According to a source, Katie Holmes is much happier now that she has split from Tom Cruise. The insider reveals that Katie feels so free now that she isn’t with her movie star husband anymore, and doesn’t worry about anything – she’s found a whole new life for herself as an independent mother and is also enjoying her work because she gets to make all the decisions for herself:
“Katie is a new woman, she feels refreshed, free of Tom and doesn’t have a worry in the world…When before she used to fret if she was ever single, now she’s happy to be alone. Katie’s enjoying her independence and is working on herself right now.”
The source says she has been able to spend much more time with her family which she is happy about too:
“She’s been enjoying the company of her family a lot more, something she couldn’t really do when she was married to Tom.”
Katie is glad to be able to steer her career in the direct that she wants to go because before Tom strongly influenced what projects she worked on:
“Tom also influenced what movies she appeared in, so she was unable to steer her career in the way she wanted to. Now, she has full control over what she wants to do and that freedom is exciting for her.”
