For 20 years Tom Cruise has been wowing audiences, with his action-packed movies raking in well over $7 billion. Tom's leading-man status in Hollywood quickly started to fade after several television appearances including a testy encounter with Today’s Matt Lauer, his comments on Brooke Shields' drug use for her postpartum depression, and of course jumping on Oprah's couch. As a result, he lost his long-standing producing deal at Paramount Pictures and became fodder for parody in the town that made him a star. As he nears 50, the Top Gun actor has put his career crisis on Cruise-control, coming off the biggest box office hit of his career in Mission: Impossible—Ghost Protocol and he aims to please in the upcoming summer flick, Rock of Ages. Cruise opens up to Playboy about keeping his life simple with mother, sisters, wife Katie Holmes and his kids - Bella, 19, Connor, 17, and Suri, 6 - close to his side.

Name: Rowan Francis Henchy Date of Birth: May 15, 2003 Parents: Brooke Shields & Chris Henchy Siblings: Grier, 6 Facts: Rowan was born in New York City Her mother suffered the debilitating effects of postpartum depression after her birth and penned the book Down Came the Rain: My Journey Through Postpartum Depression Quotes: "We get crabby if we don’t talk. Maintaining family rituals that keeps us close is key, like making sure to sit down to dinner together to talk about our day as often as possible. And no cell phones at the table!” - Brooke on her family. "[I went through postpartum depression] after Rowan was born. I had a healthy, beautiful baby girl and I couldn't look at her. I couldn't hold her, smile at her. All I wanted was to disappear and die. I thought my baby would be better off without me. With help I learned what was going on inside my body and my brain. I learned I wasn't doing anything wrong to feel that way – that it was out of my control. I wrote about it because I didn't want to push it under the carpet for my children to discover. Stuff that gets unacknowledged or unexplored festers." - Brooke on her experience with postpartum depression after Rowan's birth.

Name: Grier Hammond Henchy Date of Birth: April 18, 2006 Parents: Brooke Shields & Chris Henchy Siblings: Rowan, 8 Facts Grier was born in Los Angeles, Calif. She weighed 7 lbs. & measured 20 inches long at birth Her mother suffered the debilitating effects of postpartum depression after the birth of Rowan and penned the book Down Came the Rain: My Journey Through Postpartum Depression. Grier reportedly means "vigilant" and has Scottish origins Grier was born in the same hospital, on the same floor and on the same day as Suri Cruise Quotes "I said to Rowan, 'The baby is going to live in our house.' There was a long pause, then she looked at me and said, 'She is going to live in my house?' But she's been helping me decorate the room. It's been sweet. I'm glad she'll have a sibling." - Brooke on her second daughter. "There are so few children I like. If you’re not polite, you can’t come to my house. Manners [represent] respect and kindness. I want people to like my kids, and if they’re bratty, they’ll have a harder time in life.” - Brooke on teaching her girls important life skills. "My version of being selfish has shifted. My old version was to be comfortable, to get sleep and exercise. Now it’s my children’s worlds. They’re not going to remember Mom was tired. They’re going to remember I did the weather chart or story time at school. So you just do it. And you’re tired. I sit there and think, My brain’s turning to mush! It’s the mundane stuff that’s important.” - Brooke on how motherhood has changed her. "I feel like they need me, but I feel like they're able to be more self-sufficient and their real personalities come out with their father. For my girls, mom is sort of laden with emotions. When they're sad, they want Mom. When they're hurt, they want Mom. So much of it is based on them needing me. And also, because I'm mom, I'm more of the disciplinarian. It feels like they need their dad in a sort of more independent level. My older daughter Rowan really loves watching any type of sports with her dad. She's not really interested in the sport, per se, but she has this unique bond with him about it. It's almost like she has this inside joke with her dad. They're friends; they act like buddies." - Brooke on her daughter's relationships with their father.
