They’ve barely been apart since they married, but now Tom and Katie are living separate lives. Erin Craven reports.
It is the longest Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have been apart in their two-and-a-half-year marriage, but after three weeks away from his wife, the 47-year-old superstar isn’t exactly sitting at home pining.
At the time of going to press, the power couple had not seen each other since July 7.
And while Katie, 30, films Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark in Melbourne, former homebody Tom has reportedly thrown himself into the Hollywood social scene.
Tom hit the town on several occasions, including a wild night out at celebrity hotspot Hyde with close friends David and Victoria Beckham — and he looks to be enjoying his newfound bachelor-style life.
Never a wallflower, Tom burned up the dance floor with the fresh-faced crowd at the hip nightclub while the DJ pumped out Jackson 5 songs.
On July 13 Tom attended a Beyoncé gig; just five days later he was seen hanging out backstage at a Coldplay concert.
Tom’s behaviour stands in stark contrast to the picture Katie recently painted of their blissful married life.
“We like to be together,” she said in March. “We play Yahtzee, board games, Scrabble …”
Meanwhile, Katie appears to be loving the freedom she is experiencing Down Under. It’s far from her usual regimented Hollywood lifestyle and the oppressive security measures that are part and parcel of her life in the US.
Last week, a smiling and clearly relaxed Katie blended in easily with locals as she and little Suri, 3, ate macaroons and sipped drinks at Laurent Bakery in Melbourne’s Albert Park. Katie has even been seen shopping at the local Target.
