Star magazine is reporting that the strain of being married to (and controlled by) her husband Tom Cruise is finally taking a huge toll on Katie Holmes’ physical and mental state.

Eyewitnesses at L.A.’s ‘Joan’s on Third’ say she nearly fainted as she was leaving the restaurant recently. Looking pale, thin and tired, Katie exited the restaurant and headed for her vehicle.

“She gave us a weak smile and wave before leaving out the back door.”

But she didn’t quite make it there before feeling light-headed and faint. At one point she leaned against a doorway to steady herself. She seemed disoriented and weak. Her bodyguard had to guide her the rest of the way to the waiting car. Apparently this is becoming a frequent occurrence with Katie, who’s been suffering from terrible headaches that make her see spots and feel faint.

According to friends, she’s not sleeping or eating enough, nor is she taking care of herself. Top that with having a maniacal, energetic, controlling, over-achieving husband, and Katie’s cracking.

Poor Katie, it seems she has lost her identity. She’s a shell of what she used to be. It’s so sad, isn’t it? Tom probably had her brains sucked out once he got his meathooks into her. His little zombie.

I don’t care how ‘posh’ she is these days. She was rockin’ the hottness before Tom.
