Tom Cruise's Awkward Answer About Father's Day Sparks Questions About His Relationship With Daughter Suri
Tom Cruise's personal life has been shrouded in mystery, from his dating life to his bond with his kids. Everyone has questions about his relationship with his and Katie Holmes' daughter Suri Cruise, and now, more than ever, people want answers. In case you missed it, earlier this week, an E! News journalist asked Tom: 'Father's Day is just around the corner. What would an ideal Father's Day look like for you?' And his response has people talking. More from SheKnows Tom Cruise's Second Act Keeps Getting Derailed by Scientology In a truly awkward turn of events, Tom responded by saying, 'You know…' before trailing off and shaking his head while looking into the distance. He added, 'Just having fun, man. Making movies, big adventure, having a good time.' Welp, how vague. You can see the proof for yourself in the video they posted HERE! Now, YouTube users instantly commented on this awkward moment, calling out Tom for his reported estrangement. One user said, 'A simple question about Father's Day and he can't answer it. He has gotten to a point where all he can talk about is movies and his love of movies. What about being a parent, Tom? There was a time when that was important to you. Sad for this man.' 'Wow kudos for the interviewer for finding a way to approach his father controversies, usually his questions are pre screened,' another added. '…I wish more interviewers could confront this sleazy guy about the unethical things surrounding him.' While Holmes and Tom have never publicly commented on whether he is, in fact, estranged from Suri, it's widely reported on, and insiders have even spilled the beans about it. Former leading Scientologist Karen De La Carriere previously told DailyMail that while many think that there are a lot of rules that prohibit Cruise from seeing Suri, it's just one major rule that she believes to be the case. 'Katie was deemed a Suppressive Person and Suri, by extension, a Potential Trouble Source,' she said. Chances are, you've heard about Scientology referring to some outsiders as a 'Suppressive Person,' which basically means someone who does suppressive acts against the Church and is dubbed an enemy for it. A Potential Trouble Source is basically a step below a Suppressive Person, it's basically someone linked to a Suppressive Person who may indicate they'll be an enemt ot the Church as well. This was backed up when DailyMail also asked Cruise's former security detail, Brendan Tighe, about it. 'So long as Suri sides with her mom, there will be no contact with her dad,' he said. 'But what about his two kids with Nicole Kidman (another ex of his who left the Church and became a Suppressive Person)?' Well, the reason he talks to his adopted children, that he shares with ex-wife Kidman, is that they're both Scientologists (with his daughter Bella as a high-ranking one at that). For those who don't know, Tom has three children in total. He and Kidman, with whom he was married to from 1990 to 2001, adopted two children: Isabella Jane 'Bella' Cruise and Connor Antony Cruise. Then, he and his ex-wife Holmes welcomed Suri on April 18, 2006, and they were married from 2006 to of SheKnows Every Single Time Shemar Moore Proved He's the Proudest First-Time Girl Dad The Best Places to Buy Furniture for Teens Online The Most Striking Rare Boy Names in the U.S. Right Now — & the Reason You Haven't Heard Them (Yet)

Tarek El Moussa Gets Public Show of Support From Wife Heather and Ex Christina Haack After Las Vegas Battery Incident
HGTV star Tarek El Moussa made a very poignant return to social media in the hours after he was involved in a physical fight in Las Vegas—sharing an emotional tribute to his teenage daughter, Taylor, in a joint post with his wife, Heather, and his former spouse, Christina Haack. The heartwarming post, featured a sweet image of the three 'Flip Off' stars posing alongside Taylor, 14—whom Tarek, 43, shares with Haack—as well as the former couple's second child, Brayden, 9. In the caption, the El Moussas and Haack urged the the teenager to learn from their past 'mistakes,' noting that they hope their own struggles help to lead her to a 'brighter future.' 'Taylor we are so proud of you and so excited for you to head into the next stage of your life. Our beautiful, smart, incredible, bright light we all love and adore you,' it read. 'We hope all the mistakes you've watched us make throughout your life help to guide you to a brighter future…. love you baby. High school here we come!' The post was shared just hours after it was reported that Tarek, who divorced Haack in 2018 and went on to wed Heather in 2021, had been involved in a physical altercation inside a Las Vegas resort. According to E! News, Tarek received a citation for battery after he was involved in the June 5 incident, which unnamed sources told the outlet had come about because the HGTV star was 'protecting his elderly father.' 'On June 5, 2025, LVMPD officers responded to a battery incident in the 3300 block of South Las Vegas Boulevard,' the local police department said in a statement. 'Two males were involved in a physical altercation resulting in one being cited.' It's understood that Heather, 37, was with her husband at the time of the incident, but that she played no role in the altercation, per TMZ. Tarek has yet to issue a statement about the incident; however, has contacted his spokesperson for comment. The joint post that the home-flipping pro shared is the latest indication of the strengthening bond between Tarek and his former spouse, Haack—whose relationship faced a very rocky patch after their acrimonious divorce and subsequent custody battle. However, after the duo signed on to appear together in their latest HGTV project, 'The Flip Off,' they went through a very public on-screen reconciliation, with Tarek offering his ex a great deal of support amid her breakup from Josh Hall. Haack and Hall's split came shortly after filming on the show had begun and was documented in great detail throughout the series, which was originally meant to feature the couple going head to head in a renovation battle against Haack and Tarek. However, after Haack and Hall announced that they had separated in July 2024, the latter was removed from the show. In the first episode, Haack was seen asking Tarek to come over to her Newport Beach, CA, house so she could speak 'in private,' before telling him that she and Hall had 'officially split up.' 'Things with Josh have been bad for a long time. Not just kind of bad. Like, bad,' she told him. 'And the kids literally asked me to leave. They told me he's not nice to me.' Weeks after the show began airing, Heather spoke exclusively to about the 'struggles' that she and Tarek had seen Haack and Hall going through, admitting that 'we kind of knew something was coming.' 'You definitely see some tension between them on camera and I would say like, after he left the show, [Christina] was much lighter. It seemed like she was happier and it made the show a lot more fun,' Heather explained. 'Whereas when he was involved, there was a lot more smack talking; and I know that she wasn't enjoying filming with him.' She went on to voice her support for Haack's new beau, Christopher Larocca, revealing that she and Tarek had already been on several double dates with the couple. 'We've gone to dinner with them a couple of times, and he's come to some kid things, and I'd say, so far I like him. I have nothing negative to say about him, and she seems happy,' Heather shared.
