  • Story Text: Italian television broadcaster Sky Italia have filmed exclusive pictures of Tom Cruise walking inside a hotel in Rome on Thursday (November 16).
    Tom Cruise who was with several children, two believed to be Connor and Isabella from his second marriage with Nicole Kidman, appeared annoyed on discovering he was being filmed and briskly walked off in the other direction.
    Italy's media have kept a constant vigil outside his hotel in Rome but hardly anything has been seen of the star who is expected to throw a glitzy party Thursday evening for his wedding guests.
    Cruise and Katie Holmes finally left their hotel , where a swarm of media, fans and paparazzi have been waiting to catch a glimpse of the soon-to-be-married Hollywood stars.
    'TomKat', as the couple had been labelled by media, were reportedly travelling to a lunch appointment at another luxury hotel in the centre of Rome.
    Meanwhile, celebrity guests and relatives of Cruise and Holmes began arriving in Rome late in the morning to attend the highest profile wedding of the year.
    Actor Jim Carrey arrived ahead of Katie Holmes' parents, Kathleen and Martin Holmes, at Ciampino airport where they were greeted by media surrounding the airport exit.
    Surrounded by security, the wedding guests were all smiles, but didn't answer any questions from reporters.
    Later Jennifer Lopez with husband Mark Anthony arrived, followed by Jada Pinkett, wife of Will Smith, actresses Jenna Elfman and Brooke Shields. Mission Impossible 3 director J.J. Abrams was next in the seemingly never ending roll call of top names passed through the doors to waiting cars.
    Still to come - John Travolta and the Beckhams are also believed to be on the guest list for the wedding set to take place in a medieval castle 40 kms north of Rome.
