As a child, Suri does not really have her own net worth. Current estimates state that she is worth $500,000 but those funds undoubtedly come from her parents. Her mother, who has primary custody of her, has a net worth currently estimated at $25M. Tom Cruise, her father, has a current net worth estimated to be an astounding $570M! There is no doubt that Suri will always enjoy a life of luxury!

Katie first found fame on the cable network series, Dawson's Creek. From there, she went on to star in a number of hit movies and on Broadway. She has since expanded her talent set to include directing and producing. Katie has not remarried and is a devoted mother to her only child, Suri. When she first relocated to Manhattan with her daughter, the pair rented an apartment for $12,500 per month! There have been numerous reports of Holmes buying an apartment for herself and her daughter, but there has not been any confirmation or statement released by Holmes or her people. Most recently, the pair were renting a penthouse in the Chelsea area of the city for a hefty $25,000 per month!

In addition to their New York City apartment, the mother and daughter pair also own a mansion in Los Angeles. Located in the exclusive Calabasas area of the city, this mansion is something else! Katie purchased the home in 2014 for $3.795M according to various reports. After five years of owning this spectacular piece of property, Holmes has listed the estate for a cool $4.625M. The home is located in the exclusive and ultra-secure gated community called The Oaks. The home sits on a half-acre lot and borders an undeveloped piece of land. 

During their time there, Suri surely loved the basketball court and swimming pool while Mom probably spent a lot of time relaxing around the sunken fire pit with friends. The home is designed in the Tudor style and contains over 6,000 square feet of living space! The house includes six bedrooms and six and a half baths. There are outdoor seating areas in addition to the spacious pool area. The master bedroom is very grand and includes a sitting room in addition to an en suite bathroom and outdoor sundeck.

It is not clear why Holmes has listed the property, but if it sells at the current listing price, she will make almost $1M on the sale! Katie and Suri definitely consider New York City their home, and Suri has spent the majority of her school years there. It is unlikely that the small family would move away from Manhattan, but when it comes to the lives of celebrities, one never knows!
