The intense scrutiny on Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ family life resulted in constant paparazzi attention, especially towards their young daughter. To protect her daughter’s privacy, Holmes decided to take a break from her career, eventually returning to acting in 2011.
In 2012, the high-profile couple separated, five years after their wedding in Italy. Given their status as a celebrity couple, it is not surprising that their split sparked numerous rumors and speculations. One of the commonly discussed reasons for their breakup was Holmes’ alleged mistrust of the Church of Scientology.

Katie Holmes filed for divorce from Tom Cruise in New York, as it was believed this would improve her chances of obtaining sole custody of Suri. The state typically prefers not to grant joint custody to conflicted parents. By gaining full custody, Holmes was able to distance her daughter from Scientology.
Tom Cruise was reportedly caught off guard by the divorce, which prevented him from controlling the narrative, as he had been accused of doing during his split with Nicole Kidman. Nonetheless, Holmes’ commitment to protecting her daughter’s privacy and well-being remains steadfast to this day.
