While there is peace, the world is crazy, and the insane also wins! The theme of this discussion will, for the time being, be a flashback to when Suri Cruise, the daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, was first reported on. All of these rumors also seem far-fetched to be real.
In the now-defunct year of 2005, during the sizzling month of April, Tom Cruise, then 42, made an appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show and professed his love for Katie Holmes.
Sadly, their marriage didn’t last too long, but they had Suri Cruise together- a celebrity kid who already had the media and news team surrounding her mother Holmes even before Suri came out of the womb- and it’s all because of crazy rumors!
The Crazy Rumor Surrounding The Birth Of Tom Cruise’s Daughter Suri Cruise
Top Gun star Tom Cruise is a man of many faces, he could be Les Grossman, Roy Miller, Jack Reacher, or even the popular Ethan Hunt. But the legendary actor is simply a Scientologist in real life, and that belief came back to bite him as it was used to generate some crazy rumors surrounding the birth of his daughter Suri Cruise.

One rumor that spread around like fire at the time of Suri’s birth was that Scientologists believe in the birth of a child without the sound of the mother’s pain- basically a silent birth. Rumors spread around tabloids and newspapers that Cruise’s wife Katie Holmes was made to give a silent birth.
As reported by PEOPLE at the time, the American weekly magazine gave some shocking reports of how Holmes was supposed to behave while giving birth, pointing all fingers towards a custom mandated by believers of Scientology-
“In the tradition of fellow Scientologists Leah Remini and Kelly Preston, Katie Holmes is expected to attempt a Scientology laboring and birth experience when she has Tom Cruise’s baby next spring.”
“As they do with most everything, Scientologists have guidelines for the process, which includes birth without meds (a fairly normal birth choice for some women anyway). However, here’s the kicker – mothers are to attempt a silent birth, because they believe that it is traumatic for the baby to hear their mother cry or groan in pain while they are being born.”
Your mother would probably tell you that it was a terrible time because of all the pain if you ever asked her about how you were born. So it sounds impossible to imagine giving birth without making any noise.
However, There Is Some Truth To The Rumor As Tom Cruise Said
It seems like the custom of silent births is quite popular among Scientologists. For someone who doesn’t believe in the movement, it would be audacious to think that such a concept is allowed to breed.

In fact, the rumor sounds too stupid to be true. But Tom Cruise has clarified on TV that the rumor is true, at least partially. Speaking to Diane Sawyer in 2006, the Knight & Day star removed the clouds of doubt on what silent births actually mean to Scientologists-
“It’s basically just respecting the mother, you know, and helping to be quiet — not the mother. The mother makes as much noise … you know, she’s going through it. But why have other people make noise? You know, you want that area very calm and to make it very special.”
The fact that Holmes was actually permitted to make noise while giving birth is a notable distinction between Cruise’s statements and the circumstances of the story. Yes, he violated his own Scientology principles by allowing the love of his life—at the time—to scream as loudly as she pleased during the delivery of their child. But who wouldn’t?
