While fans may insist Suri Cruise looks like her famous dad, it appears the 18-year-old is attempting to distance herself even further from Tom Cruise.
According to reports, the younger Cruise marked her transition into adulthood with a subtle, yet significant change to her easily recognizable name.
Hello Magazine reports that the teen debuted her new name in the Playbill for her high school’s production of Head Over Heels.Suri, who played the role of Philoclea, was listed not by her birth name but as Suri Noelle, adopting her mother Katie Holmes’ middle name.
Suri’s estranged relationship with Tom Cruise is no secret.
Katie has been responsible for the majority of Suri’s upbringing as the teen and her father have no relationship and have not seen each other since 2012, shortly after he and Katie split.
Over the years, Katie has taken every precaution to protect Suri from the public eye “because she was so visible at a young age.”
As a result, Katie and her daughter share an extremely close bond.
“I love her so much. My biggest goal has always been to nurture her into her individuality. To make sure she is 100 per cent herself and strong, confident, and able. And to know it,” Katie told InStyle in 2022.
