Baby number 2 for Katie Holmes & Tom Cruise

Could Katie Holmes be giving husband Tom Cruise the best Christmas present of all – a baby? With all the evidence lined up, it certainly seems likely. The actress has fuelled speculation in Hollywood that she’s pregnant with her second child by stepping out with all the tell-tale signs of a mum-to-be – the flat shoes, bags and blankets carefully placed to hide her tummy and, more importantly, the noticeable baby bump.

After tongues began wagging in August, Katie – who has been filming the new movie Jack And Jill with funnyman and fellow parent Adam Sandler – has had an undeniable glow as she approaches her 32nd birthday on December 18. And as she left the lavish Allure Of The Seas cruise liner in Florida with four-year-old Suri in tow, the brunette beauty seemed more conscious than ever of covering up. Having filmed scenes on board the mammoth ship for the film, which tells the tale of a man whose twin sister arrives for Thanksgiving then refuses to leave, a smiling Katie kept a tight grip on Suri’s hand as they disembarked.


''Her loose-fitting dress and big cardigan ignited whispers among onlookers, but when she donned a fitted red dress between takes on set that seemed to reveal a bump it really got tongues wagging.''

Combined with her tired out look while shopping in West Hollywood last week, it seems clear the star has some exciting news. What do you think? Please comment.
