At 18, Suri Cruise embodies the ideal fusion of her parents Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes

Kids grow up fast! Suri Cruise is becoming more and more like her famous parents. Suri’s parents, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, began dating in 2005 and married the following year. Suri was born shortly before their wedding.

Tom and Katie’s marriage lasted about six years, during which time they were often seen out and about with Suri, despite going to great lengths to protect her from persistent paparazzi who were keen to snap photos of the high-profile family.

The couple has always protected Suri and kept her away from the media spotlight. Even today, Suri avoids social media.

Despite her efforts to maintain her privacy, Suri is often photographed by paparazzi when she is in New York. Although she is now 18, recent pictures show that even at 16 she looked remarkably like her famous parents, combining features of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

Although Suri resembles Tom a lot, their relationship is not particularly strong. They were last seen together in public in 2012. Katie Holmes is reportedly frustrated with Tom’s lack of involvement in her daughter’s life.

There were rumors that Tom’s limited interaction with Suri was due to his Scientology beliefs, but these claims have been refuted. Scientology does not prohibit parental relationships, although Tom may meet Suri privately and away from the public eye.

Regardless of the state of her relationship, it’s clear that Suri Cruise has inherited strong traits from both of her parents. Share this article to show your friends and family what Suri looks like today!

Actress Quinta Brunson Is Upset With ‘No Black Characters’ On Friends

The conversation around diversity has been intensifying lately, making everyone think about its importance in all areas of life. One recent topic of discussion? The iconic 90s sitcom Friends.

Quinta Brunson, known for her role in Abbott Elementary, recently pointed out Friends for its lack of diversity. While hosting Saturday Night Live, Brunson used her monologue to highlight the absence of Black characters in the beloved show.

Brunson contrasted the diversity on Abbott Elementary, which features the lives of teachers in a predominantly Black, state-funded elementary school in Philadelphia, with the noticeable lack of diversity on Friends. The difference was strikingly evident.

With her well-known wit, she joked: “I wanted to be on SNL back in the day, but the audition process seemed long – so instead, I just created my own TV show, made sure it became really popular, won a bunch of Emmys, and then got asked to host. So much easier, so much easier.”

While the audience chuckled, the underlying point was clear. Brunson continued, “It’s a network sitcom like, say, Friends. Except, instead of being about a group of friends, it’s about a group of teachers. Instead of New York, it’s in Philadelphia, and instead of not having Black people, it does.”

Her playful commentary sparked serious reflection, even from Friends co-creator Marta Kauffman. Kauffman has publicly expressed embarrassment over the show’s lack of diversity and pledged $4 million to support African and African-American studies at a university.

“I’ve learned a lot in the last 20 years,” Kauffman admitted. “Admitting and accepting guilt is not easy. It’s painful looking at yourself in the mirror. I’m embarrassed that I didn’t know better 25 years ago.”

She added, “It took me a long time to begin to understand how I internalized systemic racism. I’ve been working really hard to become an ally, an anti-racist. And this seemed to me to be a way that I could participate in the conversation from a white woman’s perspective.”

The discussion around diversity is far from over, but it’s clear that the conversation has advanced—even for a cherished sitcom like Friends.
