Rare snap shows Tom Cruise with adopted kids

For years, there were no public photos of Tom Cruise and his adopted kids. But, the trio's snap finally comes in public light showing the family's strong bond.

In the picture, the Mission Impossible star was posing with his son Connor and daughter Isabella as he shared them with her ex-wife Nicole Kidman.

The NFL top star Derrick Brooks shared the picture after the last time the trio was snapped in a football match in 2009.

Interestingly, the photo was again clicked in a match on December 28—though it was a hockey game—but what's noteworthy is the 51-year-old foundation has ties with The Church of Scientology, according to the Daily Mail.

"Good Evening, Wow, look who stopped by my office before our @tblightninggame tonight! @tomcruise. I was a little star-struck but played it cool and He said he was too!," he captioned.

Earlier, reports were making rounds Nicole wanted her kids to be at the  49th AFI Lifetime Achievement Award event but reportedly it did not work out.

In light of these reports, it was suggested the children are closer to Tom than their Oscar-winner mother.
