Holmes, Cruise divorce

Holmes and Cruise decide to divorce after five years of marriage. Cruise admits his surprise that Holmes files for divorce five days before his 50th birthday.

To be 50 and to have experiences and to think you have a grip on everything, and then it hits you — this is it, what life can do to you. Life is a tragicomedy. You need to have a sense of humor.

Holmes attorney Jonathan Wolfe:

This is a personal and private matter for Katie and her family. Katie’s primary concern remains, as it always has been, her daughter’s best interest.
