Tom Cruise Pays Suri's College Tuition

In a surprising turn of events, Tom Cruise has committed to funding his daughter Suri's college education, despite their long-standing estrangement. A close friend of Cruise confirmed to DailyMail.com that he has always been dedicated to supporting Suri's schooling and intends to continue doing so. This revelation comes as a shock, given that the father and daughter have not been photographed together in over a decade, and Suri has even changed her last name from Cruise to Noelle, suggesting a strained relationship. Suri, now preparing for her college experience, has chosen to attend Carnegie Mellon University, where she is eager to embrace campus life, including living in a dorm with a roommate. Reports indicate that the dorms are quite communal, with some rooms accommodating up to four students. The university offers various dining options, including Au Bon Pain and Ciao Bella, where students can enjoy a range of meals, from pastries to pasta. There are indications that Suri may pursue studies in acting and dance, a path encouraged by her mother, Katie Holmes. Holmes has previously involved Suri in her film projects, expressing pride in her daughter's artistic ambitions. In an interview, Holmes shared her hopes that Suri will continue to collaborate on her films, highlighting the close bond they share despite the physical distance that college may create.
