Katie Holmes in NYC

"After dropping Suri off to school, Katie Holmes was spotted taking a stroll through New York City on Thursday afternoon (October 11).

The 33-year-old actress donned a comfy blue sweater with jeans and a printed pink top for her Big Apple outing.

In personal news, a friend recently dished to UK’s The Sun about the “Batman Begin” star’s life as a single woman.

"Katie is just flourishing in her new life. Yes, there have been some dark moments but Katie was more than ready to embark on the next phase of her life post Tom Cruise," the source revealed.

"Katie felt that her professional career suffered because she was married to Tom and that she didn't have the final say in her acting roles," the source added."
