Suri Cruise looked all grown up as she was spotted buying bouquets of flowers, seemingly for mum Katie Holmes, in New York City on Mother’s Day.

The 17-year-old daughter of Holmes and Tom Cruise was photographed leaving a SoHo flower shop holding two bouquets of pink and purple blossoms, reports Page Six.

She looked the spitting image of her famous mother as she stepped out into the sunshine on Sunday to buy the bouquets, dressed casually in blue jeans and a white top.

It is not known with certainty who the flowers were for, but it’s possible at least one floral arrangement went to the 44-year-old Dawson’s Creek alum.

Holmes didn’t showcase the Mother’s Day flowers, but she did take to Instagram on Sunday to honour her own mum with a sweet message.

“Happy Mother’s Day! I am so grateful to my mum for all of her love, support, inspiration, patience, generosity and kindness,” the actress captioned a black-and-white photo of Kathleen Stothers-Holmes. “And for letting me borrow from her closet, giving me all the handmade quilts she’s created, and so generously making me laugh throughout the years. I love you mum. ️”

Suri, who is very close to her mum, remains mostly under the radar.

Last month, Holmes spoke about wanting to shield the teen from paparazzi after growing up in the spotlight thanks to her famous parents.

“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,” the star told Glamour at the time.

“She’s an incredible person,” Holmes said of her daughter.

Page Six reported in March that 60-year-old Cruise hasn’t seen the teen in years and has “no part” in her life.

Cruise, who was married to Holmes for five years before his belief in Scientology caused their relationship to crumble, also shares adopted children Connor and Isabella with ex-wife Nicole Kidman.
