Tom Cruise 'has nothing to do with Suri's life' as she applies to college

Tom Cruise has nothing to do with his daughter Suri's life as she applies to college, it has been reported.

Katie Holmes and Tom's daughter 16-year-old daughter is thought to have already been applying to colleges but without the help of her dad due to their lack of relationship.

Suri, who turns 17 next month, has been thinking about her future which could include going to a fashion college in New York.

It's thought that Katie is heavily involved in the application process as she helps her daughter to take the next step in her life.

However, Tom has been estranged from his daughter since 2013, a year after he and Katie divorced.

The Daily Mail reported that Suri and Tom do not stay in contact with each other.

A source said: "Suri does not know her father anymore and she has not spent time with him in a decade. She does not go to see his movies and he has no part in her life."

Despite this, Tom will pay his daughter's tuition costs per his divorce agreement.

According to their divorce documents, Tom agreed to pay Katie $400,000 a month until Suri turned 18 years old.

Tom also agreed to pay all of Suri's expenses, including "medical, dental, insurance, education, college and other extracurricular costs".

It's possible that Suri could go on to study fashion in New York and is apparently "leaning towards" studying at Fordham University.

"Suri is applying to schools all over the place. [Katie] really does want her to stay in New York so they can be close to each other. Katie takes great pride in her but is also extremely overprotective," the insider shared.

When Katie and Tom called time on their relationship, it was reported that Katie had chosen to end the couple's marriage over fears about raising her daughter as a Scientologist which is Tom's religion.

Katie's decision to leave the religion and the marriage caused a rift between the former couple, which has seen Tom and Suri's relationship become distant.

The Mirror have reached out to Tom and Katie's reps for comment.
