• How Tom Cruise And Katie Holmes' Daughter Suri Is Following In Their Footsteps... Sort Of

The Hollywood icon is by far the religion's most famous practitioner, and some claim he led by example and exercised the church's controversial "disconnection" policy with his daughter. "That shoot was so exciting for me — it was my first job," she recalls. One month after Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise's five-year marriage ended in 2012, Tom took Suri Cruise to Disney's Typhoon Lagoon water park in Florida. He was photographed being an attentive dad during the outing — there were smiles aplenty as he and Suri splashed around in a pool, and he made their time together even more fun by tossing her up in the air.

The actress wrote, directed and stars in the COVID-era romantic comedy — now playing in theaters and arriving on VOD on July 29 — which features the singing debut of her 16-year-old daughter, Suri Cruise. The news that Tom Cruise is reportedly keen on making amends with his daughter has been welcomed across the board, but Katie Holmes reportedly deserves a lot of credit. Back in 2017, the Batman Begins actress supposedly reached out to her ex "in the hopes of opening a dialogue about resuming contact with Suri," a source told InTouch. "She truly wants Tom to be a part of Suri's life. Tom is Suri's father, and she wants them to have a relationship." Suri sings the wistful classic "Blue Moon" in "Alone Together," a 2022 film written and directed by her mom.

"She was very sweet and kind, telling everyone to enjoy their day and would smile whenever someone walked past," one parade goer told Us Weekly. A source sang the same tune to InTouch, claiming Suri is now old enough to understand what divorce is and has accepted the fact that she's in a single-parent family. "Tom's been out of their lives for so long, she and Katie have moved on to a life without daddy," the insider said. One of the milestones that Cruise reportedly missed was Suri's 12th birthday.

Now, Holmes is telling her own stories, and she loves having her daughter work with her. Later this year, Suri’s voice will appear in another one of Holmes’ movies. However, Suri is rumored not to hold the same bond with her father amid reports she’s been estranged from the “Top Gun” actor, 61, since his 2012 divorce from Holmes.

Because Tom Cruise and Shields were able to make nice after their depression meds disagreement, Suri reportedly scored an invite to Grier's first birthday party the following year. According to People, the two tots became such close confidants that they started hanging out regularly and wearing matching clothes. "Suri and Grier love spending time together. They even nap in the same crib," an insider dished. She appeared on the cover of Vanity Fair alongside her famous folks when she was just a baby, but Suri has been brought up to be wary of the media. According to her mother, they don't necessarily go out of their way to avoid the press in their day-to-day lives, but they do make a conscious effort to ignore the tabloid stories.

Suri was last spotted with Holmes, 45, last month as the mother-daughter duo walked through Soho with big smiles on their faces. It’s unclear where the teenager was off to, but she held on to a pink water bottle as wired headphones hung out of her pocket. "I remember being pretty sore after that sequence," Sturgess says now.

Alone Together pairs Holmes with Jim Sturgess as a pair of New Yorkers who separately make the decision to flee the Big Apple at the height of the first wave of the coronavirus pandemic in early 2020. They both end up booking the same upstate Airbnb and, after some initial uncertainty and confusion, end up taking shelter together.

Her long brown hair and gorgeous smile aren’t the only things Katie Holmes and ex Tom Cruise passed down to their lookalike daughter Suri Cruise. The 16-year-old also got a big dose of talent from her famous parents. Recently, Suri officially made her big-screen debut in an appearance in Alone Together, a romantic comedy that Holmes wrote, directed, and starred in. Suri sings “Blue Moon” in the film, which was released 25 years after Holmes made her own feature film debut in Ang Lee’s The Ice Storm. It’s a cool full-circle moment and Holmes couldn’t be prouder of her daughter. Katie Holmes didn't have to look very far to find the right singer to croon the cover of "Blue Moon" that plays over the opening credits of her new movie, Alone Together.

And Holmes teases that her daughter's singing career won't be a one-and-done affair. "She actually did sing in Rare Objects, which is the film we did last fall," the director says of her recently completed third feature, a period drama based on the 2016 bestseller by Kathleen Tessaro. "Other than that, she's a 16-year-old kid doing high school," Holmes says, laughing. While Holmes has remained tight-lipped about Tom's relationship with Suri — or lack thereof — she did make the unusual move of having her rep deny a 2014 report claiming that Suri had visited her dad on Christmas Day.

"I'd put a pair of pants on her and the next minute I'd turn around and the pants are off and a dress is on," Tom Cruise told Grazia (via X17) in 2008. In a 2011 interview with Elle (via Huffpost), Kate Holmes revealed, "Today I'm wearing brown suede pants, and [Suri] said, 'I don't like your pants.'" She was lucky that Suri let her be seen out in public in them. "She won't let me leave unless I'm wearing what she wants me to wear," Holmes said on "Live with Regis and Kelly" in 2010 (via OK!). It's risky business being a celebrity baby, especially when your parents are Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. "Alone Together" isn't the first film in which Suri has showcased her voice. Holmes said that her daughter also sang in the film "Rare Objects," a period drama based on the novel by author Kathleen Tessaro, which Holmes also directed.

Like Holmes, Sturgess is celebrating his own cinematic anniversary this year. Fifteen years ago, the British actor made his big Hollywood debut alongside Evan Rachel Wood as the star of Julie Taymor's 2007 musical Across the Universe, inspired by the Beatles's immortal back catalogue. Katie Holmes' relationship with Suri Cruise is the stuff that dramedies about an unbreakable mother-daughter bond are made of. "My biggest goal has always been to nurture her into her individuality. To make sure she is 100 percent herself and strong, confident, and able." Suri might be angling for a Girl Squad spot these days, but there was a time when the apparent pop music fan was all about that girl power.

"If she doesn't get her chores done, I notice she's not really herself," she told Marie Claire in 2010. "She has to make her bed, she has to take her dishes to the sink, she has to put her clothes in the laundry." There was speculation that Suri's schooling factored into TomKat's split.

Pictures in the United States on June 8, 2018, 11 years to the day of the release of Ocean's Thirteen. There was once a rumor that Taylor Swift was going to star alongside Tom Cruise in "Rock of Ages," but it was Katie Holmes that she ended up working with. After starring alongside Swift in the 2014 movie "The Giver," Holmes had nothing but praise for the pop powerhouse. "I just think she is so smart. She's so young, really brilliant and works very, very hard." In other words, she's exactly the type of role model a mom would want her tween to have. When Suri Cruise was just two years old, Tom Cruise told Extra that she was fond of singing. But it was Katie Holmes who would eventually convince Suri to showcase her vocal talent in one of her projects.
