Reportedly, Suri Cruise has not seen Tom Cruise in person since Katie Holmes blindsided him with divorce papers in 2012. The “Dawson’s Creek” alum had worked on keeping her daughter out of the spotlight. “Katie has safeguarded Suri and she’s a devoted mom,” a source told Page Six in April. “This is a girl who is a private citizen. She hasn’t lived her life in public,” the insider said about Suri.
Despite the estrangement, Tom was paying his ex-wife $400,000 a year in child support until their daughter turned 18-years-old, per a Daily Mail article published in March 2023. Afterwards, the “Top Gun” actor was still on the hook to pay for Suri’s college, and other incidentals. At the time of the Mail’s article, a source said that Holmes wanted her daughter to choose a school in New York. In April, Suri revealed her college choice and it seemed to be a sign she wanted to further distance herself from Tom. As revealed in a TikTok where a number of her classmates announced which college they would be attending, Suri chose to attend Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh.
Holmes may have preferred that her daughter stayed close by in New York, but she was likely happy to see Suri avoid the spotlight and head to Pittsburgh. “What has been really important for me with my daughter, because she was so visible at a young age, is I really like to protect her,” Holmes told Glamour in April 2023.
