Dad Tom Cruise is shelling out the money to attend college, DailyMail.com has learned.
This is because in 2012, when he divorced Katie after six years of marriage, it was decided that he should cover all of her studies.
Divorce documents revealed that Tom pays for Suri’s expenses, including “medical, dental, insurance, education, college, and other extracurricular costs.”
“Tom is actually paying Suri’s tuition, he has always paid for her studies and would never stop because he is a serious guy,” a friend of Tom’s told DailyMail.com. Annual tuition at CMU is $65 thousand.
‘He has never hesitated to pay his daughter’s support and expenses. He doesn’t break his word. He is fulfilling his obligation.’

It’s strange to think that Tom is paying Suri’s expenses considering they haven’t been photographed together in over a decade.
Their last snapshot together in public was in April 2013.
Suri hinted that she doesn’t get along with her father since she changed her last name from Cruise to Noelle.
Noelle is Katie’s middle name.
Katie has hinted that Suri might be studying acting and dance at Carnegie Mellon. Holmes told Town & Country magazine that after college, her daughter wants to enter show business.
Both Katie and Suri’s father, Tom, have been in the industry since they were in their early 20s.
The magazine stated that Suri “is said to be interested in pursuing a career in fashion or acting.” That doesn’t sound out of place; Suri starred in a school production of The Addams Family.

And Katie has already put Suri to work on two of her films.
Suri contributed vocals to songs for two of Holmes’ films: the 2023 drama Rare Objects and the 2022 romantic drama Alone Together.
“I’m proud of my daughter,” Holmes told Town & Country about her daughter.
“Of course I will miss the proximity, but I am very proud of her and I am happy.”
Holmes, speaking with Glamor In April 2023, he said that he had tried to encourage Suri’s performance in his projects.
“I hope he always does something in my movies,” Holmes said. “I always ask her.”
Holmes said that “both experiences came from the same sense of what I love about our industry, which is that you have these projects and you become a family with people.”
