The two young girls have a lot in common with each other.
When it comes to Hollywood celebrity children, Suri Cruise and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt are two names that are mentioned a lot. If Suri is the daughter of actor Tom Cruise and actress Katie Holmes, Shiloh is the daughter of famous couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. Both were born in 2006. If Suri has turned 18 since her birthday on April 18, Shiloh is about to reach this milestone on May 27.
These two daughters not only have the same year of birth, are both famous people, and have divorced parents, but also have a few other things in common.
Suri and Tom Cruise have a lot in common
Had a troubled relationship with his father.
In 2012, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes divorced and Katie got custody of their daughter. After the divorce, Tom Cruise never saw his daughter again. The famous actor never mentioned or attended any of his daughter’s birthday parties. From a father who loved his daughter with all his heart, he turned 180 degrees, became a father who abandoned and abandoned his daughter. Despite criticism from the press, Tom still ignored and never contacted Suri.
Currently, at the age of 18, Suri has stopped receiving child support from her father. Recently, the American media has been abuzz with the news that Suri Cruise has abandoned her Cruise surname to pursue an acting career. This move was made as a way for Suri to affirm her desire to be self-reliant.
Meanwhile, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt announced their divorce in 2016. Their separation proceedings have dragged on for years as they battled over child custody and ownership of the Château Miraval winery in France.
Currently, 3 of Angelina and Brad’s 6 children are adults and do not need parental custody, but the couple’s custody battle is not over. Over the years, Angelina has been temporarily assigned custody of the children while Brad Pitt only has visitation rights.
The children, Pax Thien, Maddox, and Zahara, all reacted strongly to their father, but only Shiloh – the couple’s first biological daughter – seemed to love and support her father. However, recently, Shiloh surprised the public by removing her father’s last name from her name.
Specifically, on Shiloh’s personal page, people discovered that the young girl introduced herself as “Shi Jolie”, not the double surname Jolie-Pitt as before.
Suri is more and more beautiful and confident
Together with mother focused on teaching independence
One thing Angelina Jolie and Katie Holmes have in common is that they both focus on teaching their children to be independent. From a sheltered princess, after her parents divorced and her father neglected her, Suri was taught to be independent from the smallest things by her mother.
Many years ago, people were surprised to see the image of “princess” Suri “descending to earth”, learning how to take the subway, carrying her own belongings, and paying the taxi driver herself. No longer haughty and elegant, Suri is now cheerful, friendly, and very confident. Many times, people saw Suri smiling brightly on the street or happily chatting with friends.
As for Angelina, she taught her daughters to value independence, to consider willpower more important than gorgeous dresses, and to focus on nurturing their character. “You can always wear a beautiful and gorgeous dress, but that appearance will not make an impression if your mind is not richly developed. There is nothing more attractive than a woman who is independent and strong in her own opinions,” Angelina once shared.
Shiloh was taught independence by her mother.
According to Angelina Jolie, Shiloh, Vivienne, Knox or Zahara can all wear luxurious and gorgeous dresses and radiant makeup, but they must also know who they are, what they think, what values they represent and know how to fight for others to have similar freedoms.
