We had previously read about rumors that Scientology fanatic, Tom Cruise wanted wife Katie Holmes to stay away from stick thin Victoria Beckham. But the controlling husband has eased down his rules and has allowed Katie to be friends with Victoria only if she doesn’t follow Victoria’s diet tips.

Tom Cruise has banned Victoria Beckham from swapping diet tips with wife Katie Holmes and Victoria who is happy being a buddy to Katie once again is following his warning.

A source close to the couple said, “Tom told Posh he was worried how thin Katie was getting, especially as they want to start trying for another baby soon.

“Tom was firm, but polite. He said that, although he understood Posh thought she was only trying to help Katie lose weight after Suri’s birth, he didn’t want her swapping more diet tips with Katie in the future.”

According to the same source Tom was increasingly worried about Katie’s obsession with her weight thanks to Victoria. The Mission Impossible star thinks that if Victoria stops talking about weights and diets, Katie might start gaining some weight.

Tom’s warning has gone down well with Posh, according to an insider, “Posh was gracious. She just wants to hang out with Katie again. When Katie stopped returning her calls and invites, Posh was genuinely upset. She wondered what she had done wrong, and didn’t know what to do about it.

“She asked her husband David for advice and even confided in Eva Longoria. Eva just told her to ‘keep being herself,’ and that whatever was bugging Katie would blow over.

Both Katie and Victoria are planning for another baby. Tom will be delighted if both stick thin moms-to-be exchange some weight gain tips.
