A Rocky Marriage
Tom and Katie tied the knot in a Scientologist ceremony in 2006, shortly after welcoming their daughter, Suri Cruise. However, their marriage took a dark turn when members of the Church of Scientology moved into their Los Angeles home. Sources claim that Katie felt intimidated by the church and worried they would turn Suri against her.
Sole Custody and Estrangement
As part of their divorce agreement, Katie was granted sole custody of Suri. Over the years, Tom has become estranged from their daughter.
