Actress Katie Holmes covers the April issue of Allure magazine and talks about her future as a single mother.

The 34-year-old ‘Dawson’s Creek’ star secured a quickie divorce from actor Tom Cruise in July 2012 and is reportedly doing well without him.

She is unsure of what the next year will bring for her.  Katie remarked, “I hope this is a peaceful year for a lot of people in the world.  When you look back on the last year, there were a lot of tragedies — Hurricane Sandy, the Connecticut shooting. I just hope it’s a good year for everyone.”

When asked if she thinks she will ever expand her family, Katie said wistfully,  “I don’t know, I’m open to it.”

Rumors suggest that she wants to become an attorney, “Well, my brother and father are attorneys, and – we’ll see.  I like the practical thinking of attorneys.”

Since the split, Katie’s main focus has been her soon-to-be  7-year-old daughter Suri Cruise, who now attends the exclusive private school Convent of the Sacred Heart in Manhattan.

Holmes has appeared in several Broadway productions, including the short-lived ‘Dead Accounts’ that ended early after a seven week run.

Katie is the face and co-owner of Alterna Haircare and also the face of Bobbi Brown cosmetics.  She claims,”I’ve been a fan of her makeup for so many years, because I just feel comfortable putting it on. And I don’t feel like I can screw it up.”

Holmes also launched a fashion line last year, Holmes & Yang. “Growing up, I was really into the supermodels. I would listen to RuPaul’s ‘You Better Work.’”  That doesn’t mean she picks out her daughters clothes. Katie admits, “She’s got a great eye, she really does.”

2012 Most Talked About Celebrity Splits

Katie Holmes will end her starring role in ‘Dead Accounts’ on Broadway far earlier than planned due to sluggish ticket sales.

After preview performances the show officially opened on Nov. 29.  The stage production was slated to run until the end of February but will go dark on Jan. 6, six weeks ahead of schedule.

The former ‘Dawson’s Creek’ actress recently got a laugh when she told David Letterman about flubbing her lines.

She recalled, “I have this kind of big speech in the second act and it’s pretty important because it goes along with the theme of the show.  I said the first line and I’m looking at Judy Greer, and I’m supposed to be angry with her, and then the second line – I didn’t remember.  I knew the point of it so I made my way there.”

According to producer Jeffrey Finn, “We are all sad to see Dead Accounts end on Broadway.  I look forward to working with this remarkably talented cast and creative team again very soon.”

According to divorce documents, Katie Holmes valued freedom over monetary gain while negotiating the end of her union with Tom Cruise.  What could have been the divorce from hell turned out to be swift and relatively painless.

The divorce is officially final leaving Katie with nothing more than child support and some firm rules regarding her daughter’s education and her religious upbringing.

TMZ is reporting that Katie did not request spousal support or attempt to subvert the prenup that protected his $250 million fortune.

The judge ordered Cruise to pay $33,333 each month by electronic transfer until Suri turns 18.  The $400,000 a year child support payments will total $4.8 million by the time his daughter is ready to head to college.

Cruise will also cover the cost of the child’s medical, dental, insurance, education, college and extracurricular costs.

The agreement stipulates that Suri Cruise will not attend a “residential school.”  One of the reasons Holmes reportedly ended the marriage was because Cruise was talking about sending their daughter to a Scientology training center.

It is clear that Holmes got what she wanted most … security for her child and the ability to raise her in a relatively normal environment.  Case closed.

For the second time in less than a week, Katie Holmes and 6-year-old daughter Suri Cruise have been involved in a car accident.

Katie and Suri were leaving Suri’s gymnastics class at Chelsea Piers Monday night when the Mercedes being driven by Holmes’ chauffeur was hit by a garbage truck around 9:30 p.m. on West 33 Street and Sixth Avenue.

“Suri was crying in the car,” says a source.

There were no injuries reported, and the car itself was minimally damaged.

Last Friday their car was struck by a paparazzi vehicle after a trip to FAO Schwarz toy store.

Katie Holmes and her 6-year-old daughter Suri Cruise spent Wednesday afternoon at the Central Park Zoo in Midtown Manhattan.

Mother and child appeared to be enjoying the experience of feeding the animals and engaging in close personal contact with other zoo guests.

Flanked by two security guards, the actress was especially attentive to her offspring.  She could be seen caressing her daughter’s hair and leaning in close while they quietly chatted.

The outing seems to suggest that Holmes is determined to live life to the fullest as a single mother just days after securing a quickie divorce settlement that gives her primary custody of her only child – details here.
