Sydney - Hollywood glamour couple Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes defied rumours that their relationship was on the rocks with a great show of affection while cruising on Sydney Harbour.
The couple are in Sydney to attend the funeral of Kerry Packer, Australia's richest man, who died on Boxing Day at age 68.
Cruise is a personal friend of James Packer, heir to a family fortune derived from broadcasting, cattle and casinos. Like Cruise, Packer is a member of the Church of Scientology.
A state funeral is being held at the Opera House, attended by a galaxy of celebrities including Russell Crowe.
Cruise knows Sydney well. He lived in a mansion overlooking the harbour during his 10-year marriage to Oscar-winning Australian native Nicole Kidman.
A United States lifestyle magazine claimed this week that the couple, dubbed TomKat by the tabloids, was about to split and were staying together only until Holmes, who is seven months pregnant, gives birth. The actors kissed and hugged during a cruise on the harbour. -Sapa-dpa
