As the New York-based aspiring fashionista celebrates her 18th birthday, FEMAIL looks back on how Katie Holmes removed Scientology from her life.

The daughter of A-listers, 17, has lived in New York with her mother for years. READ MORE:As Suri Cruise turns 18 and prepares to embark upon a career in fashion, her prospects are unlimited - but her life could have ended up looking very different indeed.

As both Katie and Suri enjoy their freedom from the divisive church, they are among the few people to have made a break from Scientology with as little drama as possible. Other prominent figures who have left the Church have claimed they were subject to harassment and intimidation after leaving. MailOnline revealed in 2016 that Katie feared she would lose Suri to Scientology, after seeing how Tom's first wife Nicole Kidman became distanced from the children she adopted with him, Bella and Connor, when they remained within the church after she left.

Ron Miscavige, the father of Scientology leader David, who himself renounced the religion, told DailyMail.com that there is a 'toxic' policy of 'disconnection' operating within the church - which is something Katie feared would be implemented to keep her away from her daughter. Ron's assertions which paint a picture of an oppressive and controlling environment are echoed by other prominent voices who speak out against Scientology after having broken free from the church - an image which the church itself denies.

'I believe I am not the first person targeted by Scientology and its operations, but I intend to be the last.' The couple had married in a lavish Scientology ceremony in Italy in 2006, and Katie officially entered the churchIn 2015, a documentary about the Church, Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief revealed an in-depth look into how the church operates and claims made by people who have left about what happened to them.

Katie is said to be 'overwhelmed' by the idea of her daughter Suri applying for colleges to study fashion Marty Rathbun, a former senior executive of the Church of Scientology, said an aggressive campaign was launched to break up the couple. The Church denounced the allegations made in the explosive film upon its release. In a five-page letter to the Hollywood Reporter, the church said: 'By our calculation, the film on average includes at least one major error every two minutes.'

Film director Paul Haggis has also been a prominent voice against the church. After he was found liable for the rape of a PR executive, he claimed the allegations had been orchestrated by the church and vowed to clear his name The Hollywood actor would also pay for Suri's medical and dental expenses as well as her insurance, education costs and college tuition. The money is reportedly paid by electronic transfer.

The last photo of the Top Gun actor out and about with his daughter was a trip to Disneyland in 2012, the year his divorce from Katie was finalised. As Suri reaches adolescence and begins a new stage of her life, another source close to Katie told Dailymail.com: 'Being raised by a single mom in New York has made Suri who she is. Katie has always put Suri first and Suri loves her mom more than anything.

She said: 'I always want the highest level of talent. So I asked her! She's very, very talented. She said she would do it and she recorded it, and I let her do her thing.' Tom Cruise and his ex-wife Nicole Kidman pictured in 1996 in Sydney, Australia with their son Connor and daughter Bella
