Cruise 'will eat baby's placenta'
Actor Tom Cruise has said he plans to eat the placenta of his new baby.
"I thought that would be good," he told GQ magazine. "Very nutritious. I'm gonna eat the cord and the placenta right there."
It is the latest in a series of unusual revelations by the 43-year-old about the child he is expecting with his fiancee, actress Katie Holmes.
The couple, who have been engaged since June 2005, plan to marry in late summer or early autumn, according to Cruise.
The Mission Impossible star has also claimed he knew Holmes, 27, was pregnant even before she told him.
Last week Cruise said on US television that Catholic-born Holmes has already joined him as a follower of the Church of Scientology.
'Silent birth'
In the GQ interview, Cruise defended the religion's doctrine that childbirth should be completed in silence.
"It's really about respecting the woman," he said. "It's not about her not screaming."
Cruise said earlier this month that their baby was due "any day now".
The baby will be the first for Holmes, while Cruise has two adopted children from his marriage to Nicole Kidman.
