Cruise, who was previously married to actresses Mimi Rogers and Nicole Kidman, wed Holmes in a lavish ceremony in Italy in 2006.

It followed whirlwind romance in which the couple earned the sobriquet TomKat.

In June, 2012, the actress, mother to daughter Suri, filed for divorce in a move that apparently blindsided the Mission: Impossible megastar.

The divorce was finalized within two months. 

The actor and producer is estimated to be worth $470 million, according to the Celebrity Net Worth website.
