Katie Holmes' only child, who she share with ex-husband Tom Cruise, has quite the year ahead of her!
The notoriously private teenager is facing not one but two milestone moments in her life this year, and is likely excited for them both.
Katie's mini-me will become an official adult come April, when she turns 18 on the 18th, followed by another transition several months later.
That's because Suri will be leaving high school, and is likely to go onto college. It has been previously reported that Katie is keen for her daughter to stay in New York City to study, but Suri - who is interested in the arts - may well choose to move further a field for her higher education.
While not that much is known about the teen, it's known that she's an incredibly talented singer. In 2022, Suri sang in the opening credits of Katie's film, Alone Together, when she was just 15.

She said she would do it and she recorded it and I let her do her thing. "That's the way I direct in general: It's like, 'This is what I think we all want - go do your thing'." The mom-of-one was asked why she chose Suri for the job and she said: "I always want the highest level of talent, so I asked her."

"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.

Let me tell you, I danced to it in the living room, and it still holds up. It was fun."

To make sure she is 100 per cent herself and strong, confident, and able. And to know it." Suri lives full-time with Katie and is believed to be estranged from her dad.
