Tom Cruise has recently made headlines for a major decision regarding his relationship with his daughter, Suri Cruise. The 18-year-old, who graduated from LaGuardia High School on June 21, did so without her father in attendance. Instead, Cruise chose to attend Taylor Swift’s Eras concert in London, raising questions about his priorities and his bond with his daughter.

Suri Cruise, who is said to have changed her last name to Noelle, a nod to her mother Katie Holmes, celebrated this significant milestone with her mother present. Katie Holmes was there to support and celebrate her daughter, but the absence of Tom Cruise did not go unnoticed. According to In Touch Weekly, this snub has led to further speculation about Cruise’s relationship with Suri.

An insider revealed that Cruise’s decision to skip Suri’s graduation in favor of attending Taylor Swift’s concert is indicative of his strained relationship with his daughter. “He was trading friendship bracelets with superfans and dancing to ‘Shake It Off’ in a crowd filled with young ladies who were around his daughter’s age,” the source said. This behavior, contrasted with his absence from Suri’s important day, has led some to believe that Cruise is living a “double life.”

Both Bella and Connor are followers of Scientology, which has been a significant aspect of Cruise’s life. An expert on Tom Cruise’s faith, Tony Ortega, explained that Cruise’s primary loyalty is to Scientology and its leader, David Miscavige. Ortega noted, “He has proven over and over again that his No. 1 loyalty is to [his religion] and David Miscavige.”

The influence of Scientology on Cruise’s relationships has been a point of discussion for years. Ortega suggested that Suri’s exclusion from Cruise’s life might be beneficial for her. “It became more and more obvious Tom had completely cut Suri out of his life. And frankly, Suri may be better off for it,” he added.
