Tom Cruise’s son just posted a rare selfie, giving a glimpse of his life in Florida

Connor Cruise doesn’t always post selfies. But when he does, they revolve around his outdoorsy lifestyle in Florida.

A scan of Tom Cruise’s son’s Instagram reveals his last post was dated April 2023, on the greens at Pelican Golf Course in Belleair, in the Tampa Bay area.

But over the weekend, eagle eyed social media users noticed the 29 year old (whose mother is Nicole Kidman) shared a Story — back at the same exact place almost a year later. The sometime DJ/actor is smiling in front of a water hazard with a golfing buddy, who is tagged Jayce Kitzinger.

Connor has been living in the Sunshine State a while; besides golfing, he’s also an avid fisherman, enjoying that salt life. In 2022, he won the grand prize in the Sarasota Slam annual tournament, catching a massive, 300-plus pound Warsaw Grouper, which he went on to donate to local food banks.

Though you’d be hard pressed to see any snaps of his famous parents on his timeline, Connor is occasionally spotted out with the “Top Gun” superstar, who maintains an apartment in Clearwater, near Scientology headquarters. The last known outing was last December at a Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Florida Panthers game, as per ex NFL player Derrick Brooks who took a viral picture at Amalie Arena. Older sister Bella was also along for the trip. The 31 year old, whose account is set to private, apparently is based in London and keeps a low profile.
