I wanted someone you could share everything with. . . . Let's get it goin', you know? And that's Kate," says Cruise. Photo by: Ramey |
Welcome to everyday life for Katie Holmes – a maximum-speed zone in which your mission, should you choose to accept it, goes something like this: Keep up with the planet's most turbo-boosted actor. Become an instant stepmom to his kids and best pals with his mom and sisters. Delve deeply into the religion that sustains him. And prepare for the life shift that comes with motherhood. "Kate – she's just cool," the actor tells the May issue of
GQ.
Cutting loose on everything from learning the pregnancy news ("she did the whole stick test") to buying that sonogram machine ("I have it strapped to her 24 hours a day," he joked), Cruise, 43, makes it clear that he has been closely involved in Holmes's pregnancy. And his cushion-hopping enthusiasm? Undimmed. "I taught her how to ride a dirt bike in an hour and a half," said the adrenaline junkie, adding that Holmes has since received her scuba license and is planning on her pilot's license. "She's a very quick learner."
