Tom Cruise attends Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour after skipping Suri’s graduation

Tom Cruise was all smiles at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour show in London Saturday night after skipping daughter Suri’s high school graduation in NYC just hours prior.
The “Top Gun” star looked gleeful at Wembley Stadium as he traded friendship bracelets with fans ahead of the singer’s second of three sold-out performances in England’s capital city.
The 61-year-old actor — who rocked dark wash jeans, a white T-shirt and a black jacket — sat among A-list attendees including Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, Hugh Grant and “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig.

Cruise appeared to be having the time of his life as he — much like Prince William the night prior — danced along to the Grammy winner’s hit song “Shake it Off” with his famous peers in the VIP tent.
Swift’s beau, Travis Kelce, was also among stars as he attended his second London concert in a row with his brother and sister-in-law, Jason and Kylie.
Meanwhile in the US, Cruise’s estranged 18-year-old daughter graduated from LaGuardia High School the day prior.

A beaming Suri was photographed greeting friends outside the venue shortly after they received their diplomas.
She also eagerly took pictures with mom Katie Holmes, who proudly stood by her daughter’s side on the special day.

She completed her summery ensemble with a red graduation robe and white sash.
The 45-year-old “Dawson’s Creek” alum, for her part, looked cheerful in beige pleated trousers and a matching collared shirt.
Cruise’s choice to opt out of the graduation does not come as a surprise, as he has been estranged from the teen for years.

Suri even dropped the “Risky Business” actor’s last name in her school’s official graduation pamphlet, opting instead to go by her first and middle names, “Suri Noelle.”
Cruise confirmed in a 2012 deposition that Holmes divorced him “in part to protect Suri from Scientology.”
Followers of the controversial religion are not allowed to associate with nonbelievers.

Suri — who revealed she will attend Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh in the fall — did not let her father’s absence ruin her final days of high school.
Earlier this week, she was seen having a blast with her friends as they took pictures before they went off to prom.
Suri looked like a spitting image of her mother in a ’90s-inspired floral gown that featured a corseted bodice.

Holmes and Cruise split in 2011 nearly six years after tying the knot.
The “Mission Impossible” actor shares daughter Isabella, 31, and son Connor, 29, with ex-wife Nicole Kidman, whom he separated from in 2001 following an 11-year marriage.
Cruise still spends time with his eldest children as they have followed in his Scientology-practicing footsteps.
