Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz's love story!
The love story of Tom Cruise and Penelope Cruz lasted three years. He wanted to marry her but his sect got in the way of their love.
Tom Cruise is one of the most famous actors in the world and his name is known in all corners of the planet. Apart from his roles, he is also known for his turbulent love life. Also is known that he is connected with Scientology, and this connection greatly influenced his private life.
The actor has been married three times, and all three of his marriages are associated with Scientology. His first wife, Mimi Rogers, was the one who introduced him to the world of this bizarre religion. After her, he married actress Nicole Kidman, and much has been written about how their marriage broke down due to growing pressure from the Church of Scientology. Tom reportedly turned their adopted children against her, and they also joined the cult. His third wife, Katie Holmes, is still not talking about their divorce, and, as a former member of the Church of Scientology, actress Leah Remini, commented that it is so because she is being blackmailed by Scientologists.

‘I kept wondering why Katie Holmes or Nicole Kidman didn’t speak up. I guess they made them sign contracts that forbid them to. Trust me, Katie is not allowed to go out to lunch with me, and we were close friends. She fears that she will lose custody of Suri. It's really sick, ' said Leah in an interview.
In addition to these three relationships that grew into marriages, Tom was in a relationship with another Hollywood star, Penelope Cruz, and it is written that Scientology is the reason for their split up after three years of relationship.
Tom and Penelope met on the set of the 2000 film ‘Vanilla Sky’. In the film, Tom played a millionaire who fell in love with Sofia, a character played by Penelope Cruz.
Sparks seem to have ignited among the actors as well, although Tom was still married to Nicole Kidman at the time. They divorced the following year, and shortly after the divorce, he began appearing with Penelope. Many at the time speculated that their relationship began while Tom was still married, but he denied it.
‘I’ve never fallen in love with someone I work with. With Penelope it happened later ' he said in an interview. Although it is not known exactly when their relationship began, the acting couple spent three years together officially, from 2011 to 2004.
Tom was reportedly so crazy about her that he planned to propose to her, but not everything went according to plan. Namely, although the couple kept their intimacy away from the public eye, foreign media wrote about how Tom has problems with fitting his beloved into his family and how his children do not accept her. Penelope, on the other hand, was reportedly furious that Tom is in contact with Nicole on a regular basis. The cherry on top was his connection to Scientology, which he tried to get her into.
‘Tom absolutely planned to propose to Penelope and they openly discussed the marriage during the three years they spent together. He was madly in love with her and he wished to spend their lives together, and she felt the same,' a source close to the former couple told Radar magazine.

Penelope, however, decided to end the relationship because she felt the Church of Scientology was the ‘third wheel’ in their relationship. Penelope had nothing against Scientology, but it just wasn't for her. She admired Tom's devotion, but she was not ready to give up her life because of that ', the source pointed out.
The official explanation was that their relationship simply no longer worked.
'They have remained good friends and often hang out. There was no third person ', Penelope's media representatives said. Penelope spoke nicely of Tom after the break.
'He is a very good man and I am close to his whole family, including his children. I love his children, his mom and his whole family. He is really a wonderful man. People who have been nice to me, are untouchable. I am very loyal to people who meant something to me and were kind to me, ' Penelope said in an interview two years after breaking up with the actor.
