Katie Holmes is determined not to end up like Nicole Kidman, who didn't raise her two adopted children, Bella and Connor, with Tom Cruise, and this is one reason she filed for sole custody of the couple's 6-year-old daughter, Suri, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
Cruise's two children with Kidman, Connor and Bella, "lived with their father and Katie during the marriage full-time. They aren't that close to Nicole, and Katie is determined that she won't be cut out of Suri's life," a source close to the situation tells us.
"Bella and Connor are devoted to their father and Scientology, and Katie saw this firsthand, and this is one of the reasons she filed for sole custody. Katie will not be relegated to a secondary role in her daughter's life, period, and she is prepared to fight Tom in court. Katie isn't going to back down, and she will do whatever it takes to ensure that she raises Suri herself," the insider added.
Kidman revealed in a 2007 interview that her kids referred to her as Nicole, and not mom, and Holmes said Connor and Bella called her mom. Isabella, 19, is living with her Scientologist boyfriend, Eddie Frencher, in an apartment in downtown Los Angeles and is pursuing a career as an artist.
