Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman‘s son, Connor Cruise, made a rare public appearance at the 2026 World Series and shared a glimpse of his outing with friends on social media.
In Instagram stories reviewed by EntertainmentNow, Connor, 31, shared a selfie with friends while attending Game 4 of the 2026 World Series in Florida, where he watched the Tampa Bay Rays defeat the Milwaukee Brewers.
The outing offered another look at the famously private celebrity son, who has largely stayed out of the public eye despite having two of Hollywood’s biggest stars as parents.
Although Connor rarely discusses his famous family publicly, his latest World Series appearance gave fans another glimpse into the life he’s built in Florida.

Unlike his famous parents, Connor has largely stayed out of the entertainment spotlight. The Florida resident occasionally shares updates about his interests, including deep-sea fishing, golf, and spending time with friends.
He has also worked as a DJ and pursued other interests outside acting.
His older sister, Isabella Cruise, has similarly maintained a low profile, pursuing a career in art and design.

Nicole Kidman Has Spoken About Her Relationship With Connor and Isabella
Nicole, 59, has long preferred to keep details of her relationship with her two eldest children private.
In a 2018 interview with Australia’s Who magazine, the Oscar-winning actress discussed Connor and Isabella’s decision to follow Scientology, the religion their father practices.
“They are adults,” she said. “They are able to make their own decisions. They have made choices to be Scientologists and as a mother, it’s my job to love them.”
Nicole also emphasized the importance of maintaining her children’s privacy and offering unconditional love.
The “Big Little Lies” actress and Tom married in 1990 after meeting while working on “Days of Thunder.” Their divorce was finalized in 2001.
Nicole later welcomed daughters Sunday Rose, 18, and Faith Margaret, 15, with her former husband, country singer Keith Urban.
