It feels like just yesterday that Suri Cruise packed her bags and moved to Pittsburgh. The daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes left her home in New York City to begin her college journey and chase her dreams in the fashion industry. Now, with the year winding down, she’s returned to the Big Apple for a special Thanksgiving celebration.
On November 27, Suri Cruise was seen strolling through the streets of Brooklyn, coffee in hand. The 18-year-old college student took advantage of the Thanksgiving holiday to step away from her studies at Carnegie Mellon University and spend quality time with her mom back in New York.
With the temperatures dropping in New York, Suri stayed cozy yet stylish in slightly loose navy trousers, an olive-green puffer jacket, and camel-colored suede boots. True to her effortlessly natural aesthetic, she kept her dark hair loose and opted for a makeup-free look.
It seemed like a brief outing—Suri was spotted carrying a small paper bag, likely holding a pastry, along with a disposable coffee cup. She maintained a composed demeanor upon noticing the paparazzi but continued on her way unfazed. Growing up as the child of two Hollywood icons, she’s no stranger to media attention, though she makes a conscious effort to keep her personal life private.
Meanwhile, Katie Holmes was seen the same day heading to the Ethel Barrymore Theatre on Broadway, where she stars in "Our Town" alongside Jim Parsons and Zoey Deutch. The Dawson’s Creek alum matched her daughter’s cozy vibe, wearing a classic black coat over a gray turtleneck, dark trousers, sneakers, a baseball cap, and oversized sunglasses.
Last month, during a short break from school, Suri returned to New York to support her mother during the opening week of the play.
Katie Holmes on Suri Leaving for College
‘I remember being her age and experiencing that exciting period of beginnings,’ Holmes reflected. ‘It’s so exciting to learn about yourself, and I loved that time in my life. Thinking of it that way makes me happy.’ Holmes has been raising Suri independently since her divorce from Tom Cruise more than 12 years ago.
Although Tom Cruise has reportedly been estranged from his daughter since the divorce, sources say he has consistently fulfilled his financial obligations. According to the Daily Mail, Cruise agreed to pay $33,000 a month in child support until Suri turned 18 and committed to covering her education and healthcare expenses beyond that. ‘Tom isn’t involved in Suri’s life, but he has always met his financial responsibilities toward Katie and Suri,’ a source confirmed.
