Even $65000 Cheque Won’t Bring Suri Cruise Closer to Father Tom Cruise After Breaking All Ties With Him
Published By admin with Comments 0
Tom Cruise might be regarded as Hollywood’s Daredevil and action icon, but the star has also been known for his troubled family relationships. His much-talked-about marriage to Katie Holmes ended in bitterness in 2012, and their daughter Suri was caught in the middle of this public separation.
Suri hasn’t seen much of her father since their split up except that he still pays for her expenses. As she starts her new life, it appears that their estranged relationship is unlikely to change ever.
Suri Cruise is stepping into adulthood and starting her new life as a college student at Carnegie Mellon University. However, despite this contentious relationship, Tom Cruise is fulfilling every obligation on her financial front. According to Daily Mail, the actor will spend $65,000 per year to pay for Suri’s college tuition.
Cruise has always served child support and has provided for her education fund, hospital bills, and other extracurricular activities, although he was hardly involved in her life in the last 11 years. After divorce proceedings, Katie Holmes got full custody of Suri. However, Cruise committed to taking full responsibility for Suri’s education and anything related to education as child support.
As Suri has turned 18 now, there is a change in the financial position. Cruise will not have to pay $400,000 every year to Holmes for child support. But his commitment to her education is still intact. A friend of Cruise told Daily Mail,
It appears that Suri wanted some normalcy in her life, as she was spotted moving into the college dorms with her mother, while Cruise was notably missing. His monetary responsibilities have not been enough to reduce the differences between father and daughter.
Suri has chosen to abandon the ‘Cruise’ surname, which says a lot about her relationship with her father. According to Page Six, she has preferred to use her mother’s middle name, ‘Noelle’. The change of name was done before entering college, and it shows her desire to leave her father’s shadow and build her own identity.
The last time Suri and Tom Cruise were seen together was in public in April 2013. That is more than 10 years ago, which was most of Suri’s childhood. The reasons for their separation are complex, but it appears to be rooted in the circumstances that led to Cruise and Holmes’ divorce.
Katie Holmes’ decision to part ways with Cruise in 2012 was allegedly a result of Scientology, to which Cruise was very much devoted. As per The Mercury News, Anthony Ortega, a journalist who has been covering Scientology, has claimed that Holmes understood that Suri’s indoctrination in Scientology would start after her 6th birthday.
