We call that strong genes!

Katie Holmes and her mini-me daughter Suri Cruise were pictured as they stepped out to celebrate the “Dawsons Creek” alum’s 45th birthday.

The actress wore a sheer, long-sleeved black dress with feathers, white boots, a small black purse, and an ivory coat for the occasion.

Suri, 17, whose father is actor Tom Cruise, wore a gray winter coat, a maroon scarf, black tights, and black ballet flats, tucked her hair into her scarf, and stood nearly as tall as her mother.

Holmes and Tom Cruise were married from 2006 to 2012. Since the divorce, the actor, a member of Scientology, revealed that he has not seen his daughter in years and is currently not a part of her life.

In early 2023, the Barman Begins actor spoke of her daughter revealing that she was protective of her only child.

She told Glamour magazine at the time, “What has been really important for me with my daughter, because she was so visible at a young age, is I really like to protect her. I’m very grateful to be a parent, to be her parent. She’s an incredible person.”

Suri is expected to graduate from high school in June 2023 and will be attending college in the fall of 2024.

The youngster is also following in her parent’s footsteps. She recorded a cover of the song Blue Moon for her film Alone Together. She also sang in the soundtrack for the 2023 film Rare Objects – which her mother Holmes had written, directed, and starred in.
