Tom Cruise admits Scientology was factor in divorse

Tom Cruise has revealed some stunning secrets about his private life as part of a £31 million court battle. The actor has launched legal action against two US mags after he was accused of abandoning daughter Suri, seven, and not seeing her for four months following his split from Katie Holmes, 34, in June 2012.



“Tom wants Katie and their old life together back,” a source told The ENQUIRER. “He’s done a lot of thinking lately and came to the conclusion that he’s still as close to Katie as anyone else in his life.” Another insider told The ENQUIRER: “Tom is in constant contact with Katie about Suri via phone and email, and he’s realized that he wants Katie back. “There’s no other woman in his life, and he wants the three of them to be a family again, especially with the holidays around the corner.”

The pain of the split showed in recently published legal documents, in which Tom admitted that after the divorce he didn’t see Suri for 110 days, although he stayed in touch by phone and email. “When I was working overseas and not able to see Suri in person, we were (and continue to be) extremely close,” the superstar testified during a deposition in his defamation lawsuit against a media organization.


The 7-year-old budding fashionista hit the streets of New York City Wednesday rocking a tan fur coat and flower-topped mittens as she made her way in the building with her nanny and bodyguard.

“We spoke on the phone nearly every day….as my numerous emails with Suri’s mother during this time demonstrated I was a constant presence in Suri’s life during that time…” The deposition Tom gave “was obviously a tremendous ordeal for him,” said the source. “His friends were all wondering why he put himself through it but now feel that he was baring his soul to show Katie he’s a good family man and regrets the bad things that have happened.

1 The actor flies exclusively by private jet. Tom told the court he's flown commercially just once during the past three years, from Dubai to LA.

2 Tom only saw Suri for about 10 days between June and November 2012. This was due to a ‘very brutal' shooting schedule in London for the upcoming flick Edge Of Tomorrow.

3 Rather than Skype or FaceTime when he's away, Tom talks to Suri over the phone. He says he's ‘really good at telling stories'.

4 Tom's 'fessed that some of his movies aren't very good! When the attorney interviewing him admitted he was pretty surprised that people would ‘throw away one of your films,' Tom joked: ‘They should throw away a few of them.'

5 Katie filed for divorce to protect Suri from Scientology. Tom says: ‘That was one of her assertions, yes.'
