EXCLUSIVE: SURI CRUISE SNUBS HER FATHER
Suri Cruise has officially wrapped her first year at Carnegie Mellon University — but while her future is full of promise, sources say there’s no room in it for her famous father.
“Suri wants nothing to do with Tom,” a source close to the Cruise-Holmes circle tells #ShuterScoop. “She didn’t see him during her freshman year, and she’s not planning to see him this summer either — not even for his movie.”
The 19-year-old daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, now a rising sophomore at the elite Pittsburgh university, skipped the glitzy premiere of her dad’s latest Mission: Impossible installment — and friends say that was no accident.
“She has zero interest in seeing the film or reconnecting,” adds the insider. “She’s focused on school, her friends, and living a very normal life.”
Sources say Suri — who’s blossomed into the spitting image of her mom — breezed through finals in late April, with makeup exams wrapping May 6.
“She’s thriving at Carnegie Mellon,” says a university source. “She’s smart, grounded, and totally uninterested in fame.”
And while Tom Cruise may be saving the world on-screen, insiders say he remains a ghost off it — not spotted anywhere near his daughter.
“He missed graduation week, just like he missed everything else,” the source adds. “There’s no relationship there. That chapter is closed.”
As Tom chases box office glory, Suri is writing a very different story — one without the Cruise name.
Stay tuned, because this mission is very possible: building a future without Dad.

EXCLUSIVE: PRINCE HARRY & BROOKLYN BECKHAM BOND OVER “AWFUL” PARENTS — ROYAL OUTSIDERS TURN BESTIES
“They get each other,” says insider. “They’ve both been burned.”
Prince Harry and Brooklyn Beckham have quietly formed an unlikely but unbreakable bond — and sources tell #ShuterScoop it’s rooted in one thing: their famously strained relationships with their powerful parents.
“Harry and Brooklyn are trauma twins,” says a Hollywood insider. “They’ve both been branded black sheep and feel misunderstood by their families. They get each other.”
Brooklyn, 26, just completed a hush-hush trip to London without even telling his parents, David and Victoria Beckham — a move that left sources close to the family “stunned” and confirmed what insiders have long suspected: the rift is real.
“Brooklyn didn’t even reach out,” a source said. “David and Victoria didn’t know he was in the UK. That’s how bad it’s gotten.”
And now, he’s spending more and more time privately FaceTiming and messaging another famous runaway: Prince Harry.
“Harry sees a lot of himself in Brooklyn,” a Montecito source says. “They both married women the press love to hate. They’ve both walked away from golden families. And they’ve both taken a beating for it.”
While the Duke of Sussex, 39, has publicly aired his grievances with King Charles and Prince William, Brooklyn has remained mostly silent about his strained dynamic with David and Victoria — though his actions, like skipping family events and avoiding his parents while in town, speak volumes.
“Harry’s told friends he doesn’t judge Brooklyn — he relates to him,” says the source. “They’ve bonded over what it’s like to be the scapegoat in a picture-perfect family.”
As one palace insider puts it: “Harry and Brooklyn are the castoffs.”

EXCLUSIVE: JIMMY KIMMEL DECLARES WAR ON JAKE TAPPER — CANCELS ENTIRE SHOW, LAUNCHES INTERNAL HUNT FOR WHO BOOKED HIM
Jimmy Kimmel didn’t just pull the plug on Monday’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! — he pulled the pin on a network grenade.
“Jimmy hates what Jake did. Full stop,” a high-ranking ABC insider tells #ShuterScoop exclusively. “He thinks the book is cruel, unnecessary, and flat-out disrespectful — especially now.”
The book in question? Jake Tapper’s new release Original Sin, a scathing takedown of President Joe Biden that accuses the Commander-in-Chief of lying about his health and paints him as unfit for office.
The timing couldn’t have been worse — Biden had just revealed he’s battling aggressive prostate cancer.
“He pulled the show to make a point,” the insider adds. “This wasn’t some quiet, behind-the-scenes cancellation. This was Jimmy saying: Not on my watch. Not on my stage.”
Sources tell #ShuterScoop the situation has sparked a full-blown internal investigation at ABC, with executives scrambling to figure out who the hell booked Jake Tapper in the first place.
“He’s livid. People are being called in. Emails are being pulled,” spills a Kimmel staffer. “Heads might roll.”
Tapper was originally scheduled to appear alongside Seth Rogen, who’s in full Emmy campaign mode for his show The Studio. But Kimmel made the rare move to shut down the entire night, airing a rerun instead.
Fans tried to spin it — some floated theories about Kimmel taking time off to celebrate his granddaughter’s birth — but those close to the host say that’s laughable.
“Jimmy isn’t delivering the baby. He’s defending Biden,” quipped one ABC producer. “This was a political decision — and a personal stand.”
Meanwhile, Tapper has stayed eerily silent — and hasn’t reached out to Biden to offer sympathy or support.
“If Tapper wants airtime,” one Hollywood source snarked, “he better try Fox.”

EXCLUSIVE: FORMER HOUSEWIFE VS PLAYBOY BUNNY — KELLY BENSIMON AND KENDRA WILKINSON’S SHOWDOWN
It is Real Housewives glam vs. Girl Next Door grit
Kelly Killoren Bensimon has spent years scrubbing off the spray tan of reality TV and rebranding herself as a serious, stylish force in the real estate world. But now, Playboy pin-up turned open house hustler Kendra Wilkinson is moving in on her turf — and insiders tell #ShuterScoop there’s serious tension brewing.
“Kelly worked her ass off to rebrand. She sees herself as elevated, sophisticated — a cut above the reality crowd she left behind,” a source close to Bensimon says. “To her, Kendra is still just a bunny with a clipboard.”
Kendra, 39, was photographed over the weekend breaking a sweat in Westlake Village while hosting a three-hour open house — for a $1.5 million listing.
“She’s trying to prove she’s more than just a mansion girlfriend,” a real estate insider says. “But make no mistake — Kendra’s not just selling homes. She’s selling a comeback.”
And Bensimon? Let’s just say she’s not impressed.
“Kelly thinks Kendra slept her way into fame and now wants to hustle her way into legitimacy,” a fashion-world frenemy tells #ShuterScoop. “She looks down her nose at it.”
Stay tuned — this real estate rivalry is about to get real.
