Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise got married in 2006 but decided to divorce after six years of marriage. This divorce came as an unpleasant surprise both for some fans of the stars and for Tom Cruise himself, who until the last moment did not believe in the likelihood of such an event.
There are many reasons for the sudden divorce of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, and Cruise's hobby for Scientology is not the most important of them. Much more important was the relationship of the couple themselves, which did not suit Katie. Even her friends and relatives began to notice that she had withdrawn into herself, lost her former friendliness and optimism and turned into a silent and sad shadow of Cruise. Holmes did not notice such changes in her character for a long time, but at a certain moment it became clear to her that she again wanted to become a cheerful, cheerful, charming woman, as she was before. Interestingly, her friends and relatives strongly supported this decision and confirmed that divorce would be the best solution.
A special reason for the divorce was Cruise's relationship to Suri's daughter. Holmes noted in an interview that her husband does not allow her to raise the girl or make any decisions concerning her. For a long time, Katie put up with the role of a silent nanny, but she liked Cruz's methods of upbringing less and less. By divorcing her husband, the star intends to regain the right to decide what is best for Suri, what education should be given to her, etc. She even demanded the right of sole custody, as well as the transfer of the child to her upbringing on the condition that Cruz would only pay alimony, but would not take part in the upbringing of Suri.
And, finally, another reason for the divorce, as noted above, was Cruise's hobby for Scientology and attempts to impose it on Holmes. The last straw was Katie's suspicion that unknown people were following her. Even fans of the star have repeatedly noted that they saw how the same cars were chasing her. Katie feared for her life and that of her daughter, as she believed these persecutors could be Scientology adherents controlling Cruz's life.
