Katie Holmes Rushes Home To Celebrate Wedding Anniversary 11/18/08

Katie Holmes jetted home to Los Angeles after a recent performance in New York - so she could celebrate her second year of marriage with husband Tom Cruise. Holmes took off to the west coast after Sunday's (16Nov08) matinee performance of her hit Broadway play All My Sons.

The couple reportedly spent a quiet evening at their L.A. home on Monday (17Nov08) before the actress had to rush back for her regular Tuesday show. Cruise and Holmes married on 18 November 2006 in a star-studded ceremony in Italy - to the dismay of critics, skeptical their relationship was a mere publicity stunt.

In an interview last year (07), Cruise said of the lavish wedding, "As big as it was from the outside, it was a very personal experience and something obviously I'll never forget." The pair was reportedly joined by their two-year-old daughter, Suri, and Cruise's adopted children from his marriage to Nicole Kidman - Isabella, 15, and Connor, 13 - to mark the event.
