Tom Cruise<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n“These kiddos. I’m doing everything I can that they don’t turn into little turds. Both me and their mom.”<\/p>\n
\nThe 50-year-old actor has implemented a “Ted Lasso philosophy” with one of his most important rules for his children.<\/p>\n
\nHe said: “I try to explain to them the power of please and thank you when you really mean it.<\/p>\n
\n“Not only do you get to be in interesting places, but I think, more importantly, you get invited back. <\/p>\n
\n“That feels like a Ted Lasso philosophy that we’ve yet to implement on the show, but you certainly see it a lot.”<\/p>\n
\nTed Lasso is returning to TV next month and sees the titular soccer coach take over Richmond FC’s women’s team, and Jason has always been a big fan of female sport.<\/p>\n
\nHe said: “Getting to be around women’s sports, specifically the WNBA, my sisters and I and my kids went to a lot of those games.<\/p>\n
\n“Having season tickets right next to the opposing team’s bench, which is fascinating just getting to watch these kick-ass women coming off of three three-pointers in a row or after scoring a 0-12 run and just seeing the humanity and camaraderie amongst them.”<\/p>\n
\nAnd he is no stranger to the dynamic between groups of females.<\/p>\n
\nHe said: “I grew up in a house full of women, so I’ve seen that in a variety of stages of my life.<\/p>\n
\n“It’s something I’ve always been a big fan of and appreciated, the bawdiness and the cockiness.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"30 July 2026 Jason Sudeikis and Olivia Wilde are trying to raise their kids not to be “little…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":575591,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[93,61,60,14763,281,8245,5592,282],"class_list":["post-575590","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-jason-sudeikis","tag-justin-bieber","tag-olivia-wilde","tag-tom-cruise","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/575590","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=575590"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/575590\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/575591"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=575590"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=575590"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=575590"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
