Tom Cruise cuts ties with daughter

Many relatives confirmed that Tom Cruise did not call or see his children because he was busy with work.

On August 17, Us Weekly quoted a source in the 54-year-old actor's family as saying: "Tom Cruise hasn't called Suri in three years." Another person accused: "Tom has no relationship with Suri."

This is not the first time Tom Cruise has been criticized for not being in contact with his children. A source shared with In Touch Weekly in June: "They used to talk via Skype, text... but the frequency has gradually decreased. Tom Cruise used the excuse of being busy filming and promoting the movie so he did not see his children."

The reason Tom Cruise cut off his relationship with his daughter is said to be because of the religion of Scientology. According to people who left Scientology recently shared with Us Weekly, members of the sect's leadership are forced to stay away from anyone who is not a believer.

However, Tom Cruise's religious representative explained: "We never interfere in the lives of our members. Scientology respects each person's faith and relationships. Scientology does not force members to sever relationships with non-believers, their friends or family."

Tom Cruise's representative has not commented on the incident.

The meeting between Tom Cruise and Suri in August 2012 at Disney World, Florida - before the divorce proceedings were completed - is considered one of the last times father and daughter were together.

Katie Holmes wanted her daughter to stay away from Scientology so she broke up with Tom Cruise.

Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise dated from spring 2005 and got engaged that summer. They welcomed Suri in April 2006 and married in front of 150 guests in Italy at the end of 2006. In 2012, Katie Holmes filed for divorce. A source told Us Weekly at the time that Katie Holmes did not want her daughter Suri to grow up and attend a Scientology school. Since the divorce, Katie Holmes and her daughter have lived separately and away from the noisy life of showbiz.
