Her mother makes sure she lives a relatively ordinary life.

But when it comes to her father, Suri Cruise enjoys a taste of the high life.

The six-year-old boarded actor Tom's private Gulfstream IV jet as she headed to London last week to spend a week in his company.

A source told E!: 'Last week, Tom sent his private jet to NYC to pick up Suri so she could come to London and spend some time with him.

'He is currently staying at a hotel just outside of London. She spent five days with him.

'He has been working quite long hours on the set, but he was able to have some time off to be with her

'They had a really lovely time.'

After her visit Scientology buff Tom, 50 was visibly jubilant when he returned to filming his latest project Kill in the Mall in London on Saturday, where he filmed a thrilling motorbike sequence.

His ex-wife Katie Holmes, 34, meanwhile took full advantage of Suri's absence to make a trip of her own.

She was spotted dressed to the nines as she left a party in Beverly Hills last Thursday.

But she was back to her usual dowdy self when she took her daughter to see the New York City Ballet's presentation of The Sleeping Beauty at the weekend.

And the Batman Begins actress was back in dressed down mode as she enjoyed some sporting action on Wednesday.

For she was spotted giggling with glee as she watched the New York Knicks play the Golden State Warriors in their NBA clash at Madison Square Garden.

She wore a pair of ripped jeans and a blouse, and seemed on cloud nine as she chatted with a mystery man sitting next to her in a smart suit.

And her grin was even wider at the end of the match, as the Knicks managed to squeak through by just four points as they won 109 to 105.
