Some of us are old enough to remember nearly 20 years ago when Tom Cruise made headlines for jumping on Oprah Winfrey’s talk show couch because he couldn’t contain his excitement over his relationship with Katie Holmes. Now, it’s rare to see the two together, let alone with the daughter they share, Suri Noelle Cruise Holmes. He’s made his intentions about his role in her life clear: he doesn’t want to be actively involved in it. However, despite his feelings for the 18-year-old, it seems that Cruise doesn’t mind hanging out with the children he shares with his ex-wife Nicole Kidman.
Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman’s adopted son, Connor Cruise, shared rare photos and Instagram stories of his 30th birthday. Many of the images shared show off the 30-year-old love for his hobbies, including fishing and being outdoors. However, it’s notable that none of the images or comments come from his mother, father, or even his step-siblings from after their 2001 divorce.
Rarely do any of the Eye’s Wide Shut co-star’s children post about their famous families, preferring to keep out of the limelight. There have been a few times where images with him and his dad have been shared, like when they attended a Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Florida Panthers game. The two took a photo with former team player Derrick Brooks as proof.
What I find to be the most interesting, especially among the children of celebrities who have been married several times, is whether or not they speak to their step-siblings. Connor Cruise and Suri Cruise have a nearly 12-year age gap, but I still wonder if they still talk to one another during holidays and birthdays behind closed doors. It seems that neither of Tom Cruise’s children want to be in the public eye, and honestly, I can’t say I blame them.
