As OK! previously reported, though the celeb is rolling in cash, his personal life has taken some tough turns over the years.
Cruise was originally married to Mimi Rogers from 1987 to 1990, however, they split because of the Jerry Maguire alum allegedly wanted to become a monk. Cruise then tied the knot with Nicole Kidman in 1990, though they split in 2001.
Finally, Cruise married Katie Holmes in 2006, but she filed for divorce in 2012. The messy break-up left the actress with custody of their daughter Suri Cruise, who is now estranged from her father.
The youngster recently dissed her father by dropping his surname while performing in Head Over Heels on Broadway. Instead, the 18-year-old was listed as Suri Noelle — which appears to be a nod to her mother’s middle name.
As for why Tom never built a relationship with his daughter, one source claimed, "The simple fact why Tom hasn’t seen Suri in all these years is because he has chosen not to. That’s it."

"In any divorce where there are children involved, a father is given the right to see their child," they explained. "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."
