Is Tom Cruise married?
Tom is believed to be currently single.
The actor's first marriage was to actress Mimi Rogers.
However, it was short-lived as they divorced after three years.
Rogers introduced Tom to the Church of Scientology for the first time - and he remains a devoted follower and the religion's most famous member.
He then met Nicole Kidman in 1990, and they were married for 11 years before he filed for divorce.
They adopted two children together but did not have any of their own.
After that marriage, Tom met actress Katie Holmes in 2005 and had a whirlwind engagement, before daughter Suri was born in April 2006.
Their intense romance captured the public imagination and became a meme when Tom famously declared his love for Katie just a month after their first date on The Oprah Winfrey Show, jumping up and down on her couch.

But Katie ended the marriage in 2012 citing "irreconcilable differences."
Sources said Katie was "terrified" at the thought of Suri, then six, being brought up and educated as a Scientologist.
Since the divorce Katie has taken primary care of Suri, who looks more like her mom every day.
Suri reportedly did not see dad Tom for three whole years between 2013-2016 after the dramatic split, but the exes seem to be patching things up and Tom and Suri are spending time together again.
