Katie shares Suri with her ex-husband Tom, who hasn’t been seen with his daughter in about a decade.

In fact, when Suri turned 18, she dropped Cruise as her last name and took her mother’s middle name, Noelle, as her official last name. 

In an interview with Town & Country, the Alone Together director reflected on this milestone in her and Suri’s life.

‘I’m proud of my daughter. Of course, I will miss the close proximity, but I’m really proud of her and I’m happy,’ she explained.

‘I remember being this age, this time of beginnings. It’s exciting to learn about yourself, and I loved that time, so it makes me happy to think about it like that.’

Katie was accepted to Columbia University but opted to pursue the role in Dawson’s Creek she had just been cast in rather than go to college.  

Carnegie Mellon has a world-class drama school something Suri is said to be interested in alongside vocal performance.

Town & Country noted how Suri ‘has contributed vocals to songs in two of Holmes’s films’ – the 2023 drama Rare Objects and 2022 romantic drama Alone Together.

Holmes, speaking with Glamour in April 2023, said that she sought to encourage Suri’s performing on her projects over the years.

‘I hope she always does something on my films,’ Holmes said. ‘I always ask her.’

Holmes said that ‘both of those experiences came out of the same sense of what I love about our industry, which is, you have these projects and you become a family with people.’

Holmes said she strived to create a ‘safe, beautiful, creative space’ for Suri to hone her craft as a performer.

‘So it comes out of love for me to include someone who I love dearly,’ Holmes said. ‘It was very meaningful to me to have her there, because she’s my heart.’
