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!
TV Star with Māori Face Tattoo Shuts Down Haters in Epic Response!
A TV presenter with a traditional Māori face tattoo has calmly replied to negative comments from a viewer, proudly standing up for her cultural heritage and identity.
Facial tattoos often spark debates online. Some people think tattoos should only be on the body, while others understand and appreciate their cultural importance.
Oriini Kaipara, 41, made history when she became a newsreader for New Zealand’s Newshub. She is the first primetime TV news presenter to wear a moko kauae, a special facial tattoo for Māori women.
The Māori are the indigenous people of mainland New Zealand. They see moko kauae as important symbols of their heritage and identity. These tattoos, traditionally on the lips and chin, show a woman’s family ties, leadership, and honor her lineage, status, and abilities.

Despite receiving praise, one viewer named David expressed his dislike for Kaipara’s moko kauae in an email to Newshub.
He wrote, “We continue to object strongly to you using a Māori newsreader with a moku [moko] which is offensive and aggressive looking. A bad look. She also bursts into the Māori language which we do not understand. Stop it now,” according to the Daily Mail.
But Kaipara didn’t let David’s negative words stop her. She bravely shared screenshots of his messages on her Instagram story and responded calmly.
“Today I had enough. I responded. I never do that. I broke my own code and hit the send button,” she wrote on her Instagram story alongside a screenshot of David’s message.
Kaipara didn’t just share screenshots of David’s email, she also responded to him. She explained that his complaint wasn’t valid because she hadn’t broken any rules for TV.
She also corrected David’s spelling mistake. He called her tattoo a “moku” instead of “moko”.
In her email back to him, Kaipara said, “I think you don’t like how I look on TV. But tattoos and people with them aren’t scary or bad. We don’t deserve to be treated badly because of them.”
She asked him to stop complaining and to try to understand better. She even joked that maybe he should go back to the 1800s if he couldn’t accept people with tattoos.
Despite David’s negative words, Kaipara says she mostly gets nice comments, and mean ones are rare.
In an interview with the New Zealand Herald, Kaipara talked about how it’s important to have more Māori people in important jobs. She said, “The fact that my existence makes some people upset shows why we need more Māori people in every job.”
Kaipara’s calm response reminds us how important it is to be proud of who you are, even when people are mean. She’s inspiring others to be proud of themselves and stand up to unfair treatment.
