I think being a mother is the best thing in the world and that unending love that you have for your mother and for your child is Universe the love for a child is universal and Powerful it can even cause you to give up other things you thought were a priority in your life it’s what led Katie homes to divorce her husband Tom Cruz they were once deeply in love and they had a daughter named Siri Tom was a devoted member of the Church of Scientology Katie left and took Siri before she could be indoctrinated he hasn’t seen her since

keep watching for more on Tom Cruz’s relationship with his daughter sui Tom also had an absent father abuse often goes in Cycles Tom Cruz didn’t have a positive fatherly role model to look up to his father was physically abusive one day his world changed he said I got a call from my grandmother CU I hadn’t seen my father really in about almost 10 years and uh just saying that your father’s dying he’s in the hospital and he’s going to die and uh would you like to see him Tom said yes and flew out with a sisters his

father agreed to see them on one condition no discussing the past they had one final moment together as his father faded away from cancer none of this excuses anything Tom has done but it bears in mind remembering that hurt people hurt people it’s common to unconsciously repeat cycles of Abandonment from parents when becoming a parent how the rift between Tom and Siri began Siri was born April 18th 2006 her parents Katie Holmes and Tom Cruz got married a year later a lavish ceremony was held in an Italian Castle attendees

included a number of high-profile scientologists including Church leader David mavich Katie was involved in the cult-like church at first but her interest cooled over the next 6 years the same thing had also happened with Tom’s previous wife Nicole Kidman their children Isabella and Connor are still a major part of the Church of Scientology they ended up living with Tom but Nicole left and was labeled a suppressive person or SP that meant she was hostile to the Church of Scientology Katie began to worry about what the church’s

teachings would do to Siri indoctrination into Scientology begins at age 6 so she left Tom in 2012 around sir’s 6th birthday Tom admitted the divorce was unexpected however it was mostly uneventful with he and Katie reaching a settlement within 11 days she was also granted sole custody of sir and Tom was required to pay $400,000 a year in child support this would have been automatic grounds for disconnection from the church in almost any other case Tom’s Celebrity Status within the church gave him the option to remain with Siri

the question is whether he took that opportunity missing major moments celebrities lives are always under a microscope even the smallest actions can bring back old allegations Tom’s recent actions brought back allegations that he essentially abandon Sur once she and her mother left the church he was photographed at a soldout performance during Taylor Swift’s eras tour at Wembley Stadium in London he was having a wonderful time in VIP seats exchanging friendship bracelets and hanging out with NFL star Travis Kelsey what does

this have to do with parental abandonment a major moment in sir’s life was happening exactly at the same time she was graduating from fella LaGuardia high school of music and art and Performing Arts in New York City Tom was on the other side of the world it wasn’t the last time either the well-known stunt man was seen speeding on a motorcycle while grabbing the Olympic torch at the stad def France in Paris this year Siri Was preparing for her freshman year at Carnegie melon that day these events show a different type of

Parental abandonment it shows he doesn’t always make an effort to show up for her most important life Milestones sui changed her name sui distanced herself not only from her father but from both of her parents Celebrity Status at the graduation she accepted her award as Siri null the name change was a way to start fresh and create her own identity at College it’s also a tribute to her mother whose middle name is Noel there’s no confirmation if Siri has gone to court to make the name change official yet it could have been a one-time tribute Tony

Ortega speaks out the news has been reporting on the strained relationship between Tom and Siri for some time the son reported they stopped visiting each other around 2013 Tony Ortega is a journalist who covers Scientology and has been leading the charge the graduation issue led him to create a newsletter where he said that Tom’s abandonment of his daughter is quote even worse than most people realize he noted that Tom was not only a celebrity within the church but perhaps quote the most important Scientology

member of all time that meant he could bend the rules and communicate with non-believers Tony said in his newsletter he believes Tom simply chose not to he claims he chose the church over his own daughter as he put it Tom saw its founder as quote the greatest human being who ever lived and believed the technology he proposed was the only thing that could save the planet the defamation lawsuit it’s surprising Tom had nothing to say about the Tony Ortega article perhaps he never saw it because it was a smaller email newsletter he

wasn’t happy about the Articles he did see an article by in headlined abandoned by daddyy implied he cut ties with Siri when she was 7 years old after Katie divorced him he didn’t appreciate the implications that he’ chosen the church over his daughter in September 2013 Tom filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against the publication he did acknowledge that he hadn’t seen Siri as often since the divorce he claimed that it was difficult to arrange visits around his and Katie’s busy schedule he admitted he’d only seen her in person

for 10 days between June 18th and Thanksgiving of 201 12 despite speaking on the phone he asserted quote certainly what doesn’t change is the love that I have for my daughter and that I didn’t abandon her emotionally physically or otherwise and in terms of how I feel about her in terms of the responsibility that I feel towards my child has not waned in any way the questioning during the deposition was brutal the other side brought up times he didn’t seem to put his daughter first why did he find time to fly on a 24-hour trip during a Film

Production to attend a Scientology event but not find time to visit Siri in New York City the deposition became public and Tom settled with Bower publishing in December 2013 the publisher said they quote never intended to communicate that Tom Cruz had cut off all ties and abandoned his daughter Siri and regret if anyone drew that inference from anything they published how is Siri and Katie’s relationship sir’s relationship with her father is in question but what about her mother Katie has always hoped to protect her daughter not just from

the Church of Scientology she also wants to keep her from the barrage of media coverage that can come from being the child of celebrities as she put it quote 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 I’m very grateful to be a parent to be her parent she’s an incredible person the pair do put a united front up and are often seen in public together Katie was there at sir’s graduation they’ve even worked together Katie said in an interview with glamour

quote I hope she always does something on my films I always ask her Siri enjoys singing and has appeared in the soundtracks of at least two of Katie’s films Alone Together and rare objects the latter film marked Katie’s directorial debut and she dedicated it to her daughter she said Siri is now on her way to carnegy melon University Tom is paying for tuition it could be a gesture for him to try to become a part of her life again it could also just be a way for him to fulfill one of the most basic of parenting duties how lavish is

sir’s lifestyle sir may have missed out on a relationship with her father but Katie ensures she hasn’t missed out on much of anything else they’ve lived in New York City and LA and spent quarantine in a ski cabin Siri has become a talented skier they’ve also managed to spend time giving back through artolution one article from The Daily Mail alleged that she became a millionaire after a trust fund from her father kicked in there were also claims that her mother gave her a trust fund as well Katie took to Instagram to dispute

it she shared a screenshot of the article and asserted quote completely false Daily Mail you can stop making stuff up enough now it’s time to hear from you which broken celebrity family do you think is the most tragic let us know in the comments section below
