As OK! previously reported, Suri and her dad, Tom, have been largely estranged since the actor’s split from Katie in 2012, however, it was recently revealed he still supports his offspring financially.
According to a source, Tom is footing the bill for Suri’s college degree as the youngster recently began her freshman year at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pa.
"Tom is indeed paying for Suri's tuition, he has always paid for her schooling and would never stop as he is a stand-up guy," the insider spilled.
"He has never hesitated paying his daughter's child support and expenses. He does not go back on his word. He is fulfilling his obligation," the source added of the Top Gun: Maverick star, 62.
Another insider touched on the reason why Suri and Tom have a distant relationship.
"The simple fact why Tom hasn’t seen Suri in all these years is because he has chosen not to. That’s it," they stated.
"In any divorce where there are children involved, a father is given the right to see their child," the source noted. "Fathers who are incarcerated can see their children. Tom didn’t see Suri grow up because he chose not to. It was entirely his decision."
