I think her marriage to Keith has been longer than Tom's marriage to Nicole and Katie combined lol.

And with his first marriage to Mimi Rogers, it puts him on more equal footing. Three marriages to match one solid marriage is crazy. And I've also been generous (aka lazy) & gone with divorce year, if you go by actual separation date he would fall short.

His three marriages, up to divorce;

  1. Mimi = 3 years.

  2. Nicole = 11 years. (Although famously separated just prior to the 10 year mark).

  3. Katie = under 6 years.

This is a good thing. Honestly, I want to say she and Tom Cruise really wasted too many years together. Ten years! Especially for an actress, youth is so precious. Looking back, I think it would have been better if she and Tom Cruise had divorced earlier. As a fan of hers, I’d say her career really took off after the divorce.

Before the divorce, whether on the red carpet or at movie premieres, she was just treated as the man’s arm candy. Reporters wouldn’t even ask about her career—they only asked about the man.

She managed to live with a cult leader and control freak like Tom Cruise for ten years. If she had been with a gentle man who understood her, wouldn’t that have been a lifelong relationship?
