Katie Holmes Files For Divorce From Tom Cruise

It was recently announced that Actress Katie Holmes filed for divorce from her husband, Actor Tom Cruise, in New York City.

Los-Angeles-based attorney Bert Fields told Reuters, "Tom is very saddened by that, and right now he is concentrating on the kids."

Fields said he was not representing Cruise in the divorce, but was speaking as a friend. He would not give a reason for the filing, saying only that "Tom wants to be very private."

The pair married in an extravagant wedding ceremony in Italy in 2006 and they have one daughter together, Suri, who is six years old. Cruise, who is 49, has been among the world's highest-paid actors. The "Mission Impossible" star was previously married to actress Mimi Rogers and actress Nicole Kidman, with whom he has two children.

Holmes, 33, rose to fame on the U.S. television series "Dawson's Creek"  and has worked in big-budget movies like "Batman Begins." Holmes marriage to Cruise is her first.

"This is a personal and private matter for Katie and her family," Jonathan Wolfe told People. "Katie's primary concern remains, as it always has been, her daughter's best interest."

According to USA Today, Cruise has been spotted in Iceland this week where he has been shooting a movie called "Oblivion."

"Katie's primary concern remains, as it has always been, her daughter's best interest," Wolfe said in a statement.
