After performing a monologue from the movie ‘To Kill a Mockingbird,’ Katie Holmes signed with an agent who sent her audition tape to the casting director of the movie ‘The Ice Storm.’ This marked the start of her career in 1997 with the role of Libbets Casey in ‘The Ice Storm,’ opposite Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver. Her real fame came a year later when she joined the main cast of ‘Dawson’s Creek’ as Joey Potter. She later co-starred as Rachel Dawes in ‘Batman Begins.’ Other notable movies and TV shows she has appeared in over the years include ‘Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark,’ ‘Ocean’s 8,’ ‘Rare Objects,’ and ‘The Kennedys.’

15 MILLION DOLLAR FORTUNE
According to CelebrityNetWorth, Katie Holmes’ net worth is approximately $15 million. Holmes earned $30,000 per episode during the early seasons of ‘Dawson’s Creek,’ with her salary increasing to $175,000 per episode in later seasons. As the show’s leading star, she appeared in all 128 episodes over six seasons from 1998 to 2003. Her subsequent work in TV and movies further solidified her wealth.
Holmes’ marriage to actor Tom Cruise ended in 2012. At the time, Holmes’ fortune was valued at $10 million. Although Cruise and Holmes had a strict prenuptial agreement, Cruise was ordered to pay $400,000 per year in child support for their daughter, Suri, for 12 years, ending in 2024.
ALLEGATIONS ABOUT SURİ CRUİSE
The Daily Mail published an exclusive report claiming that Suri Cruise, the 18-year-old daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, gained access to a significant trust fund after her birthday in April.
“It is a part of the divorce deal that a trust fund provided by Tom Cruise be shared with daughter Suri Cruise when she turns 18, and it is substantial,” the outlet credited an “unnamed source” as saying.
“She was allowed to access it when she turned 18 in April. The rest of the money will become available to her once she enters her 30s. The trust fund was carefully confronted so that she does not get all the money at once and becomes overwhelmed.”
Suri Curise allegedly became a millionaire in her own right thanks to a trust fund inherited from her father Tom Cruise and her mother. Katie Holmes mentioned these allegations in her post on her Instagram account. On the news that Suri Cruise is a millionaire, she wrote, “Completely false. Daily mail you can stop making stuff up,” she wrote. “Enough,” she added in the caption.
The publication also claimed that Holmes had set up her own trust fund for Suri, which Holmes also denied.
