Pictured with a mystery blonde this week it seems that movie star Tom Cruise may have started to move on from his messy divorce with Katie Holmes. However, though things seem quite serene and dignified at present, here at AlisonJackson.com we have uncovered some shocking footage.

Despite her best efforts Katie’s desperate attempt to escape didn’t quite go to plan.
