The daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes has legally dropped her father’s last name.<\/p>\n

She is registered to vote in Pennsylvania as Suri Noelle, according to public documents obtained by CBC News.<\/p>\n

Noelle, 20, lives in Pittsburgh, where she is attending Carnegie Mellon University.<\/p>\n

The last name Noelle is an apparent tribute to her mother, the Dawson’s Creek star who was born Katie Noelle Holmes.<\/p>\n

Suri has been estranged from her father, Mission Impossible star Tom Cruise, since she was seven years old, according to TMZ<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Cruise and Holmes reached a divorce settlement in 2012. Celebrity news media<\/a>\u00a0at that time was overwhelmingly more sympathetic to Holmes, painting a picture of her as breaking free from a strange marriage that had been heavily influenced by the Church of Scientology. <\/p>\n

WATCH | Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes headed for divorce:\"\"Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are headed for divorce after five years of marriage. Cruise’s lawyer said Holmes filed for divorce on Thursday<\/p>\n

At the time, the pair said they were committed to co-parenting, but since then, Holmes has largely raised their daughter by herself in New York City.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear when the name change occurred. Noelle turned 18 in April 2024, and her name was listed as Suri Noelle when she graduated from high school in 2024, according to Page Six<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She joins a list of children who have distanced themselves from their father, following their celebrity parents’ high-profile divorce.<\/p>\n

Five of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s children have now legally or publicly dropped Pitt from their surname. <\/p>\n

In April, People magazine\u00a0<\/a>reported that the 20-year-old son of Britney Spears and Kevin Federline changed his Instagram handle from Sean Preston Federline to Sean P. Spears. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Listen to this article Estimated 2 minutes The audio version of this article is generated by AI-based technology.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":832008,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[49,48,361,75],"class_list":["post-832007","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/832007","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=832007"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/832007\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/832008"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=832007"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=832007"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=832007"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
