Superstar Tom Cruise is back in the role of dad this week as he spends some quality time with daughter Suri, 6, in New York City. The happy reunion has had its share of disruptions, thanks to a throng of paparazzi.

What started as a media frenzy over Tom and Suri outside the Greenwich Village hotel on Tuesday led to a high-speed car chase with paparazzi on Wednesday. His driver reportedly sped through several red lights as he raced the father and daughter to a heliport in Manhattan, reports the New York Daily News. Their black Chevy Suburban was followed by at least 10 cars, six bicyclists and motorcycles during the 20-minute pursuit.
Friday’s People cover story takes a closer look at Tom’s private pain since Katie Holmes filed for divorce June 29 and further explains why it took so long for him to see his daughter.
"He's wanted to see her as fast as possible since this started," a source told the magazine, citing his new movie “Oblivion” as the main obstacle. "He couldn't shut down production, cost people their jobs. People count on him."
The “Rock of Ages” star’s speedy divorce settlement is testament to his commitment to his daughter, according to attorney, Bert Fields. "Tom tried his best to do what's right for Suri," he explained, adding that Tom is “sad,” but not “bitter” about the situation.
Cruise, who just turned 50, is leaning on his family for support. His mother, three sisters and two older children (with ex Nicole Kidman) Connor and Isabella, all Scientologists, have rushed to his side.

Did the paparazzi accomplish anything chasing TC and Suri? It could have been another Diana situation. These idiots put lives in danger. Someone tell me why this can't be stopped?
Hey,tom there is no reason to be sad. It was going to happen anyway she wasn't for you and everyone new it and maybe you did too. so be happy and go on with your life, and don't worry so much about suri she needs her mother and her mother needs her. and suri will always know you are her father, so tom just be happy. susan stassi,
WELL , "TOM" YOU ARE "BETTER" OFF!!!...
" I WOULD NOT GIVE YOU " 5 CENTS " FOR A A Claimed "Women"
I don't get the practice of the high speed chase through the streets of Manhattan (including running through red lights and putting innocent bystanders at risk). If the photographers want to follow, let them! Eventually they'll get their fill of pictures and move on to someone else.
That little girl is gonna be one helluva mess as an adult having grown up with the moronic paparazzi following her every single move as if she the 2nd coming. just awful.
I feel bad for Tom Cruz the media need to leave him and his daughter alone. I feel that Kate has made a major mistake and that her father played a big part in their divorce, it is unfortunate that she let others influence her. I feel that Tom is a good provider, good husband, and a wonderful father her loss is going to be someone elses gain.
So sad, neither side is a winner. It's always the children that hurt the most.i think tom is a very devoted father to all three of his children and i'm sure he'll be just as devoted to suri as he is to his other two kids. Suri is so young and probably doesn't understand why they had to move or why her father's not living at their new house. i'm sure Katie's tried to explain things as best she could and not talk bad about her father. i thought they were a lovely couple and they looked so good together. maybe one day they'll find what their looking for.
