Many were shocked when Katie Holmes mom wasn't with her when she delivered her first child.  Her dad was no where near Los Angeles either - both parents were thousands of miles away in Florida.

Now a report is claiming that Tom Cruise kept Katie's folks away from their granddaughter for over two weeks.

Roger Friedman writes that Martin and Kathleen Holmes didn’t get to see baby Suri up close and personal until May 4.  The baby was born on April 17.

Here's the 411:

The Holmeses were specifically not invited until Tom was back home in Los Angeles after his worldwide promotional tours and could monitor the baby’s first visit with her maternal grandparents. Tom’s mother, Mary Jo Mapother-South was there for the delivery.

So were Tom’s sisters. But, as widely reported, the Holmeses were at their vacation home in Florida when they got the news that their daughter had given birth to their first grandchild.

“They are heartbroken,” says the source that filled Roger in on this, according to his column, and Friedman assures that this person knows what they’re talking about.

But no one who’s interviewed Cruise for "MI:3" has dared asked these questions, he writes. Instead, they’ve let Cruise refer to Katie as “Kate” and do all the talking for her. The Holmeses are scared to speak out, say friends, for fear that they will be cut off even more from Katie and Suri.

Cruise's poll numbers and his box office numbers are in free fall in the US. 

Reports on actions such as this are the reason why.
