Tom Cruise's 'no dating publicly for 5 years' clause in TomKat divorce

[OlderGolder]

The nerve of him!

Wow. Did he think it would make him look (more) foolish or people would pity him if she was publicly happy! wow.

If she called the shots in the divorce why was he allowed to stipulate such a clause?

Apparently, which is why she was able to do it all.

Do what all?

^ I assume haggis means her being able to ensure Suri was not brought up as a scientologist.

Ah ok.

Isn't it amazing the difference in publicity for their little girl since they divorced? She used to be touted about everywhere but I can't remember the last time she was papped that I'm aware of. Tom cruise is such a strange person.

Circumlator why bring his height into it?

That kind of attitude is why we see parents on this website worrying about their smaller boys.

LEave it out.

He's shot himself in the foot there because it just proves him to be the twat we already knew he was. Did he think the clause would never make the news if it was kept quiet for 5years? The fact he needed it at all speaks volumes about the man.

Typical Tom Cruise. He's a control freak who's completely and utterly whacko.

Yes, I meant getting divorced, custody and no scientology.

It's so odd isn't it. When you see him interviewed he seems like a great guy. He gives so much to his fans. And everyone who works with him seems to love him.

But still these stories keep coming out. For years and years. I can't quite get my head round it.

And yeah, leave his height out of it.

I think he is a great salesman. Himself and his agenda being the product. I think he must be very good at convincing people that what he wants is the best things ever. Unless KH was in a particularly vulnerable place when she met and married him I can't see how else he managed to persuade her to do it. she always comes across as a tuned in kind of person.

I doubt that this clause (if that's what it was) had any bearing on why he hasn't maintained a relationship wit his daughter.
I imagine Cruise is an ego maniac and expects nothing less than devotion from everyone in his inner circle. Suri was tainted by her mother's dislike so was shut out. That's my theory.
Good for Katie I say.

🤔

I didn't bring anyone's height into it. I said 'It's exactly the kind of controlling thing you'd expect that little man to stipulate!'. Little as in small in character. Pretty obvious I'd have said. It's not as though he's short enough for it to be noteworthy.

There have been a few pictures here and there of KH and JF... but always maintained they were just friends. I wonder if we'll ever know if this clause was true...

At least KH seems to have gotten out With custody of her child. Nicole wasn't so lucky..

Maudlin I think his 'religion' would have encouraged him to cut ties with his child as her mother is what they refer to as a 'suppressive person'.

Circumlocutor I suspect you might be right.
Bloody awful on the child whatever the truth. But maybe she is better off out of it.

Oh just come across this thread i read about the clause it is all very odd but i guess Katie agreed for a reason she really did well to get away from Tom and his cult with Suri I don't think Nicole was as lucky on a lighter note Jamie Foxx though

Course he comes across as a 'great guy' in his interviews!!! He's an actor! 🙄

Yeah, course Circumlocutor his height always gets mentioned

Course he comes across as a 'great guy' in his interviews!!! He's an actor! 🙄

Not every actor does!

Think what you like rolly eyes.

on a lighter note Jamie Foxx though

Definite upgrade!

Django is in my top ten films of all time, but I do quite like war of the worlds too.
Does anybody remember when Oprah got a backie on Tom's motorbike? Did I dream that? It sounds like a weird dream doesn't it?

Oh yeah it happened maud

He is a little man though. That's a matter of fact.

Obviously his height isn't the reason he's a small minded bampot.
