A spokesman has announced that pictures of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' baby Suri will be made public "shortly", according to digitalspy.co.uk.

The noticeable lack of photographs of the newborn in the press since her birth in April has prompted intense speculation as to what the reason behind the delay could be and whether she even exists.

However, Cruise's representative Arnold Robinson is adamant that the actor does not have mixed feelings about releasing the shots.

Robinson told The Scoop: "He hasn't been reluctant. They will be making a decision to release the photographs [of Suri] shortly."
