Suri Cruise's stroller spotted on porch of CO home

Stroll_x17_0717_375 Holmes_x17_0717_300 x17online and TMZ posted photos of Katie Holmes over the weekend at her and Tom’s Telluride, CO retreat. However, catching Katie was not the focus of the photographers – what they wanted to see was baby Suri! However, the closest they came was getting a glimpse of a pink and tan Bugaboo Cameleon ($879) parked on the porch by a cooler – unused, of course!

Us Weekly still has their ‘When Will We See Suri?’ counter clicking -  currently at 90 days. Before Tom and Katie, the longest amount of time a high profile couple waited to show their child (in the past year) was Britney Spears and Kevin Federline, who waited 26 days to officially introduce their son Sean Preston, now 10 months. However, given that Tom and Nicole Kidman didn’t officially introduce Bella and Connor to the press for three years, we may have awhile to wait! That is, unless the paparazzi snaps them beforehand.

seems like a lot of money to spend on a stroller that is not used. Obviously they thought the same thing if you look close at the TMZ pic it is sitting out beside the trash :o )

- Lis on

there is an offical introduction and seeing a kid carrier board a plane (i.e. Ben Afleck’s violet – no offical picture, but shots of carriers and a baby blanket)

suri doesn’t exisit – this is all a big hoax. tom’s closest friends haven’t seen the kid. what does that tell you? and they have asked to see the kid.

Katie doesn’t look like she has been nursing.

and there are photos of tom and nick – holding connor and bella as babies going in and out of places – just not an offical photo.

for a man who prostelized his whole relationship, who used songram photos to sell a film – he is being super shaddy about this

- please on

Maybe everyone is talking about the “official” photos where Tom is holding Isabella and Nicole is holding baby Connor on a balcony, but I remember reading a Vogue article about Nicole where they traced her history as a fashion icon and one of the photos included a candid shot of her, Tom, and Isabella walking through a park in early 1995-Tom is holding Isabella’s hand as she toddles beside him. So she was photographed before 1996-just not often.

I really don’t see why everyone is so surprised that Tom and Katie are keeping Suri away from the media-look at all the attention they’re getting by shielding her! Tom may have acted insane over his relationship with Katie, but when it comes to his kids, he has always been intensely private. I see no reason why he would treat Suri differently than Connor or Isabella with regard to showing her in public.

Also, why do so many people act like they are entitled to see her? Just because countless celebs sell photos of their newborns for millions of dollars doesn’t mean Tom and Katie have to. As curious as I am to see what she looks like, I really respect Tom and Katie for choosing not to sell her off and put a price tag on her. I think Tom worked the media into such a frenzy over his exploits with Katie that now they’re hungry for a new story because Suri hasn’t been seen. I hope y’all feel pretty silly when she does show up.

Oh, and residents around the Colorado town where Tom and Katie are staying have reported spotting Katie with Suri, with one being quoted as saying, “I saw her! She’s got thick black hair!” Just a side bar.

Excellent post Lauren. I couldn’t agree more about the general public and media feeling a sense of entitlement when it simply isn’t anyone’s business.

Was the photog who snapped these most recent shots from Telluride camped out in their backyard and hiding behind trees or what? Kinda creepy in my opinion.

- rex on

The only thing that annoys be about them is that they were SO public with their relationship, Almost to the point where we didn’t even care to look anymore. Now that they have a baby (this lovechild they were so open about to the press) we can’t don’t even really know if she exist. I am not saying exploit your children But when you are famous you either strive for a private life or you don’t. And they only want attention when Tom-Tom is promting something or has someone to publically bash. I just think that they should be consistent, not “look at us- we are so happy and in love”, now “go away”. I don’t know- just a thought!

- Crystal on

She exists. People need to get over their cray theories. No wonder they want to hide her as long as possible. Celebs can get around the paps at times.

- alisa on

We’re entitled to see a picture of her because we had to endure all the BS and hoopla of Katie’s pregnancy and Tom and Katie’s relationship being thrown at us by Tom EVERY SINGLE DAY for the past year.

We all survived that, Lord only knows how, and now we deserve to see the outcome!

- JoJo on

I don’t want to sound mean or wish anything bad on anyone, but maybe Suri never left the hospital…

I work in an NICU and we had a celebrity baby back in March. The press was all over the birth, stating that baby and mom were doing well. I don’t know where they got that info from, but the baby was doing very poorly (and mom wasn’t doing so well either).

It took these celebrity parents about 3 months to tell the press that their baby was still hospitalized…

Maybe the same thing is going on with Tom and Katie??

PS: why would anyone leave their 900$ baby stroller near the trash ??

- NICU_nurse on

hmm I don’t see trash anywhere near the stroller, it looks like a cooler to me.

- shaylee on

Anyone else find it strange that we just so happen to get a picture of the baby right about the tme everyone is starting to believe the whole thing is being faked, last week the birth certificate and now the picture of the stroller, i dont know sounds really odd to me does anyone else feel this way???

- Katee on

the people who keep screaming – oh tom is so wonderful he is protecting his kids – give it up

you are either paid for by the church of scientology – or you are hypocrites

you are looking at a website dedicated to showing off celebrity babies – so if you think that celebrities should not publish photos of their kids why are you even reading this site

- full of it on

It doesn’t really seem like he’s protecting her if he’s not letting her see the light of day. It doesn’t seem like the poor kid has ever been outside. If this whole thing was faked I really pitty Katie, that sort of thing would be really hard emotionaly.

- Smileyme on

In fact I pitty her if it wasn’t faked too, not ever going out with her baby and being separated so much.

- Smileyme on

Wow Katie does look like crap!! But I did too, my baby screamed and cried almost all day until she was 2 1/2 months old. I was so embarassed to take my colicky baby out into public, maybe they are having the same situation! Plus Katie does look like big foot in one of the photos, and all this time they were saying sweet Suri was bigfoot!

Best of luck to them! Hopefully we see a baby soon

- sarahluvs on

I agree Katee!

I doubt the baby is still in the hospital, why would they leave her and travel all over?

I’m so torn over if she is real or not but if she is, maybe she really is older than the media believes her to be and they are trying to hide her till she is old enough where we wouldn’t really be able to tell (even though it would be obvious no matter what). I dunno but there is some sort of fib or SOMETHING going on.

- Nicole on

if the kid isn’t tom’s – and the kid was born earlier than would make sense for their relationship – why didn’t they just say it was a preemie?

they could have even done some song and dance about her being a preemie and how worried they were – the worry would have gone into the PR for Mi3

Who does their PR – Britney Spears?

interesting that there was also no baby shower?

I don’t think there need to be public photos – but a nursing mom going overseas for her boyfriend doesn’t make sensee (they could have said suri came with them, but they didn’t); you don’t see a pampers truck coming to the house or normal signs of someone who has a child; also tom doesn’t have the kids for the summer so suri isn’t seeing her sibs?

- why didn't they on

Of course she looks depressed. Everywhere she goes, she hears “Your baby doesn’t exist, shame on your for faking your pregnancy.” How can we tell these people that we see too much of them together when they are dating and now that we don’t see enough of them together or with their daughter. I wish them all the best of luck and happiness. You show us Suri whenever you damn well feel like it.

I wanted to show my son off right after he was born but that is because I don’t have photogs following me around all the time and criticizing my every move. Leave them alone and let them be a family.

- Bethie on

The fact that we haven’t seen Suri is probably all part of their publicity scheme. Look how much attention they’re getting by not showing her!
As for how Katie looks…cut her some slack, the girl has a 3 month old!

- Anna on

I’d love to cut her some slack but I seem to have misplaced my two assistants and my pilot and my private jet today so I’m a little annoyed that I have to go get that cherry diet coke I’m craving myself. lol.

- crzymaid on

Excellant post Lauren. :)

- michie on

It’s a ploy ;P I’m not sure if Suri exists or not. I just know there is something very FISHY going on. Maybe there was a stillbirth? Or there is a problem with Suri and they want to protect her (the radioactive waves from the sonogram machine could have hurt her; seriously)? Maybe it’s a publicity stunt? I have no idea. Something just doesn’t add up though.

- Jess on

Great post Lauren and it took much longer for us to see Baby Violet. Much longer then Britney’s kid. And the sense of entitlement amuses me, no you are not entitled to see their kid even if they went to your house and did a personal PDA session for you.

- mystique on

It’s not really fair to criticize her for how she looks. We are so used to seeing her all made up for a movie or premiere. But in her normal, everyday life, she doesn’t have to look that way every moment, especially after having a baby.

When I worked, I always had nice hair, make-up and clothes. But after my baby was born, there wasn’t really any time or energy for primping. Feeding a baby every two hours around the clock, and never having a full night’s sleep, I was wiped out, even with help from my family.

I think Katie looks great. I’m not crazy about the whole TomKat relationship, but I do think Katie is one of the prettiest celebrities out there.

- LaMama on

ITA Lauren with your post. Plus even Brad and Angelina that always showed Zahara and Maddox besides the people cover, you haven’t seen Angelina out with Shiloh and when she was she was covered up more than the other 2 kids ever were. Violet Affleck also wasn’t shown for awhile either, nor did her parents sell her baby photos.

- raquel on

I’m just curious…if these residents in CO have seen Suri (as previously posted), why is it the “paps” haven’t caught a photo of these alleged outtings?? It seems they are STILL on top of snapping a photo of this baby, yet they have missed ALL of the opportunities! But the townsfolk have seen her…sounds weird to me. Either the “paps” are slacking and miss all these outtings, or they just haven’t taken the poor kid out of the house…
As for the stroller, maybe it was one of their “swag” gifts? And they just don’t care for it as much as another one?? Just a thought?

- momof2girlies on

Actually, there HAVE been pix of Ange carrying a covered-up Shiloh…

- Kim on

“Actually, there HAVE been pix of Ange carrying a covered-up Shiloh…”

And the links were posted here, at that! Time for another excuse.

- PiercingBlueEyes on

As I do appreciate good gossip… this whole Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, Suri thing is just getting OLD!!!!!!!

- Stephanie on

Can they take out an injunction or something to stop the paps publishing the pictures?

- Em on

Yahoo posted a story that says that Leah Remini has seen Suri and that she has dark hair and dark eyes. Didn’t Tom say that she had blue eyes? “Leah” also says that Suri is normal sized for a new born. This is all in the new US Weekly. The story is on Yahoo’s homepage.

- staceymay on

The thing I don’t get is that obviously the house is staked out but the paps, they are more than likely there 24/7, at least ONE of them trying to get the money shot. So how is it that there’s a picture of the stroller, but not one of someone putting it out there? Or a picture of her arriving and taking a blanketed baby inside? Or one of her actually using the stroller? If she had been using the stroller it’s not like she would roll it inside and then put it on the deck. She would take Suri out of the stroller, and then leave it out there and go inside with her, all of which takes time. It takes me about 5 minutes to get all my crap together and then get my daughter out of our stroller. I just don’t see how there’s no pictures of any of that.

- Mommyx1 on

If people are actually commenting on the placement of a stroller, I can only imagine the things that will be said about poor Suri when she is actually seen. It seems there will always be those that doubt she is the biological child of Tom & Katie. I can hear it now: comments about how she doesn’t look like them, looks too young or too old, etc. I don’t know why there’s such an effort to prove that she doesn’t exist? It’s almost like some people want it to be one big hoax; like they can’t wait for the fall of Tom & Katie. That just seems really strange to me.

As amusing as some of these theories are, it’s getting old, WAY OLD!

I am starting to feel terrible for this little girl and the horrible things that are being said about her and her family. I would imagine that Connor and Isabella are being adversely affected by all this too. It could be argued that if Tom & Katie would just show the world a picture of Suri that it would stop the madness. I doubt it. I personally think that the rumors and speculation will forever surround her. I think it’s sad!

Here’s the story: http://et.tv.yahoo.com/newslink/15235/
Leah only says, “She’s a newborn and normal size!” It was an unnamed friend who described the baby as having dark eyes. But here is what TomKat’s own publicist had to say about that: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/30/AR2006063001644_2.html

“The couple’s publicist assured us that Suri is quite the looker. “She’s an angel,” Cruise mouthpiece Arnold Robinson told us, noting that the tiny tyke has “jet-black hair and piercing blue eyes.” Alas, no photos were offered up for confirmation.”

BTW, that statement was first printed July 1 in the Washington Post. She’s been said to have been blue-eyed since she was born. So another great job for US Weekly’s crack research department, lol.

- PiercingBlueEyes on

It’s my understanding that all (or at least most) babies are born with blue eyes. My son’s eye color changed from blue to hazel brown when he was about 6 months old.

It doesn’t seem strange to me that Tom said her eyes are blue and now it’s being reported they are brown. Her eyes may have changed color and that’s perfectly normal.

- gargoylegurl on

Anyone feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t blue eyes that change color start out as a dull or grayish blue rather than a bright (aka piercing) blue? Also, doesn’t this color change usually happen when babies when babies are 5-6 months old, at least? And Tom’s eyes are blue, Katie’s hazel, so where are these dark eyes coming from, the Tooth Fairy? So for this sighting to be legit, we’re to believe that the girl’s eye color changed completely from bright blue to brown in less than three weeks, when she’s barely three months old. Right. Is it really that horrible to believe that this “sighting” is not legit?

- PiercingBlueEyes on

^^Okay, so hazel eyes can have some brown in them, but the rest of the argument stands. Piercing blue eyes at 2 months don’t turn to dark eyes at 3 months.

- PiercingBlueEyes on

My son’s eyes turned from a dark blue (don’t know that I would call it a piercing blue???) to hazel brown. Beyond that, I don’t know much about it. All I know is what I’ve read & what I know happened with my son, beyond that, I have no idea? (What I’ve read is that eye color can change anywhere from the first week of birth to age one, but usually occurs by 6 months.)

I don’t think it’s necessarily difficult to believe that the “sighting” of Suri was made up, but I do think some people are grasping at straws in attempt to prove that Suri doesn’t exist. While I have no more proof than anyone else, I find it more believable that she *does* exist, but of course that’s just my opinion. 8)

- gargoylegurl on

Do we really have to rehash all the theories on every post about Suri? It’s getting really redundant.

- Ali on

I think leah remi was paid off, lol i dont know but its fun coming up with stuff because all of this seems completly fake, so i dont know i guess will see.

- Katee on

Very well said, Lauren =)

I wouldn’t expect to see her until the wedding, and maybe not even then… but we will see her someday. Until then, folks need to lay off and take the tinfoil off their heads. LOL =P

- Erin on

LEah is a Scientologist! Therefore, she has no credibility outside of the cult. DUN DUN DUN!

- nobody on

I think most of the comments I am reading in the blogs and in the media are really nuts. Come on guys, get a life! Tom is just living HIS life and he is really happy with Katie and he has a beautiful family. You think he cares about what you are writing here? If I were Tom I would show my baby to no one. A family is not a circus. I would never show my bay to the world if I were him. Family is sacred and none of your business. As per the way you speak you seem to be entitled to everything. Sorry, that is only true in your minds. In the real wprld somebody sane would do exactly what Tom is doing. He is keeping his family safe from all of you!!!!!
