Tom Cruise was spotted enjoying himself at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour show in London on Saturday night.
The star was all smiles as he traded friendship bracelets with fans at Wembley Stadium, just a day after his daughter Suri’s high school graduation in New York City.
Cruise, 61, donned dark wash jeans, a white T-shirt, and a black jacket as he joined other A-listers like Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, Hugh Grant, and “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig.
The actor appeared to be in high spirits, dancing to Swift’s hit “Shake It Off” with his famous peers in the VIP tent, much like Prince William did the night before.
Swift’s boyfriend, NFL player Travis Kelce, also made an appearance, attending his second consecutive London concert with his brother Jason and sister-in-law Kylie.
In September 2023, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce went public with their relationship when Swift attended the first of 13 Chiefs football games.
In an interview with TIME magazine , Swift explained, “When you say a relationship is public, it means I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there, and we don’t care.”
She added, “The opposite of that is going to great lengths to keep a relationship secret. We’re just proud of each other.”
The event was packed with high-profile attendees who enjoyed the energetic performance.
The highlight of the evening occurred when the star captured an iconic pop-culture selfie , posing alongside Prince William, Prince George, and Princess Charlotte. The royals shared a delightful moment with the singer .
Earlier during the concert, the Prince of Wales surprised the audience with his energetic dad-dancing moves while enjoying the festivities with his children and thousands of Londoners.
Taylor Swift was visibly moved by the enthusiastic crowd, expressing, “Oh my God, London, look at what you’ve accomplished. What better way to spend a Friday night than in the most exhilarating city in the world?”
This London performance held special significance for Swift, who has a strong connection to the city, having called it her second home during her six-year relationship with British actor Joe Alwyn.
Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, Cruise’s 18-year-old daughter, Suri, celebrated her graduation from LaGuardia High School.
Suri was photographed beaming and greeting friends outside the venue after receiving her diploma.
She also posed for pictures with her mother, Katie Holmes, who proudly stood by her side on this special day.
Suri opted for a white sundress and flower-adorned heels, completing her look with a red graduation robe and white sash.
Holmes, 45, looked chic in beige pleated trousers and a matching collared shirt.
Cruise’s decision to skip the graduation was expected, given his estranged relationship with Suri.
The graduation pamphlet listed her as “Suri Noelle,” reflecting her choice to drop her father’s last name.
This estrangement dates back to Cruise’s confirmation in a 2012 deposition that Holmes divorced him partly to protect Suri from Scientology, which discourages followers from associating with non-believers.
Despite her father’s absence, Suri seemed unfazed, enjoying her final days of high school with friends.
Earlier in the week, she was seen taking pictures before prom in a ’90s-inspired floral gown with a corseted bodice.
Suri is set to attend Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh this fall.

Tom Cruise’s family relationships have been marked by complexity and public interest.
Cruise married Nicole Kidman in 1990, and they adopted two children, Isabella and Connor. The couple divorced in 2001 after 11 years of marriage .
Both Isabella and Connor have followed in their father’s footsteps, embracing Scientology, and maintaining a close relationship with Cruise.
Cruise’s marriage to Katie Holmes in 2006 brought the birth of his daughter Suri. However, their relationship took a turn, leading to a divorce in 2011.
The divorce was partly driven by Holmes’s desire to protect Suri from Scientology. Since the split, Cruise’s relationship with Suri has been strained, and he has been largely absent from her life.
Katie Holmes has been a constant presence in Suri’s life, supporting her through various milestones.
Holmes was seen proudly standing by Suri’s side at her graduation, symbolizing their close bond and her role as the primary caregiver.
Cruise’s family dynamics highlight the challenges of balancing a high-profile career with personal relationships, especially when complicated by differing beliefs and lifestyles.
While his connections with Isabella and Connor remain intact, his estrangement from Suri underscores the impact of his personal choices on his family ties.
