Suri Cruise and her estrangement from her dad, Tom Cruise
The star kid, Suri Cruise is the daughter of American actor, Tom Cruise and American actress, Katie Holmes. She is preparing for her 18th birthday that will fall on 18 April 2024. But, unfortunately, she will be celebrating her birthday sans her father, Tom Cruise as she has been doing so for the past many years now.
Suri is estranged from her father and had last met him in the year 2012. Recently, an industry insider revealed this sad news to Page Six. The father-daughter duo were last seen in the public arena in July 2012 when the two had together visited Disney World in Florida.
Katie, Suri’s mother has raised her single-handedly. She has kept Suri away from the limelight and has not allowed even her father’s shadow to fall on her. This was partly because Katie wanted to protect Suri from the Scientology practice of which Tom is a follower.
The details from the insider about Suri and her father
Katie is a single mom to her daughter, Suri whom she has raised out of the spotlight in New York City. The inside source told Page Six:
“Katie has safeguarded Suri and she’s a devoted mom,”
“This is a girl who is a private citizen. She hasn’t lived her life in public.”
Katie is all praise for her daughter. In 2023, she gave an interview to Glamour magazine in which the proud mother said:
“What has been really important for me with my daughter, because she was so visible at a young age, is I really like to protect her,”
“I’m very grateful to be a parent, to be her parent. She’s an incredible person. She’s my heart.”
Katie has been successful in her mission since Suri is now entering adulthood and would be able to take decisions on her own henceforth.
