By LILY JOBSON
Katie Holmes was all smiles in her first sighting since ex Tom Cruise awkwardly shrugged off a Father's Day question amid his estrangement from their daughter Suri.
When asked about his plans for the upcoming celebration at the Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning premiere on Monday, Tom said he will be 'just having fun, man'.
The actress, 46, brushed off Tom's unbothered attitude for the upcoming celebration as she enjoyed a night out at Tod's Cocktail Party in New York on Tuesday.
She wore a stunning strapless brown dress, complemented with a chic white handbag and stylish heels.
Tom and Katie's daughter Suri, 19, who was raised by her mother in New York, dropped her father's surname last year after years of being estranged.

Tom, 62, was seemingly caught off guard when a E! News journalist stopped him on the red carpet to ask about the looming celebration.
He was asked: 'Father's Day is just around the corner. What would an ideal Father's Day look like for you?
He paused and said, 'You know...' before trailing off and shaking his head as his gaze moved to something in the distance. 'Just having fun, man.'
Without referencing any of his kids, the father-of-three, who also broke his silence about his romance with Ana de Armas at the premiere, then redirected the conversation to his action films.
'Making movies, big adventures, having a great time,' he added.
Tom is reportedly close to his daughter Isabella, now 32, and son Connor, now 30, both of whom he and his second wife Nicole Kidman adopted when they were married in the '90s.
He was first married to Mimi Rogers from 1987 to 1990 before getting married to Nicole that same year.
Tom and Nicole were together for 11 years before their 2001 split.

Five years later, Katie gave birth to their daughter Suri in April 2006, and went on to get married that same year.
They eventually called it quits in 2012, and since then, Tom has long been estranged from their now-teenage daughter Suri.
In the comments section of the YouTube video, a slew of fans seemed appalled by the 'naughty question.'
'Making movies? That's definitely not a Dad activity. His loss,' one YouTube user commented.
Another added: 'Seeing the daughter he has abandoned for a decade perhaps?'
One person pointed out that he was 'not interested in answering the father question' and called his estrangement as 'his biggest failure.'
Some people were shocked by the 'wild question' as others slammed Tom for his lack of a relationship with his youngest child.
'A simple question about Father's Day and he can't answer it. He has gotten to a point where all he can talk about is movies and his love of movies. What about being a parent, Tom? There was a time when that was important to you. Sad for this man.'

She is currently studying at Carnegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania and frequently travels back to New York City to spend time with her mother, with whom she has a very close relationship.
Last year, it was reported that Suri's alleged trust fund from Tom had kicked in after she turned 18, but Katie quickly slammed the claims as 'completely false.'
'I don't want a target on my child's back,' she explained in an Instagram comment in December 2024. 'It's dangerous.'
