Tom Cruise’s ‘33’ problem: He’s split with all 3 of his wives when they hit that age

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.

They didn’t leave him. He left them. Katie is the one that fired the first shot.

But I suspect he knew...but maybe not.

"John Travolta is gay?"

Well, let's just say it appears he is happy when he is with someone besides his wife, and someone who is a different 'gender' than his wife. LOL

btw, think about this.

All Katie had to do was stick around another 5 years and she would have an incredible amount of money . But to do that ..Suri would have been subject to Sec Checks. Tom might have wanted her to sign a billion year contract.

She is getting out for Suri.

33, which just happens to be a significant number for the actor’s Church of Scientology. .

I never heard of this in all the years I was in Scientology.

Tom Cruise is the de facto Number 2 of the organization.

Thanks for cluing me in. The grocery line I was in was only long enough for me to read about the fact that Brad Pitt is really a space alien.

I think this is something Someone has put together on their own..and not part of Scientology..but then again...you might have to pay your way to OT VIII before you know the secret.
