The actor of the famous action movie series, the most prestigious A-list star in Hollywood, the dream man of every girl in the 2000s are the names people often fondly call Tom Cruise .
Possessing money, fame and a successful career, Tom Cruise seems to have everything a man desires. However, few people know that behind the man who has a seemingly perfect life is a turbulent past and a difficult love life.
Unhappy childhood, lack of affection
Tom Cruise was born in 1962 in New York, USA. He grew up in a family of four siblings of English, German and Irish descent. Since childhood, Tom Cruise had to live in poverty and lack of parental love. The actor was often beaten and abused by his father.
Describing his biological father, Tom Cruise did not hesitate to say that his father was “a coward and a bully. If things get bad, people like him will abandon you. The time I spent with him gave me a great lesson in life, there are people who will comfort you, make you feel safe, then “bang”, they will knock you down.” Not only that, his father also abandoned him and his three sisters when Tom was 12 years old.
Lacking his father’s affection, Tom Cruise was also repeatedly rejected by his mother when she thought her son was a spoiled child because he constantly had alcohol-related problems when he was a teenager.
After that, Tom Cruise’s mother remarried another man while he still harbored resentment towards his biological father. A life of lack of love and lack of support from his parents forced the actor to have to go to school and work part-time from a very early age.
Unfortunately, Tom’s education did not go well because he suffered from Dyslexia – a syndrome that causes difficulty in reading and spelling. At the same time, a serious knee injury while playing rugby at school made him decide to find a new path: participating in plays and gradually entering the cinema path.
With his acting talent and strong, attractive appearance, cinema has smiled on Tom Cruise. He continuously achieved a lot of success and made his name a Hollywood superstar in just a short period of time.
From 1981 to present, Tom Cruise has made his mark with a series of classic action roles such as “Top Gun” (1986), “A Few Good Men” (1992), and the series “Mission Impossible”.
However, a glorious career is not proportional to love. Tom Cruise has had three marriages but they all have one thing in common: unexpected endings with countless unanswered mysteries.
3 thrilling marriages
Tom Cruise first married at the age of 25. His first wife was actress Mimi Rogers , 6 years older than him. However, the two only lived together for more than 2 years and decided to “go their separate ways” in 1989, when Mimi was 33 years old.

After the divorce, the couple avoided mentioning each other much in the press. Just one year later, Tom quickly got married to “Australian swan” Nicole Kidman. The 1990s were considered the golden age of the couple, the two were immersed in a praised marriage for 10 years.
During that time, they adopted two babies, Connor and Isabella. However, in 2001, Tom suddenly filed for divorce from Nicole Kidman, while she was pregnant with their first child.
The shock of marriage caused Nicole to have a miscarriage. Sadly, she lost faith in love and life for a long time. “He left behind the divorce papers and coldly left the house without any explanation. I begged him to stay but couldn’t,” Nicole said. Notably, when Tom Cruise abandoned Nicole, she was 33 years old.
Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman were once known as the “talented boy and girl” couple for a long time.
After that, the “Mission Impossible” actor experienced several love stories with beauties like Penelope Cruz or Sofia Vergara , but they also ended short-lived.
In 2006, Tom Cruise remarried for the third time with actress Katie Holmes , and the two have a beautiful daughter, Suri, together. It was thought that Tom had regained the image of a happy family man, but in 2012, the actor once again faced a broken marriage. This time, the person who applied to the court was Katie Holmes. She won custody of her child and decided to choose a quiet life with her daughter at the age of 33.
After three marriages ended, the coincidence that surprised many people was the age of Tom Cruise’s ex-wives. All three chose to end their married life at the age of 33.
Many theories believe that this number 33 is closely related to Scientology – a religious organization that Tom Cruise was introduced to by his first wife Mimi Rogers. Accordingly, information about the Scientology sect also received attention and was “brought to light” by the media.

According to information provided by Perez Hilton – a Scientology researcher, the first Scientology church was established in Phoenix, Arizona, located on the 33rd parallel. According to this sect, the number 33 is for the “leader”. ”. Number 33 is also believed to have the power to heal through love and people with life path number 33 are often altruistic and love unconditionally.
When Tom divorced Nicole Kidman, the actress was also indifferent to her two adopted children. The reason is said to be that Connor and Isabella chose to follow their father’s Scientology sect with the rule of cutting off ties with outsiders.
Nicole was cut off from her two children and was not even invited to her daughter’s wedding, even though at the time they were both living in the same city.
In an interview at the end of September 2019, Nicole shared: “My children chose to become members of Scientology. But our job as parents is to love them unconditionally.” The actress also added: “There is only one thing: I will be here to love and protect my children.”
Not only that, the marriage between Tom and Katie is also rumored to be an arranged marriage. In an article in Vanity Fair magazine in 2012, special reporter Maureen Orth shed light on the fact that the Scientology sect had a secret wife selection for Tom Cruise after the devout actor divorced Nicole Kidman.
Katie Holmes was the chosen one and she agreed on the conditions to become Tom Cruise’s wife after he broke up with his girlfriend Nazanin Boniadi. The day Ketie “got away” it seemed like she had been preparing for a long time, she was determined to take her daughter Suri away from the influence of her father and the cult and not lose her like Nicole Kidman.
Over the years, from a loving and pampered father to his daughter, Tom seemed to become cold and indifferent towards Suri. Katie also chooses a quiet life, she avoids letting her daughter come into too much contact with the media lens.
5 years since her divorce from her ex-husband, Katie has just publicly dated another man. It is rumored that even though she is divorced, she is still under the constraints of her marriage with her ex-husband with requirements such as: not being able to mention their life together to the public and not being able to publicly love anyone within 5 years. years since their divorce.
After 5 years of divorcing Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes dared to publicly announce her relationship with Jamie Foxx.
Until now, rumors surrounding Tom Cruise’s religious fanaticism still raise many questions. With controversies about his unstable love life and strange behavior from fanaticism, the actor lives a lonely life at the age of 57. He does not justify not visiting his children for the past 6 years and it seems going into the same “wrong car” that his father caused in the past.
