Host: After a whirlwind romance, just have dated for just a couple of months, anounced that they are getting married and oh my gosh and now a baby. We are talking of course about Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. People magazine senior, what is your title exactly here? Is it senior edi...
Jess Cagle: Obviously, senior editor, Rene.
Host: Speak of Seals, coz he's a senior citizen.
Jess Cagle:Oh, that's true, yah.
Host: Jess Cagle is here with more. Oh my gosh, what's happening here?
Jess Cagle: Well, Tom and Katie have been dating since April. He proposed in June. And yesterday they broke the news to People that they are having a baby.
Host: And how was that news received?
Jess Cagle: Well, I mean, it's all over. It's global news. I mean, I put it up on people. com. And I think five minutes it was all over the world.
Host: Wow, what about his...what about his ex-wife Nicole Kidman? What about his kids Isabella and Connor? How...how are they taking this?
Jess Cagle: I asked his sister and publicist Lee Anne De Vette how each individual was taking it. she didn't want to single anybody out. She said the entire family, excuse me, is very excited about it, yep.
Host: Em, you know this seems like such a whirlwind. And and... I think a lot of people were skeptical initially that this romance was indeed genuine. Do you think this will quell some of that?
Jess Cagle: No, I think that he got involved with Katie, to promote his movie. And they don't probably have a baby to promote the next movie.
Host: Hahahahaha. Ok, alright.
Jess Cagle: No, it's ridiculous. Obviously, this is, it has been very, very fast. It was...it was a surprise to a lot of people but (yeah) I think that people who were that cynical about the relationship sort of have an egg on their face now.
Host: yeah.
