Tom Cruise's daughter Isabella talks about secret wedding and why she didn't invite her parents

Tom Cruise's daughter Isabella has opened up about her top-secret Scientology wedding - and why she missed her parents off the guest list.

The Hollywood actor was left off the guest list when his adopted 23-year-old daughter tied the knot with British I.T. consultant Max Parker in London in September last year.

Also absent was mum Nicole Kidman but shrugging off speculation she has a strained relationship with her parents Isabella told Daily Mail Online: "Of course [we talk], they're my parents. Anyone who says otherwise is full of s***."

Isabella, or simply Bella, was raised in the Church of Scientology, where her father is one of its most prominent members.

Asked if it was hard not having the Mission Impossible star walk his daughter down the aisle, Bella's husband Max, 29, said: "Yeah. It is what it is."

The guest list was limited to close friends and Max's parents were also absent at low-key big day at the swanky Dorchester Hotel.

His mum Beverly said she wanted to avoid a "media circus".

The pair reportedly live in an apartment in a converted house in London, which they share with three other tenants, and have rejected financial support from Bella's superstar mum and dad.

Bella reportedly drives a modest Fiat 500 while Max works long hours with his job in IT support.

Asked about having children, Bella said: "I'm 23, so we'll see. I'm still a baby myself."

Sources previously told People magazine Tom, 53, was "totally fine" about missing his daughter's big day.

A source said: "Tom approves of Max and is totally, totally fine with it.

"None of the parents were invited, and Tom was totally cool with it. Tom did pay for the ceremony."

They added Nicole, 58, was thrilled for her daughter , saying: "Nicole is very happy for Bella. She, like all mothers, wants her child to be happy, and it surely seems Bella is very happy."

Tom and Nicole's daughter reportedly met her husband through work after recently graduating from Delamar Academy of Make-up and Hair in West London.
