It’s crisis talks for fighting couple Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
Battling rumours of an impending break-up, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes tried to put split stories to rest with an intimate date in New York for the actress’s 32nd birthday.
But a tense public argument – which saw Tom speaking sternly to his miserable-looking wife while firmly taking her arm, their young daughter looking on – did nothing to hide the fact their marriage is under strain.
After months of living in different countries and then separate houses, despite the fact both were in LA, this was no romantic reunion for Tom and Katie – it was crisis talks following weeks of tense phone discussions.
If the superstar couple were to call an endto their four-year union, showbiz insiders tell Woman’s Day Katie would be likely to receive an alleged $25 million pay-out.
It may sound steep, but that’s the price we’re told Tom would have to pay in return for Katie’s silence, and to maintain his close bond with their four-year-old daughter, Suri.
“In return, Katie would have to promise never to discuss their marriage, give Tom shared custody of Suri and protect her from any scandal,” a close friend of the actress says.
