Tom Cruise is busy in England, working on multiple projects.
He is also making fun-filled appearances at sporting events and concerts and made a splash at the Paris Olympics.
Despite all that the actor has going on, he found time to give himself a huge pat on the back via a major media leak about his estranged daughter, Suri Cruise.
Over the summer, the 18-year-old daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise hit a significant milestone — she moved out of her mother’s New York apartment to start college.
Suri is attending Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Holmes was present every step of the way for her daughter.
From high school plays to her first paid jobs, decisions about her potential careers, and graduation, Katie Holmes was right next to her daughter, holding her hand and being supportive.
Regrettably, the same cannot be said for Cruise, who has been notably absent from his daughter’s life. Tom Cruise has yet to make any contact to see or hear from his daughter in the past 12 years.
The famous actor and filmmaker has insisted under oath that the rules and laws of the Church of Scientology have prevented him from having a relationship with his youngest daughter.
Tom Cruise is an absent father in the sense of the word — he skips birthdays, holidays, and major events in Suri’s life, including her graduation.
However, the daredevil actor dares to do some humble bragging via The Daily Mail.
A source close to Tom Cruise was delighted to reveal that he is very proud of himself for paying Suri Cruise’s college tuition. Cruise, who is worth $600 million, is paying his child’s tuition, which is $65,000 per year.
The person in the know claimed that Tom Cruise is a strong man who would not fail his daughter and is, therefore, taking care of his financial responsibilities.
The insider stated: “Tom is indeed paying for Suri’s tuition, he has always paid for her schooling and would never stop as he is a stand-up guy. He has never hesitated paying his daughter’s child support and expenses. He does not go back on his word. He is fulfilling his obligation.'”
The Daily Mail revealed that Tom Cruise is no longer paying Holmes $38,000 in child support because their daughter is over 18. Despite this, Suri is not letting her father’s absence dampen her spirits or hinder her life experiences.
According to a family friend: “Suri is eagerly looking forward to the full college experience, including living in a dorm room and having a roommate. She is excited for this new chapter in her life.”
People close to the actor wants him to get some credit.
