The actress, 45, who shares Suri, 18, with ex Tom Cruise, 62, doted on her only child and put her arm around her as the pair ran errands in the city during Suri’s fall break from college.
Katie cut a chic figure in a geometric print sweater and black coat, paired with grey trousers and ballet flats.
Her brunette locks were styled in soft waves and she showed off her radiant complexion by going make-up free.
Suri wrapped up in a denim shearling jacket and striped trousers with tan boots as she spent quality time with her mom.
Katie Holmes reunited with her daughter Suri Cruise in NYC on Wednesday – amid the teen’s first semester studying at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh
Suri is studying fashion at the prestigious college – with estranged dad Tom footing the $65,000 a year tuition bill.
‘She is a smart girl, and she is turning into a very intelligent mature young woman,’ an insider recently revealed to DailyMail.com. ‘She has a very close group of loyal friends, and she knows exactly where she comes from.’
Suri’s mother on the other hand is said to be ‘overwhelmed’ at the prospect of Suri going off to Pittsburgh for college. ‘Katie takes great pride in her but is also extremely overprotective,’ a source shared.
Katie, who shot to fame on the teen drama Dawson’s Creek, started dating Tom in 2005 and got engaged to him seven weeks into the relationship.
Their Scientologist wedding was held at the Castello Orsini-Odescalchi in Bracciano in November 2006, seven months after Suri was born
Katie filed in 2012 for a divorce that was finalized just 10 days later.
Katie retained primary custody of Suri while Tom was granted visitation, via People.
Ron Miscavige, father of Scientology leader David Miscavige, told the MailOnline in 2016 that Katie’s misgivings about Scientology – including the effect it could have on Suri – contributed to her decision to leave Tom.

Tom has not been seen out in public with his daughter for around a decade, and sources have claimed he now has little involvement in her life – pictured 2010
The Top Gun Maverick star reportedly paid Katie $400,000 a year until Suri’s 18th birthday, and will now send money for her college fees.
Tom has not been pictured with his daughter in 11 years, and in 2018 it was alleged that he had created distance between himself and Suri.
‘Every person is allowed to see their child if they wanted to,’ an insider told Us Weekly. ‘He chooses not to because she is not a Scientologist.’
