Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise has left Melbourne and is thought to be enjoying a vacation with his longtime mate and fellow Scientologist, James Packer.
Packer inherited a billion-dollar publishing and media fortune created by his late father, the tycoon Kerry Packer.
Speculation has it that Cruise and Packer may be on board the Packer yacht, the Arctic P, that is moored in Tahiti’s Port de Papeete.
The vessel has been spotted idle over the past few months and is a convenient flight across the Pacific from Australia.
Cruise has provided guidance to the young Packer through a business crisis and introduced him to his church.
He was supportive to Packer when his father, Kerry, died and Cruise and his wife, Katie Holmes, attended the wedding of Packer to his wife Erica in the south of France in 2007.
Holmes remains at the Crown Tower in Melbourne with the couple’s daughter, Suri, three, as she prepares to film her new movie.
But she took some time out to go shopping at Target where she spent $800 AUS on toys and clothing.
Holmes and Suri and a pair of security guards did some careful browsing before they settled on a children’s bike, a Dora the Explorer piano, a Barbie doll, flannelette sheets for a child, several floor mats with heart and flower designs, board games, children’s DVDs and an Australian Rules football.
