Katie Holmes’ daughter, Suri Cruise, has recently taken a big step toward independence. After finishing high school, Suri moved out of her mother’s luxurious New York City apartment and into a college dorm room, where she is now sharing space with a roommate.
In 2014, Suri Cruise lived with her mother, Katie Holmes, in a rental apartment at the Chelsea Mercantile. By 2024, Suri had moved out to start college, leaving Katie as an empty nester. Suri is now settling into a college dorm, marking a new chapter in her life.
Katie and her daughter nearly moved to a different home in the Apthorp neighborhood of New York City. In 2014, Katie made a bid on a prewar apartment there. The Upper West Side home had four bedrooms and four bathrooms.
Katie Holmes’ financial advisors suggested that renting their high-rise luxury apartment was a better choice. Because of this advice, Katie and Suri decided to stay in their current apartment.
However, their living situation changed after Suri graduated from LaGuardia High School. Before she got her diploma, Suri enjoyed some time with her classmates on the streets of New York City on June 20, 2024, right before their high school prom.
Suri Cruise looked stunning in a patterned bodice-style gown for her prom. She accessorized with a black clutch bag, a pink rose corsage, and heels. Her prom date wore a dark blue suit, and they posed for pictures together.
Everyone was dressed up for the special event.
Later, footage showed Suri, who looks a lot like her mom Katie Holmes, celebrating with her classmates while wearing red graduation robes on June 21, 2024.
A friend posed for photos with Suri, while another friend stood nearby on the pavement as cars passed by.
Suri looked happy as she posed for pictures taken by her mom in New York City.
Suri Cruise didn’t waste any time starting college at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. On August 18, 2024, she was seen moving into her dorm with help from her mother, Katie Holmes. They looked happy as they carried luggage, marking an important milestone in Suri’s life.
Reports say that while Suri was settling into her dorm, her father was allegedly enjoying life in London. The mother-daughter duo was spotted carrying luggage to Suri’s new home on campus.
The university campus is impressive, with large open spaces, a tennis court, and areas for studying, research, and relaxation. It also has the Highmark Center for Health, Wellness, and Athletics, a modern wellness center.
Several restaurants on the Carnegie Mellon University campus offer a variety of foods. One of these is the Au Bon Pain Café bakery at Cohon Center. According to the university’s website, all the recipes are “uniquely crafted,” providing students with a range of delicious options.
Katie’s daughter, Suri, will have access to a variety of food and drink options on campus, including smoothies, sodas, cappuccinos, hot or iced coffee and teas, espresso drinks, pasta, soup, and croissants. She can also choose from a customized made-to-order breakfast or lunch sandwich or salad, or grab a pre-made salad, sandwich, wrap, yogurt parfait, fresh fruit, or snack.
This Star Is Now Living Privately with Famous Spouse – He Proposed on 2nd Date & Still Loves Her at Any Weight
Delta Burke had once been in the center of the spotlight with project after project lining up for her, but after leaving “Designing Women,” her fame and work also started to fizzle out.
After having almost not-so-successful projects, the actress decided to stay out of the spotlight and live life like a regular citizen.
Despite her many changes, her husband of more than three decades declared he would still love her no matter what. Here’s a look into Delta Burke’s life.
Delta Burke came into the limelight when she won the Miss Florida title in 1974. She went on to the Miss America Pageant, won a talent scholarship, and studied at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts.
Burke got into film in 1979 when she starred in “The Seekers” and “The Chisholms.” However, she is best known as Suzanne Sugarbaker in the 1986 series “Designing Women.”
She started a production company that produced “Delta” and “Women of the House,” and Burke starred in both projects. Later, she started her clothing design company called Delta Burke Design.
Burke took the role of Suzanne Sugarbaker in “Designing Women” for five out of the seven seasons the show ran for because the show’s producers fired her.
After firing her, she said the executive producers, Linda Bloodworth-Thomason and Harry Thomason, psychologically abused her.
However, the executive producers and the show’s stars said Burke made things difficult for everybody, so they fired her. Burke said,
“Basically, it became unbearable into the second season for me. By the end of the fourth season, I just couldn’t live like that anymore.”
Burke described the work environment as bizarre, and people didn’t believe her. She then went to ask for help from people who had power, and they didn’t help her.
Even though she missed her character after a few months, she said she had no regrets about being off the show. After over a year, she said she had gotten used to her weight but wanted to lose some pounds.
But after leaving “Designing Women,” she changed her looks and was reportedly looking heavier than before in the next series she starred in titled “Dayo.”
In 2012, while shooting her show “Counter Culture,” Burke fell. The fall led to the cancellation of the show. After that, Burke stayed out of the spotlight for some years.
Later, when she was spotted going out for lunch, she looked entirely different. In place of her signature bouffant hair was a brunette bob, and she ditched the vivid lipstick for a relatively makeup-free face.
The actress who suffered very public weight battles had also lost some weight. Besides weight problems, she had battled with depression, hoarding problems, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
In 2008, she sought treatment at a psychiatric hospital, and even though she wasn’t looking forward to any work, she felt more than happy with life.
Burke, who is healthier and happier, was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. However, she said her husband, Gerald McRaney, always reminds her what to eat and what not to eat.
Despite everything she and her husband have gone through, her husband will always love her no matter what. She said,
“Mac loves me no matter what. He loved me when I got as big as a house. He loved me when I was a blonde.”
She said her husband didn’t tell her he hated her blonde hair until she returned to brunette. He always loved her through any situation and still thinks her body looks great even though she feels it does not.
Burke and McRaney met in 1987 when she was a guest star on his detective show “Simon & Simon.” He knew he had competition, but McRaney was not ready to let her go.
McRaney asked her to marry him on their second date even though his friends were against it. They never wanted him to marry an actress, but McRaney knew only an actress would understand his work hours.
In 1989, they got married, and their marriage was McRaney’s third marriage but Burke’s first.
McRaney started acting in junior high school after injuring his knees during a football session. He was a guest star on “Gunsmoke: Hard Labor” before making his big break on “Simon & Simon” in 1981.
Burke and the “This Is Us” actor never had children together, but she became the proud stepmom to his kids from his previous marriages.
The couple worked together on different projects, and McRaney revealed that, unlike other couples, they do better when they are together 24/7.
