The War of the Worlds star purchased a sonogram machine, which can cost as much as $200,000, to keep an eye on the fetus growing inside his fiancé KATIE HOLMES. Exhibiting some newfound restraint--no upholstered furniture was harmed--in a Barbara Walters interview airing this week on ABC, the actor, 43, said he and Holmes, 26, plan to marry next summer or early fall, after...

Since suffering a massive heart attack in 1990, he'd undergone two bypass surgeries and two dozen angioplasties. By last year, any physical effort brought on chest pains - even taking a shower left him exhausted.
