AceShowbiz - Katie Holmes, 45, took to Instagram to refute claims regarding her daughter Suri Cruise's finances. It had been reported that 18-year-old Suri had become a millionaire after accessing a trust fund from her father, Tom Cruise, as well as an additional fund from Holmes herself.
Holmes clearly disputed these allegations, writing over a screenshot of the article, "Completely false. Daily Mail you can stop making stuff up." She further emphasized her point in the caption, stating, "Enough."
Katie Holmes has always been candid about her protective nature towards Suri, particularly concerning the media's portrayal of her family. In an April 2023 interview with Glamour, she expressed her desire to shield Suri from the negative impacts of public attention, especially given how visible Suri was as a child.
Holmes shared, "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." She added, "I'm very grateful to be a parent, to be her parent. She's an incredible person."
Earlier in the year, Holmes and Suri were seen celebrating Suri's high school graduation in New York City, marking another milestone in the teenager's life. Suri, wearing a red cap and gown over a white dress, appeared under the name "Suri Noelle" in her school's graduation program, opting to move away from the public persona associated with "Suri Cruise."
The mother-daughter bond extends into their professional lives as well. Holmes made her directorial debut with the film "Rare Objects," which she dedicated to Suri. Suri also lends her voice to the movie's soundtrack, echoing a similar contribution she made to Holmes' previous film "Alone Together."
Reflecting on her decision to include Suri in her projects, Holmes told Glamour, "I always ask her. And it's this safe, beautiful, creative space. So it comes out of love for me to include someone who I love dearly." She continued, "It was very meaningful to me to have her there, because she's my heart."
Holmes' efforts to protect Suri from unfounded stories and keep her grounded amidst media attention illustrate a deep commitment to her daughter's well-being. By directly addressing rumors and involving Suri in her creative endeavors out of genuine affection, Holmes shows the profound and supportive relationship they share.
