Tom Cruise has left London via his personal helicopter, coinciding with his daughter Suri’s start at Carnegie Mellon University. Suri, now 18, has chosen to use her mother’s middle name, Noelle, as she begins her college life. According to reports, Cruise has had limited involvement in Suri’s life in recent years.
Katie Holmes, Suri’s mother, expressed pride in her daughter’s accomplishments in a recent interview: “I will miss the close proximity, but I’m really proud of her, and I’m happy… I remember being this age, this time of beginnings. It’s exciting to learn about yourself.”
As part of their divorce agreement, Cruise committed to providing financial support for Suri, including annual payments to Holmes until Suri turned 18 and covering her college expenses. Suri is said to be closer to her mother than her father.
