Katie Holmes shocked onlookers by revealing huge black-and-blue bruises on her legs last night.

The actress smiled at waiting photographers, but her navy shift dress revealed the painful-looking injuries.

Despite the late hour, the wife of actor Tom Cruise accessorised her simple outfit with a pair of oversized designer shades.

Perhaps the 29-year-old hurt herself entertaining two-year-old daughter Suri.

Hands-on mum Katie thinks nothing of kicking off her shoes to join her pretty daughter on the trampoline or at play.

Or maybe she picked up her injuries during rehearsals for  All My Sons.

She is currently working 12-hour days in preparation for her broadway debut.

The New York production of Arthur Miller's play is expected to open in October.

While Katie and Suri entertain themselves in New York, her Top Gun husband has been working in Hollywood, with the couple frequently making cross country trips to see each other.
