For Tom Cruise, 33 is an unlucky number when it comes to love.
All three of Tom Cruise’s ill-fated marriages have come to an end when his wives were 33, which just happens to be a significant number for the actor’s Church of Scientology.
The original membership organization for the controversial religious group, the Hubbard Association of Scientologists, was founded in Phoenix, Arizona, which lies on the 33rd parallel, Perez Hilton reports.
The number is also the known as the “Master Teacher,” which represents altruism and raising mankind’s positive energy in numerology, according to Seven Life Path.
The characteristics of the “Master Teacher” closely resemble the philosophy behind Scientology, which seeks “to enable Man to improve his lot through understanding,” according to the religion’s official website.
Cruise, who joined the religious group in the 1980s, tied the knot with actress Mimi Rogers when she was 31 in May 1987. The two split just a few years later.
Cruise then wed Nicole Kidman when she was 23 in 1990. The actor filed for divorce in 2001 just two months after the pair renewed their vows on their 10th anniversary.
Katie Holmes announced that she was filing for divorce from the star Friday due to “irreconcilable differences.” The couple have been married for five years.
In each failed marriage, the wives were 33 when the breakups were announced. The first two splits weren’t finalized until the wives were 34.
The bombshell breakup with Holmes is the first time the “Top Gun” star isn’t the one filing the divorce papers.
The former “Dawson’s Creek” star reportedly decided to split with Cruise because she was concerned that the actor would “drag” their 6-year-old daughter Suri farther in to the religion as she gets older, according to TMZ.
A rep for Cruise said the actor is devastated by news of the split.
The couple’s divorce, when finalized, will not be recognized by Scientology.
How embarrassing - We made a big deal out of a friend’s 33rd birthday because it was when a Hobbit came of age ...
had I known it was associated with Scientology, I never would have gone along with it.
Her 5 year contract is up. It was indeed a contract and it expired this year. Cruise is VERY gay. He was one of the very very gay David Geffen’s “house boys” back in the day before he made it big. Oddly enough, so was Brad Pitt who was eye candy around the house for Geffen & Co. before he became famous. Pitt, FYI, is not gay. Like a lot of others Pitt knew that one of the roads to fame is Geffen. Geffen is the guy behind the curtain who splices these kinds of deals together. He was likely the one that got Cher to “reveal” that she had a “secret romance” with Cruise. Yea, sure she did. Wink wink...
Miss Holmes has been very well paid and will continue to be well paid. Her job is not over. The sham marriage may be but now we will get all the phony stories about who gets what, the bogus custody battle, etc. It is drama time. Lights! Camera! Action! The magazines and talk shows will do their job. Story after story of what led up to the “divorce” will be told. Some of it will tell the tale of how “not-gay” Cruise is. It is all scripted and entirely fake. It’s Hollywood!
Holmes will never spill the beans. She is being very well paid and she likely wants to continue acting. And she will be acting. Maybe in movies for Deamworks? You betcha.
Oh, one last thing. Ms. Holmes was one of two actresses in the running for the 5 year deal with Cruise. She beat out Jessica Biel.
So, let me guess. A “Kabumpo” is a bunch of multiple redundant bumps!
There have been plenty of in depth investigations into Scientology.
Katie is in for a tough fight.
Cruise is coming for her..and so is Scientology

They keep their members because of fear. If Katie doesn’t pay a price for her actions others might think they can defect,too. Scientology really brainwashes it’s people.
There are plenty of connections between Scientology and Politics...such as Clinton getting favorable treatment in Primary Colors in exchange for......
I kind of think we all know what Tom Cruise’s problem is. Same as John Travolta.
Marriage is incompatible with narcissism and egoism.
TC’s love of his life is himself.
My 58 year old husband grew up near Hollywood, became a millionaire before 25, and went to a few Hollywood parties. Some starlet bragged about her 20+ abortions. That nipped hobnobbing in the bud for him. Nothing you’ve said is surprising and I have no problem believing it.
And Katie didn't realize this before she got married? Hello?
33 birthday cake candles set off the smoke alarm in Stan Marsh’s closet.
Oh brother...take your pontification to another thread.
Scientology had a goal to make inroads into politics. Ever read the info from Sarah Palin’s buddy John Coale.

Ever heard of Operation Snow White???
Tom Cruise is the de facto Number 2 of the organization.
This site has posts about cats. Recipes...Even if this was just about Cruise, there is nothing wrong with that...but this is about an insidious organization.
But yeah, don’t bother to understand the significance of Katie defecting...
Yes, that one took me aback as well. Perez Hilton a reporter??? Please.
But TC IS a weird Scientology nut (as all are celeb members of that cult), and at least it sounds as if Katie has matured into her own person to the extent she doesn’t want her daughter forced or brainwashed into that madness.
When she and TC first got together, the younger Katie seemed as if she was so in awe of him and totally manipulated into that whole scene, I felt for the child.
Glad she got some sense and backbone as a mother.
The fact that he scored Nicole Kidman at 23 and let her get away just proves to me he is a homo.
"The Hobbit" was written long before L. Ron Hubbard decided to create his own religion, so it's clear the two are not related.
I have some very close friends that have worked in the Hollywood Scene for years. They would agree with you......Miss Holmes is a well paid ‘beard’. And the Church of Scientology is a cover for him and John Travolta.
Hey there - don’t beat up on Rummy Chick. Many of us have no idea who Katie whatever her name is and who she is married to. Getting a summary here on FR is important so we can communicate with the more connected folks.
I think it is possible she had no idea just how bad it is.
Some of the stuff is pretty far out there.
Perhaps she started doing some research on the internet and saw what happens to the Sea Org people. Of course,Celebrities are insulated from a lot of that behavior.
Scientology members have to disconnect Katie.
Her bargaining chip is Suri. She will keep her mouth shut and Tom gives up Suri.
Let the information start to flow...
Katie fired the first shot. She could have handled this through the Scientology process but she chose not to. She is going to pay a price for it...but it sounds like she is ready.
John Travolta is gay?
