Multi-millionaire Tom Cruise’s daughter has been making ends meet by hawking her old clothes online at a significant markup, DailyMail.com can disclose.
Isabella ‘Bella’ Kidman Cruise has been selling items such as Dr. Martens boots and Stella McCartney sunglasses on Depop, a UK website similar to eBay but just for clothes.
So far, the 27-year-old hasn’t had much luck with only four out of her 13 items being sold, netting her $807 (£625). Still up for grabs are various tops, jackets and a jumpsuit.
Bella even put a tagline stating: ‘Everything must go. Free postage within the UK. No refunds. Not responsible after postage.’
It seems Bella is hoping to turn a profit with her used clothes, selling items for much more than what they are worth – as some tops are marked up by $85.

The 27-year-old has been selling items such as Dr. Martens boots and Stella McCartney sunglasses on Depop, a UK website similar to eBay but just for clothes. She listed these boots for around $190. The regular black and brown version of these boots cost around $170
It seems Bella is hoping to turn a profit with her used clothes, selling items for much more than they’re worth – as some tops are marked up by $85. This Reformation top is listed for around $215 while the same style of top is sold directly by the brand for around $130
Last month, she put a thick sheepskin jacket up for sale for $195 (£150) saying: ‘Really warm jacket from Out From Under. Never been worn. No tags. Great condition.’
She’s been using the same profile name as she’s used for her private Instagram for years – @beezwell. Depop is relatively unknown in the United States but is liked by reality stars in the UK who are trying to make a quick buck on their used designer labels.
Just like her father, Bella is a staunch Scientologist, but has been living away from the rest of the Cruise family
Bella, a former art student, also has her own website bellakidmancruise.com where she sells T-shirts that she’s designed.
Just like her father, Bella is a staunch Scientologist, but has been living away from the rest of the Cruise family for the past five years, who have all relocated to be close to the Church headquarters in Clearwater, Florida.
She’s taken up base in Croydon – 12 miles outside London – after marrying computer programmer Max Parker in a secret ceremony in 2015.
Bella has led a very un-glitzy lifestyle since marrying her 32-year-old husband.
They live in a simple three-bedroom semi-detached house, which they bought for $693,000 (£535,000) in June 2017, according to the title deeds.
The Top Gun actor doesn’t appear to be handing any significant chunks of money down to his adopted daughter, despite being Hollywood’s richest star with a fortune of $570 million.
But it seems there’s no hard feelings, as the Church of Scientology ‘Poster Girl’ appeared in a promo thanking her famous father.
In a marketing ad, Bella credited the Church of Scientology for providing the missing piece in her life after undertaking extensive training to become an auditor.

In an email initially shared with London based Scientologists and subsequently published on Scientology blog The Underground Bunker, Bella claimed she was ‘drowning in problems’ before qualifying for the role.
Reflecting on her training, she wrote: ‘It turned out it was exactly what I needed. I dragged out the testing and correction, just made it through the drilling and then finally began my auditing adventure, and wow, I wasn’t prepared. This IS what I had been searching for. The missing piece.’
Bella credited her father, full name Thomas Cruise Mapother IV, her aunt Cass Mapother and various members of the church for helping her through a series of issues while she underwent her training.
‘Thank you to my Dad for everything,’ she wrote. ‘To Cass. To Tash. I would have drowned in my own problems if you hadn’t been there to sup me or get me through the preliminaries.’
While Bella has settled in one of the most unfashionable parts of Britain, she’s not been totally ignored by her family.
Bella was adopted by Cruise and his former wife Nicole Kidman in 1992 and her younger brother Connor, 25, also a practicing Scientologist, three years later.

Connor, 25, made a secret visit to London over Christmas and had a shave and facial at the trendy barbers Ted’s Grooming Room, which has locations all over the capital (left and right). One of its barbers Ali K posted photos of Connor on December 29 enjoying a beard trim and mud facial

One of its barbers Ali K posted photos of Connor on December 29 enjoying a beard trim and mud facial, captioning it with: Brother Connor from LA is having a shave and a facial treatment.

It’s not known if father Tom also came to visit Bella for Christmas although his movements are always kept top secret.
The 57-year-old moved to Florida last year and now lives only a few hundred yards from the global HQ of the Church of Scientology in a two-story penthouse.
Last October, he was spotted in the UK giving helicopter lessons to Connor, leading to speculation that he was visiting the UK for the International Association of Scientologists gala dinner, which is held every year at the British headquarters in Saint Hill, West Sussex, and is the biggest event in the Church’s calendar.
