• Pregnancy Controversy

  Before Suri was born, many media outlets questioned the legitimacy of Katie Holmes pregnancy. Holmes was photographed several times during her pregnancy showing a baby bump that seemed to vary in size. In some of the pictures, a visible change occurred within hours of previous pictures, making many believe that the baby bump was a fake. Once Suri was born and no birth certificate or photos were seen, critics began to comment that maybe Suri had been born weeks, or months before. This began to bring up questions about paternity, Holmes had recently split from fiancee Chris Klein and some thought he might be the father. Some even thought that Suri was the result of Katie Holmes being artificially impregnated with the sperm of L.
