Nothing mends a celebrity rift like meds a baby.

Katie Holmes seemed to forget the firestorm of controversy created by her fiancee with regard to Brooke Shields this weekend when she ran into Tom Cruise’s former abuse-target at a private party in Los Angeles.

Katie’s face lit up as she gazed upon Brooke’s daughter, Grier, and the love-fest (however staged) continued throughout the conversation.

Whether this is a public charade or not, it looks like most of the ill will concerning Cruise’s bashing of and subsequent apology to Brooke about her use of medication for her post-partum depression seem to have melted away.

Hey, there’s no such thing as a chemical imbalance. Let’s just leave it at that and move on, shall we? Are playdates with Suri Cruise and Grier far behind? One can only hope.
