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.
Sorry, everyone, for the multiple postings. I was out and about on my cellphone - I don’t know why this happened.

I believe that isthisnickcool, post number 43, is correct.
Nannies talk, my daughter is one..and word was that yes, Tom is gay and yes, his marriage to Katie was a contract.
He is also a control freak and his mother and sisters are scary.

Interesting article.
I’m skeptical though, when they talk about how the Scientologists are anti-gay. That doesn’t pass the smell test.
“I kind of think we all know what Tom Cruise’s problem is. Same as John Travolta.”
LOL - I would’ve said it if you hadn’t. Additionally, it came out some time ago that poor ole John has a collection of some 200 toupees and hairpieces!
Interesting how we haven’t heard any more about the gay sexual harassment suits lately, though, isn’t it? Probably settled for big bucks.
For another, the President of the United States letting a Hollywood producer have access to secret information on the Bin Laden raid .

I believe she was raised Catholic. I hope she'll find a good priest who can counsel her.
All I want to know is who gets the P-51 Mustang he owns.

I'd prefer not to name names. Suffice to say that Hollywood types have a lot of help around the house and maybe I know some of that help....
Numerologu = stupidity. Just ask God.....
