Three years after her divorce with actor Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes said in an interview that she does not regret anything about her past. The former "Dawson's Creek" stunner, who lived a life as a Scientologist after marrying the star from "Mission Impossible," had since moved on and is currently enjoying her time with daughter Suri Cruise.
"I don't really regret anything that I've done," Holmes, who will turn 37 next month, confessed in a recent interview with Ocean Drive. "I've learned from everything, and everything sort of leads you to the next place. I just keep going," she added.
The actress said that she wouldn't be where she is now had she not learned from her past. Holmes will also be the magazine's cover girl this December.
The "Batman Begins" star was in a high profile marriage with Cruise. However, according to a report relayed by US Weekly, Holmes said that her life these days is nothing but normal and added that she walks around New York with a cracked iPhone.
"I have a very normal life, and I happen to work in an industry that is abnormal," Holmes said. "Daily life, I take a train and cab; it's just about getting from here to there, and I don't care how I do it. I have to get there."
The New Yorker has been spotted applying makeup together with her daughter, a report by AOL stated. Holmes said that her daughter with Cruise has been her motivation to work hard. Suri, who remains in Holmes' custody after the marriage, has been her driving force.
"Being a parent also is a source of inspiration to just work really hard. You want to set an example-and, you know, [your kids] are what drives you."
Living a down-to-earth life with Suri somewhat gives her a new outlook in life.
"If you're having a bad day, you just take a walk, and it's not only that you see people who are having a worse day than you, it's just that you're in life," Holmes told Ocean Drive.
"You suddenly can't be stuck in whatever problem you're in because you have to hail a cab or you have to get a subway ticket," she continued. "There's more than just you. And I think the harsh winters give you a little bit of character."
Holmes divorced Cruise in August 2012 after being married for five years.
