Why and HOW the Church of Scientology got involved in NicoleKidman and TomCruise's marriage...and divorce 💔
After an ex-Scientology officer made some scathing accusations against the infamous church in his new book, many people are asking: Why did Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman file for divorce? The book A Billion Years: My Escape From a Life in the Highest Ranks of Scientology by Mike Rinder revealed the church’s true intentions for the Eyes Wide Shut stars’ relationship.
However, the Church is said to have felt more threatened by the Moulin Rouge! star. According to Rinder, Nicole “never expressed particular eagerness for her Scientology courses or auditing.” He wrote that her father was a psychiatrist and the Church disavows psychiatry because it delivers improper care and an over-reliance on psychiatric drugs. “Had she not been Mrs. Tom Cruise, she would not have been eligible to participate in OT levels at all due to her familial connection to psychiatry.
Tom and Nicole met on the set of their 1990 movie, Days of Thunder. Within six months of the film’s release, the pair were married and began trying for kids. At the age of 23, Kidman suffered an ectopic pregnancy, which occurs when a fertilized egg implants and grows outside of the uterus. After the heartbreaking experience of losing her first child, Kidman and Cruise decided to adopt two children: a daughter, Isabella, and son, Connor.
The book also claimed that Rathbun turned their children into believing that Nicole was a “SP” or “suppressive person”—a designation held for people who church members must avoid contact with at all costs. Actress and former Scientologist Leah Remini briefly touched on Kidman’s estranged relationship with her kids in her 2016 book, Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology
