Connor Cruise looks almost unrecognisable as he posts a rare picture from a fishing trip

Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman’s adopted son, Connor, looks almost unrecognisable in a new photo. 

The 26-year-old happily posed for a picture this week to show off his catch while on a fishing trip with friends in Costa Rica.

Connor, who shared the image on Instagram, now has a long, scruffy beard and looks very different to how fans may remember him as a child.

‘Yellowfin we’re chewing today,’ Connor wrote in the caption.

In the photo, he conceals his gaze behind sunglasses and wears a pair of beige shorts and a white long-sleeve rash vest.

Tom and Nicole, who were married from 1990 to 2001, adopted Connor in 1995. They had adopted a daughter, Bella, now 28, three years earlier.

In December last year, Woman’s Day reported that Hollywood star Tom, 58, was trying to persuade Bella to live with him at his London penthouse.

The $455,000-a-month property has four bedrooms, an indoor swimming pool and stunning views of the city.

Tom has been living in London on and off for two years while filming a string of major movies, including Mission: Impossible 7.

Bella lives with her husband, IT consultant Max Parker, in a humble three-bedroom home in Croydon, south London.

Neighbours say she prefers a quiet life away from the celebrity spotlight.

Despite being one of Hollywood’s richest stars with a fortune of $570million, Tom doesn’t appear to be financially supporting his daughter.

Bella is rumoured to have grown apart from Nicole after her parents’ divorce in 2001.

However, mother and daughter may be on the road to reconciliation after fans noticed Bella had recently started liking the Big Little Lies star’s Instagram posts.

Their rift may have been caused by the fact Nicole is not involved with the Church of Scientology, while Bella is a member of the controversial religion.

The Moulin Rouge! star has remained largely silent about her strained relationship with her adopted children.

‘I’m very private about all that. I have to protect all those relationships. I know 150 per cent that I would give up my life for my children because it’s what my purpose is,’ she previously told Who magazine.

Following her divorce from Tom, Nicole welcomed another two daughters, Sunday, 12, and Faith, 10, with her second husband, country singer Keith Urban.
