Tom Cruise’s Daughter, Suri, Allegedly Has No Relationship With Him

Following Tom Cruise’s divorce from second wife Nicole Kidman, he and Katie Holmes became an item in 2005. The lovers, who were famously referred to as TomKat, have a 17-year-old daughter named Suri, who they welcomed in April 2006.

However, after being married for five years, the ex-lovers’ union came to an end with a widely publicized divorce in 2012. Since their split, Suri has been under the protection of her mother, who has kept her away from the prying eyes of the media. Recently, the 17-year-old has started sharing a little bit of her life with the public, offering a rare glimpse into her world.

After the high-profile split between the couple, Holmes took steps to protect Suri from the intense scrutiny of celebrity life and provide her with a more secure upbringing. This included distancing her from her father, who has frequently been battling controversy due to his involvement with the Church of Scientology.

A source close to the family revealed that the teen has no relationship with her dad. “Suri does not know her father anymore, and she has not spent time with him in a decade,” the insider said. “She does not go to see his movies, and he has no part in her life.”

Suri Cruise Hopes To Emulate Her Mother Katie Holmes

Suri is obviously following in her mother’s footsteps — Katie Holmes had previously worked as a model and also had her own fashion line called Holmes and Yang. Suri, who is now a teenager and nearing the completion of her schooling, is currently working towards advancing her education with the guidance and support of her mother.

“Suri is applying to schools all over the place, though Katie really does want her to stay in New York so they can be close to each other,” the source revealed. “Katie takes great pride in her but is also extremely overprotective.” A Daily Mail insider also reported that Suri has a keen interest in pursuing a career in the fashion industry and is actively exploring college options that would provide her with relevant opportunities.
