For years, people have been wondering if Tom Cruise will ever reach out to his youngest kid Suri Cruise. It’s been a back and forth, but former Scientologists are dishing the one major reason why they may never, ever connect.
Former leading Scientologist Karen De La Carriere told DailyMail that while many think that there are a lot of rules that prohibit Cruise from seeing Suri, it’s just one major rule that she believes to be the case.

“Katie was deemed a Suppressive Person and Suri, by extension, Potential Trouble Source,” she said. Chances are, you’ve heard about Scientology referring to some outsiders as a “Suppressive Person,” which basically means someone who does suppressive acts against the Church and are dubbed enemies for it. A Potential Trouble Source is basically a step below a Suppressive Person, it’s basically someone linked to a Suppressive Person who may indicate they’ll be an enemt ot the Church as well.
Carriere added “Tom cannot engage or connect with his own daughter. In Scientology, it is Scientology first; family priorities come low down in the order.”
This was backed up when DailyMail also asked Cruise’s former security detail, Brendan Tighe, about it.”Basically, when it comes to Scientology thinking, there is a disconnection policy. When it’s applied rigorously, there is no room for emotion,” he said. “So long as Suri sides with her mom, there will be no contact with her dad.”
And you may be wondering, “what about his two kids with Nicole Kidman (another ex of his who left the Church and became a Suppressive Person?” Well, the reason he talks to his adopted children that he shares with ex-wife Kidman is that they’re both Scientologists (with his daughter Bella as a high-ranking one at that).
For those who don’t know, Holmes and Cruise welcomed Suri, 17, on April 18, 2006, with her ex-husband Tom.
Suri turned 18 this past month, and many wonder if she’ll have something to say about her estranged dad and Scientology. “Suri would have been too young to sign any agreement, but she will now be free to talk if she wants to, and it’s going to be really interesting if she has something to say,” Tony Ortega, an expert and seasoned Scientology journalist said to Page Six.
