Suri Cruise looked so grown up on Wednesday when she she was captured heading on vacation with her mother, Katie Holmes from New York.

The mother-daughter duo were pictured getting into a car with their luggage as they headed off for the Easter weekend. Suri’s beautiful long hair took centre stage of the pre-holiday snaps. The 17-year-old donned a pair of fabulously vibrant red trousers covered in white swirls, a corduroy navy blue jacket with a shearling collar and black trainers.

Meanwhile, mom Katie oozed glamour wearing an oversized army-green jacket and beige trousers. The actress slipped on a pair of dark sunglasses, and opted for a pair of chunky black sandals for footwear.

The mother-daughter trip came just weeks before Suri turns 18 on April 18. Katie is exceptionally private about her daughter, and whether or not she will go to college has yet to be revealed.

However, Suri has been involved in two of her mother’s movies, Alone Together and Rare Objects, where she can be heard showing off her impressive singing voice.

Born in 2006, Suri Cruise is the only biological daughter of Tom Cruise. From a young age, she was called a “Hollywood princess” as she lived a life of luxury surrounded by luxury goods, nannies and security guards. But everything changed completely after Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes divorced in 2012. Since then, Suri Cruise has never seen her biological father again.

No longer receiving protection from her father and instead living a rather simple life with her mother, Suri Cruise has grown up very well. Tom Cruise’s daughter did not become rebellious because of her parents’ broken marriage. On the contrary, the girl is said to be changing for the better.

Perhaps due to her mother’s influence, even though she has turned 18, Suri Cruise still does not have an official social network account. Sharing in Marie Claire, Katie Holmes said that limiting the time she uses social networks is a way to help her and her daughter have more opportunities to talk and understand each other better.

To help her daughter form a good personality while growing up, Katie Holmes also regularly takes Suri to participate in social activities. Sharing on Today, Katie Holmes said that she and her daughter often spend time helping homeless people. This act of kindness is almost a daily occurrence in the lives of Suri Cruise and her mother.

Therefore, it is likely that the youngster may want to follow in her movie star parent’s footsteps for a career in Hollywood.

Prior to their latest appearance in New York, the duo were spotted back in December for Katie’s 45th birthday celebrations. The pair couldn’t have looked more similar in the photos.

Katie looked effortlessly glamorous,  sporting a grey and black leopard print maxi dress, which she paired with classic white boots.

Meanwhile, Suri was wrapped in a cozy grey tweed coat, oversized maroon scarf and black pointed-toe heels.

Katie shares Suri with her ex-husband Tom Cruise, who is reportedly estranged from his daughter. Tom and Suri haven’t been pictured together in public for over ten years.

He does however pay £400,000 a year in child support which will come to an end when she turns 18 in April.

The former couple had a whirlwind romance and were engaged in June 2005, two months after they started dating. They welcomed Suri one year later. The pair split in August 2012.

Katie and Suri couldn’t be closer and Katie has previously opened up about becoming a mother at 27: “I was happy to become a mom in my twenties. It’s been nice that our ages fit … how do I put this? Every age that my child has been and my age at that time has been a good match. We kind of grew up together,” she told Elle UK.
