The actor does not want her ex-wife to attend the ceremony because her
Scientology considers her a person contrary to her beliefs
Isabella
and Connor, the children that Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman adopted during
their marriage, are devoted to Scientology, the same religion that their
father follows and of which he is a prominent member. In fact, according to
US media reports, the Hollywood community is still astonished by a video
starring father and sons in which they fervently support the beliefs of L.
Ron Hubbard, the founder of this doctrine. This week it has become known
that Bella Cruise, who lives in London, has become even more involved in
Scientology and, after a learning process, has become something of a
preacher and recruiter for the cause. A path that, as she herself has
declared, has helped her "find the missing piece in her life" when she was
"drowning in problems".
To round off this photograph of the Cruise family's surrender
to Scientology, the statements of actress Leah Remini, a former follower of
this doctrine, have been added, who has affirmed that Tom Cruise has entered
the category of "deity" for followers of this belief, and that above him is
only his current leader, David Miscavige, whom his faithful consider "the
savior of the world". The New York Post yesterday confirmed another of
Remini's claims: lower-ranking members of Scientology should see Cruise's
new movies as often as possible to contribute to his box-office
success.
In this scenario comes the news of the wedding of Connor
Cruise, 24, with an Italian who also professes her religion. And, according
to Radar Online, Connor has prohibited his mother from attending the
ceremony at the express indication of Tom Cruise because Nicole Kidman is
considered a suppressive person, a term they use to define the enemies of
their cause and those who with their actions they try to undermine and
impede the progress of their doctrine. Also because the actor does not want
to see his ex-wife in the church of the faith he professes. According to the
same publication, Connor kisses the ground that his father steps on and it
would never occur to him to disobey him, so a call from Cruise indicating
his wishes was enough for his son to have understood and followed the
message.
The shadow of Scientology's power has always hung
over the failed marriage of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman and the distant
relationship it has caused between mother and children. Both Bella, who is
currently 26 years old and is married to consultant Max Parker, and Connor
stayed with their father when the couple divorced and since then the
occasions on which they have been seen with their mother have been counted.
One of them was the day that Nicole Kidman married country music singer
Keith Urban in 2006. A situation that was not repeated when Isabella Cruise
married in London and none of her parents attended her wedding.
Despite this, Nicole Kidman – who has two other daughters with her
second husband, Sunday Rose, 11, and Faith Margaret, nine, who was born via
surrogacy – has always declared her unconditional love for her children.
greater. In 2018 she stated in the Australian magazine Who that she is very
secretive about them. "I have to protect that relationship. But what I do
know 150% is that I would give up my life for my children."
She also referred for the first time to her children and her
relationship with Scientology: “They are adults. They are capable of making
their own decisions. They have made the decision to be Scientologists and,
as a mother, my job is to love them (....) That is our job as parents, to
always offer unconditional love.”
