Tom Cruise told Germany's leading tabloid , "Wetten Dass …" in its Monday
edition that he wanted to tie the knot this summer with fiancee Katie Holmes,
after the birth of their baby and the upcoming release of his new film, "Mission
Impossible III."
"First the baby, then the film," he was quoted as saying. "Then, in summer,
we want to get married. I won't let this woman get away."
Cruise is both starring in and co-producing the third installment in the
"Mission Impossible" series, filmed in China and Italy. The film is due to be
released on May 5, 2006.
Speaking on the program Wetten, dass ..? (loosely translated: "Wanna Bet?"),
Cruise said he arrived directly from the airport but worried he would have to
head right back again "because Katie could be having our baby at any minute."
In fact, he said that two pilots were at the ready to fly him home should
Holmes go into labor. "If Katie calls, I'm gone."
He also assured his interviewer that Katie was feeling good reports People
Magazine.
"If Katie calls, I'm gone," Cruise said, insisting that he wanted to be
present at the birth of their first child.
She didn't call. He also said they've picked out a name for the baby, but he
didn't reveal what it is.
Sky news Uk. reports , a recent shopping trip provided a rather big hint..
The pair bought furniture to kit out the bub's new nursery, and their choices
suggest they're pretty sure it's going to be a daughter.
Tom and Katie spent $20,000 in LA's posh Petit Tresor boutique, and their
haul included: nursery rhyme wallpaper, a nappy bag, a stuffed elephant and a
teddy, as well as lots of designer baby clothes.
27 year old Katie Holmes, star of such movies as Batman Begins, Thank You For
Smoking and the TV series Dawson's Creek, has been taking time out of the public
eye to have her first child.
