Tom Cruise has captivated the media this week by parading shirtless while filming scenes for his latest Mission Impossible movie in Majorca, Spain.
The actor then surprised many by appearing in a rare photo with his two adult children, Isabella “Bella,” 31, and son Connor, 29, at a football game.
The action star is also in the spotlight over new bombshell revelations about his youngest daughter, Suri Cruise, whom he shares with his former wife, Katie Holmes.
Sources close to Suri Cruise and Katie Holmes have been talking to the media about the great divide that exists between them and Tom Cruise since the bitter 2012 divorce.
According to an insider, who spoke to The Daily Mail, Tom Cruise should swallow one shameless confession he made in court about his family.
During the divorce process, Tom Cruise spoke about his relationship with his daughter and explained that he calls her every day.
The filmmaker, who was lamenting about his co-parenting arrangement with Katie Holmes, went on to say the calls were not enough to have a lasting bond as a father with Suri.
Via PEOPLE and The Daily Mail: “Unfortunately, in this situation, it was impossible,’ he told the court. He added that, far from abandoning his daughter, he called her every day — although he conceded it was not the same as seeing his young daughter in person and that speaking to a child on the phone can be difficult. He said: ‘You have to work at it. I’ve gotten very good at it. I tell wonderful stories.”
Tom Cruise must now regret this revelation because a close insider to Suri Cruise revealed where he now stands.
The person in the know claimed that Tom Cruise had not reached out to his daughter in years, and if he dared to, she would not respond, painting a heart-wrenching picture of their relationship.
The insider stated: “Suri will not have any contact with her father, despite being 18, and even if he called, she would not answer. He does not exist to Katie or Suri, and his daughter does not want to rely on him for anything.”
Once more, Tom Cruise’s actions have sparked a public outcry, with many finding it hard to digest his behavior.
Observers say that Mr. Cruise can find some solace in the fact that his career has not been impacted in a negative way by his personal issues.
Experts say that his discipline played a crucial role in this.
