    The life and loves of one of Hollywood's most bankable stars.

(CBS)  Katie Holmes tells Vanity Fair magazine that "it's been heartbreaking" to see the press reports about her family and her new daughter, Suri.

Since the birth of Suri on April 18, Cruise and Holmes have been hounded by tabloid and blog reports that something was amiss with their new daughter or that there was trouble on the homefront.

Holmes rebukes all the speculation in the new issue of Vanity Fair, saying "all those things were invented." To see the new Vanity Fair issue click here.

"Some of the crap that's out there — the stuff that's said about my parents and my siblings (tabloid accounts implied that Katie's family did not hit it off with Tom) — it's really frustrating the amount of s--- that's out there. And the stuff they say about Suri?! You shouldn't say that about us, and you can't say that about my child."

Holmes tells features editor Jane Sarkin in the new issue, which hits stands today in New York and Los Angeles, that the gossip "eats away at me because it's just not OK."

Why does she pay the reports any mind? "This is my future. This is my family, and I care so much about them. To see how someone as caring and good as Tom, it — to see how things can just get so twisted and turned around. I mean, where does it come from?" she says.

2Last night's broadcast of CBS Evening News with Katie Couric marked the first time the Vanity Fair images of Suri have been made public since her birth. The shots were taken for the magazine by famed photographer Annie Leibowitz and will appear in a 22-page spread in the magazine.

The cherubic-looking infant, who sported a full head of jet-black hair in the magazine spread, was being held by her parents in some of the shots made public. In one photo, little Suri appeared to be giving a love bite to her father's nose.

For her story, Sarkin spent five days with the couple and their extended family at Cruise's Telluride, Colo., compound in July. Isabella and Connor, Cruise's other children with ex-wife Nicole Kidman were in tow, including Holmes's mother and father, and Cruise's mother and sister.
