There are a bunch of conflicting reports stating that Tom Cruise juuuuuust might be leaving Scientology for his daughter.
Do I trust them?
The jury’s out on that one.
After all… the guy basically IS Scientology…
According to a sensational report by Us publication The Star, Tom Cruise is prepared to leave his beloved, controversial religion, Scientology, for his 11-year-old daughter Suri.
The Hollywood A-lister, who has long been an advocate for the Church of Scientology, was MIA for the grand opening of a new super-centre in San Diego, leaving many to believe that the once devoted star is at war with church leaders.
An insider explosively told Star, ‘Tom is the fiercest Scientologist on the planet, but it’s beyond heartbreaking to be forced to cut ties with your child.’
Ok… but don’t other Scientologists basically give up their babies to be raised by Scientology baby farms?
(I don’t watch all the shows like the rest of the chicks do. I might have my facts twisted on this one.)
So I dunno…
Since his sudden split from actress Katie Holmes in 2012, Cruise has not seen his daughter due the secretive cult’s alleged doctrine that requires members to ‘disconnect’ from family and friends who defect from the religion, The Star claims.
‘Tom has reached the breaking point, and something has to give,’ the inside spilled to the publication. ‘If he wants her back, he’ll have to walk away from the church, which has been a huge part of his life.’
‘Leaving Scientology would be the toughest decision he’ll ever have to make!’ the source reveals.
Again, don’t know if I buy it… but I’m sure even just the THOUGHT of losing his golden girl makes Miscavige quake.
Scientology News sources are already adamantly denying the claim:

And others mention that this might be planted by PR firms since he has a new movie coming out:
Regarding the “SHOCKING” stories that periodically pop up about Tom Cruise wanting to leave Scientology, Mike Rinder explains how these are often planted stories to make people think Cruise is “waking up” to make him look better. Interesting, that’s something I never considered. https://t.co/xC08E7ZLiq

Another gossip rag counters the claims, however:
It looks like Katie Holmes doesn’t even hope that Tom Cruise will ever come back into their daughter Suri’s life! Reportedly, the father hasn’t seen the 11-year-old girl in years due to his dedication to the Church of Scientology.
While some new reports have been saying he is planning on leaving the controversial cult in order to finally be present in his little one’s life, his ex and mother of his child, Katie Holmes is doubtful that is ever going to happen!
Of course, she would love it if Tom started to have a proper relationship with Suri, but she doesn’t think Cruise has what it takes to give up his beloved religion.
However, it sounds like Suri has someone in her life who is willing to be a great father figure for her and that is Katie’s boyfriend, Jamie Foxx.
According to an insider, ‘Katie would be thrilled to see Tom leave Scientology, she would love to have him build a healthy relationship with Suri. It’d be a dream come true actually, but she is not expecting it. She has zero hope Tom will leave Scientology for Suri — he has made it clear many times that he is in it for life.’
A dream come true? Really? I would want that creep as far away from my kid as humanly possible.
Although some people such as Leah Remini, who is now against the cult, have managed to leave, the chances that Tom would willingly exit Scientology are very slim.
‘People change, and they leave, so it is always possible Tom will walk away, but it is very slim, and she knows it. It breaks Katie’s heart Suri does not have a relationship with Tom, there is a hole in her life because of it — he’s missed. Katie is such a daddy’s girl herself; she cannot imagine a life without a close relationship with her father. But unfortunately, that is the reality for Suri,’ our source went on.
But now that Katie is dating Jamie, things have started to improve as he is a real family man.
‘She [Katie] is grateful to have Jamie in her life now, he is becoming more and more of a father figure to Suri, and she is really grateful for that.’
Again… I’ll believe it when I see it.
What do you think? Any chance?
