Suri Cruise makes laid-back college appearance after Tom Cruise’s Father’s Day comment

Suri Cruise is back in New York City on college break and looked like she didn’t have a care in the world as she was pictured outside her mom’s apartment.

The college student, who is attending Pennsylvania’s Carnegie Mellon University, rocked loose blue jeans and a purple paisley-print tank top as she took the trash out.

With her hair up in a loose bun, Suri’s off-duty look came as her father Tom Cruise had an awkward encounter in which he was asked about his Father’s Day plans.

EXCLUSIVE.

Suri Cruise is pictured as Tom Cruise promotes the new Mission Impossible film in New York City. Suri and Tom have been estranged for years, and the Mission: Impossible actor brushed it off by simply replying that his hope was to “just have fun”.

At the film premiere on Monday for the final film in the long running franchise, Tom was asked by E! News what an ideal Father’s Day would look like, and the star gave an unexpectedly awkward response to the question.

“You know…” he began, before answering, “Just having fun, man.Making movies, big adventures, having a great time.”
