heart is "broken" over the separation from daughter Suri, who moved to Manhattan with her mother, Katie Holmes, when her parents divorced earlier this year, a friend of the actor said.

Holmes and Cruise reportedly are working out their co-parenting amicably.
"He loves his kid, and he's going to be a loving presence in her life as long as he lives," McQuarrie said.
The actor has been busy working on movies to which he had committed before Holmes filed for divorce, while Holmes has immersed herself in several new projects, including a makeup endorsement, a Broadway show and the launch of her new fashion line, Holmes & Yang.
