Tom Cruise Files for Divorce

February 7 -- Tom Cruise filed for divorce today from his wife of more than 10 years, Nicole Kidman, dashing fans' hopes that the glamorous couple might reconcile.

The couple, who co-starred in Eyes Wide Shut and other films, shocked fans and the media alike in announcing their separation Monday.

Ironically, Cruise, 38, and Kidman, 33, had just renewed their marriage vows Dec. 24, which was their 10-year anniversary, US Weekly reveals in an upcoming issue.

A spokeswoman declined to give further details of the divorce action filed today in Los Angeles Superior Court, but according to Access Hollywood, the Mission: Impossible actor is citing irreconcilable differences and is seeking joint custody of the couple's two adopted children.

Even their publicist, Pat Kingsley, is shaken, telling the New York Daily News, "It blew me away. I had come to think of Tom and Nicole as the Holy Grail of marriages. I'm very sad about this."

Clooney Rumor 'Ridiculous,' Says RepThe official reason given Monday for the pair's split was conflicting work schedules, but already tabloids are searching for a third party to blame in the bust-up.

George Clooney's publicist, Stan Rosenfield, is fuming that his client has been looped into the proceedings. Yes, Clooney co-starred with Kidman in 1997's The Peacemaker, and yes, she presented him with his Golden Globe Award last month, but that, Rosenfield tells Mr. Showbiz, is that. Sniffing at a story in the New York tabs, Rosenfield says, "An overzealous reporter had hair up his ass and printed something totally without foundation. [Clooney and Kidman] hadn't seen each other in two years [before the Globes]. It's too ridiculous."

Reportedly, Cruise and Kidman chose to announce their split now to beat a story in the works at The National Enquirer. The tabloid's editor-in-chief, Steve Coz, hinted cryptically to British Web site Empire that the article claims there's "more than one reason" — whatever that means — for the dissolution of one of Hollywood's most famous marriages.
