Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are getting a divorce.

The Rock of Ages star and his actress wife - who have been married for five years - have confirmed they have split, with Katie's attorney Jonathan Wolfe saying she wants to do what is best for their six-year-old daughter Suri. "This is a personal and private matter for Katie and her family. Katie's primary concern remains, as it always has been, her daughter's best interest," he said.

It is not known if divorce papers have yet been filed in court.
