Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes reach divorce settlement
Tom Cruise and his soon-to-be ex-wife Katie Holmes reached a settlement Monday, releasing a joint statement requesting privacy as they work through the terms of both their divorce and custody agreement of their six-year-old daughter, according to a report from People magazine.
The statement seemed to confirm reports that Katie Holmes filed for divorce because she did not agree with Cruise’s religious beliefs and his approach to raising their daughter in the church of Scientology.
“We are committed to working together as parents to accomplish what is in our daughter Suri’s best interests. We want to keep matters affecting our family private and express our respect for each others commitment to each of our respective beliefs and support each other’s roles as parents,” the statement, released Holmes and Cruise’s reps, Nanci Ryder and Amanda Lundberg respectively, read.
