EXCLUSIVETom Cruise ‘does not exist’ to daughter Suri: Katie Holmes’ child will celebrate her 18th birthday WITHOUT her Scientologist father – as insiders reveal devastating truth of how their fractured relationship finally fell apart for good
Published By admin with Comments 0
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ daughter Suri has spent much of the last 12 years living in the shadow of frenzied speculation over her infamously fractured relationship with her famous Scientologist father – and as she takes her first steps into adulthood, it seems she is finally ready to answer the question of her future with the Top Gun star once and for all.
Today, the teenager will mark her milestone 18th birthday without her dad Tom, 61, who has all but been exiled from his youngest child’s life for many years – a bitter rift that stems in large part from Katie and Suri’s decision to cut ties with his controversial Scientology faith.
The wedge that was initially driven between father and child at the time of his 2012 divorce has since become a rock-solid wall – one that Suri has no plans to ever break down, DailyMail.com can now reveal.
At the age of 18, Suri is now a legal adult, ‘officially’ capable of making her own decisions. But while sources close to the teen say she is still weighing up her options as far as her future career is concerned, they note that she is crystal clear on one thing: ‘Tom does not exist to her.’
Suri’s birthday today will officially sever all remaining ties with Tom on paper; as she turns 18, the Top Gun star will no longer be required to pay child support to Katie, a sum that reportedly amounted to a hefty $400,000 a year.
But even the potential of future financial assistance will not lure Suri into pursuing a relationship with her father, the insiders insist.
‘Suri will not have any contact with her father, despite being 18, and even if he called, she would not answer,’ one source told DailyMail.com. ‘He does not exist to Katie or Suri, and his daughter does not want to rely on him for anything.’
They continued: ‘She feels that she has one parent and that is her mother.’
