Cruise posed for a Tom Munro spread for Details and he told the magazine he hoped to settle down again. "I'd like to have more kids," he said. "But I'm not rushing into it. I like long-term relationships." Photo by: TOM MUNRO / DETAILS MAGAZINE

And, of course, the couple must also deal with headlines and strangers questioning their sincerity. Until now, Cruise has been more quiet about his love life (Winfrey called him “an intensely private person”); three and a half years after he and Kidman announced the end of their marriage, he has never spoken publicly about the reasons for the breakup.

This may explain, in part, why polls reflect skepticism about his very public relationship with Holmes, which comes on the eve of War of the Worlds (opening June 29) and Holmes’s film Batman Begins (June 15). DeVette shrugs off such doubt. “The last person in the world who needs publicity,” she notes, “is Tom Cruise.”

The question remains: Why is Cruise suddenly so effusive about his love life? “When he’s happy and he has something to share,” says DeVette, “he wants other people to share in the happiness.” And as Cruise himself told Winfrey, “Anyone who’s not happy for me, they’re just not invited to the party.”
