Palace are reported to be concerned about Catherine and Williams growing friendship with tom cruise. They are concerned about them being recruited into Scientology.

Now I hope, that there is no realistic chance that they could be recruited into Scientology. But even having a future king and queen who are sympathetic to scientologists could help this cult. I do believe that Tom Cruise is becoming very friendly to Catherine and William to benefit Scientology in whatever way he can.

@JuniperJumperAre friends only friends if that are godparents?

Huh?

Why on earth would that be hidden? It didn’t break guidelines. Was it automatic?

Trigger word likely….

It’s fine.

Hence the prolific use of 😆

Erm, I've met my postman more than twice but I wouldn't call him a friend.

That analogy makes complete sense 😆😆😆😆

No, he said they were kind, friendly and they got on. Which is fine.

It was a video interview. He did say it.

Doe anyone know if Tom sent W&C a holiday bundt cake?

@Dontpeeonmylegandtellmeitsraining what has this thread got to do with Serena Williams? If you want to start a thread about her I would be happy to contribute.

There are loads of clearly documented events where they’ve met and that ignores any additional private occasions!

Exactly. Tom Cruise is clearly cultivating the friendship.

No, of course not. I was just trying to give evidence of the longstanding history that true friends share.

Brief meetings as part of a working life are not true friendships.

If the POW had some problems he needed to discuss, he isn't going to phone TC and pour his heart out. He would talk to the Westminsters, the Van Cutsems or one of his longstanding friends of whom he has many.

I’m close friends with W&C.

It’s on the internet and therefore must be true.

I can do a video too.

It’s an illustration that condemning someone for a friendship or association based on the religious beliefs of one of them, when there is so much more to that person’s existence than their belief system, is utterly ridiculous. HTH

edit to add: So if you are going to condemn W&C for a friendship (that no evidence has been provided for) with a person with odd and disturbing beliefs, then I presume you will condemn someone with an actual on the record friendship
with someone with odd and disturbing beliefs - namely the Sussexes.

I was concerned when i saw a picture of them together. I think it's not at all appropriate for them to be close to him. I dont think royslty shoild get too close to ANY celebrities. It's a big mistake.

It’s true that if they became Scientologists it could really help their career prospects.

Maybe they could put him in touch with Harry and Meghan??? 🤣

Don't worry, it's just meeting and greeting and pleasantries. Bread and butter for the royals.
It was an event, they were friendly.

Oh a video. You should have said before. Obviously it's true if it's on video.

Exactly. Tom Cruise is clearly cultivating the friendship.

He's not clearly doing anything other than promoting his films.

I imagine royalty would be delighted not to have to get too close to any number of the people they have to get close to.

Trump must be hard work!

JuniperJumper · 04/10/2026 20:53

If anyone can give me concrete evidence that TC has been invited to stay at Anmer Hall I will change my view

But until then I am sticking hard and fast to my viewpoint that this is nothing more than a working relationship

People on here are laughing but it wouldnt be the first time a royal has got caught up with an inappropriate person with a high profile,. would it. They seem to have form when it comes to that. Think the Beckhams are rather cringy round the royals too.

Good lord, I can't tell you how much I admired Catherine for making charming small talk with him!

No. It's not going to happen.
