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.

To clarify I have killed a thread because I have asked for clarification re derailing? 🤔

I didn’t think they were counting as Royals but either way I’m not interested in them & don’t see the relevance of them to this thread?

Edited

Well they quite clearly do count as royals, most particularly to our head of state who keeps them on the royal website as part of the royal family.

You are not the only poster on this thread, are you. Why shouldn’t posters point out other royal associations with individuals with controversial religious beliefs? It’s completely relevant to the question of whether anyone should be worried about Tom Cruise. Because it points to the fact that all royals associate with these types of people because of their life’s accomplishments and the benefits and influence these accomplishments may confer on a charity/cause/the state, not because they want to start worshipping at the alter of Xenu or whichever sky pixie they believe in.

@Dontpeeonmylegandtellmeitsraining

but why are you labelling me a hypocrite?

And you claimed Harry considers himself a working Royal (read your post back) but does the Palace agree with this?

drolldrill · 04/10/2026 22:15

And some people are saying the relationship with TC is strictly a working one so I think whether you are a working Royal or not is relevant.

Constantrunner · 04/10/2026 22:15

The palace are right to be concerned and keep a close eye on this

Can they also not have friends that are muslim in case they convert to Islam?

TC and the Wales might be friends. That still doesn't mean they're in danger of being converted to Scientology. I mean, God forbid that people who are friends or even acquaintances have different beliefs.

I don’t understand the faux angst on here (well I do actually, we all know the real reason behind this thread) so what if they were actually best buddies with TC? are we only allowed to be friends with people who think and believe exactly the same as ourselves? How ridiculous, I have friends of different faiths and beliefs, one of my besties is a bit of a flat earther! So what? Doesn’t mean I believe what she believes, we are still great friends.

No the palace don't to my knowledge accept that Harry is a working royal, even though he is on record saying he considers himself to be one because he's royal and he woks. But he is a royal and you said in your post complaining about derailment that he is not a royal.

They are not concerned, they are not keeping a close eye. This is because there is nothing happening apart from some bizarre, unfounded and unsubstantiated gossip.

Exactly! The whole premise is utter nonsense.
This was an enjoyable and funny thread, because everyone realised that it was, and had a laugh with it!

I think there’s a difference between me & who is in line to the throne.

What’s the real reason behind the thread @BigWillyLittleTodger does there have to be an agenda to have an opinion?

So why mention what he thinks? It’s not relevant is it?

How would the Royal board survive without gossip?!

Well, it's certainly been entertaining! Just because it's a total fabrication, doesn't mean to say we can't have a laugh at the idea anyone could give it credibility!

Read the full thread I can’t be bothered to explain to you when I’ve already stated what I think.

Media report the palace are concerned about this friendship.

But the royal supporters here somehow by magic know this is totally false. It's strange how you all just magically know. Or maybe you can't entertain the idea that there might be some genuine concern

Please link the statement from the Palace with these concerns.

According to Tom Cruise he has known William since he was a child because Diana brought him to the set of MI1.

TC was very starstruck with Diana too.

Which occasions?

Which media reports?

Which palace? Who is saying this?

What its wrong with having a friendship with someone because they have a religious belief? Are you friends/colleagues with someone from a religion/different religion? Are you in danger of spontaneously converting to that religion due to spending a small number of hours with that person per year?

OwningItOneSpikeAtATime · 04/10/2026 22:48

I think friendship is a two way thing.

If only one person is shouting about it?

Hmm.

Where is this interview? I watched the one where he talks about seeing them at the premiere and no, he doesn’t say that they’re friends.

They are not verified, or they don't say what you claim.
