New York: Ever since Katie Holmes, the ‘Batman Begins’ actress, got engaged to Tom Cruise and embraced his Scientology faith, she is not allowed to be alone — ever. In an incident that raised eyebrows recently, Holmes was not allowed to go to the bathroom alone, reports the New York Post.

Holmes was accompanying Cruise to a taping of a show called ‘The View.’ At one point Cruise reportedly asked where the bathroom was and took Katie with him into the men’s room. An insider working for the magazine said that later when Holmes had to go, “three Scientologists followed her in”. A representative for the show said, “We don’t follow guests to the bathroom”. Concerns were especially raised since Holmes has been spotted “looking like she hadn’t slept in weeks”.

Cruise and Holmes are enjoying a whirlwind romance with both actors’ movies doing well. But speculations still abound about the affair being a publicity stunt. — HNS
