Suri Cruise, the daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, who gained fame as a baby, is now turning 18 and facing decisions about her future in the public eye. Born in 2006, Suri made her debut on the cover of Vanity Fair at five months old, but has since been shielded from the spotlight by her mother in Manhattan. Despite her father's absence from her life since 2012, a court agreement ensures financial support for Suri until she turns 18.
The divorce between Cruise and Holmes in 2012 was reportedly influenced by Holmes' desire to protect Suri from Scientology, the controversial religion followed by Cruise. As Suri reaches adulthood, she may have the freedom to speak about her father and Scientology, as she will be considered a legal adult in New York state.
