“We are committed to working together as parents to accomplishing what is in our daughter Suri’s best interests. We want to keep matters affecting our family private and express our respect for each other’s commitment to each of our respective beliefs and support each other’s roles as parents,” the couple said in a statement to JustJared.com via their reps.

Go Suri, go! You can do it! One more step…yes!! You see? You can walk!!
What Tom ment to say was that Scientology is suffering bc of this and he needs to make it go away as soon as possible. Katie sure played her cards right. Good for her but I hope she doesn’t let him bully her.
please there be a katie and pacay moments soon.
poor(rich) little suri
adorable kid.
pretty
Are they not divorced, yet??? lol! I’m ready for it to go away. Hope TC gets custody of those tacky suede ankle boots that Katie wears constantly! He needs them worse than she does.
I love reading this , So does My boyfriend .he is almost 11year older than me .i met him via Wealt’hybar.c’om a nice place for seeking rich men.which gives you a chance to make your life better and open opportunities for you to meet the attractive young girls and treat you like a king. Maybe you wanna check it out or tell your friends..
vdd
Private? Katie’s people has managed to keep all of this open to the public. I’m sorry but she knew where he stood about his religion before they got married so I don’t pity her that much. Even though I don’t agree with his religion, I also don’t persecute him for it it because we all have our own beliefs. There’s something about katie that still seems immature to me. Even AFTER she filed for divorce she still hangs around with a 6 year. What happend to going out with your girlfriends and not parading this child around town everyday in front of paparazzi?

You don’t know what the hell you are talking about. Manhater.

They are not divorcing because Tom is a Scientologist. The marriage just did not work, just like millions of marriages in this country.
Oh, no. Suri brought the blanket to the museum??? The other kids will laugh at her. K really needs to put an end to the blankie thing for Suri’s sake.
@arlyssa:
It’s not a “religion”. It’s a cult.
Katie will let him save face but Tom won’t be in her life anymore beyond preapproved photo ops because in the end its not really his kid.
@Jean:
Hmmmm maybe you should talk to Katie’s camp about that. I think they are playing the media in another direction :-)
that statement was such a mistake on Tom’s part. it sounds like his voice, and sounds like he’s trying to control her again. the press and public will eat that up and it will play further into Katies hand. I have a whole new respect for Katie and her ugly boots now!

How much you wanna bet she is still on the baby bottle? Just a few months ago she was photographed with a baby bottle.
Joint statement? sounds like joint custody to me.
She should try protect that kid from the paps. Poor little girl, photographed every darn day
did they go with a TAXI?

She married him knowing he is a Scientologist, and they did not divorce because of it. 60% of marriages do not last. Get it?
@CF98: #12
Tom is the one who let Katie save face, by letting her file first.

How sick are you. You have a whole new respect for her because she is a divorcee? So she had to be a divorcee to get respect. SICK!
Thank goodness they settled!! I wasn’t looking forward to seeing this battle play out in the media for the next year. Everyone, MOVE ON.
Oh, and one more thing . . .just because she is divorcing Tom, don’t expect Katie to become a better mother. Taking Suri out to late night dinners, carrying her all the time, not properly dressing her for outings, and eating ice cream daily have NOTHING to do with Tom. She made all of those parenting decisions on her own, when Tom was thousands of miles away. Regardless of the control her had over her, there’s no way he could control whether she carries Suri or let’s her walk.
One day…just give me one day with Suri. It’s called DISCIPLINE!!!!
@deb:
In regular divorces, the parts do not usually put that statement about Respecting “beliefs”. Tha alone tells me that scientology does play an obscure part in this.
I do think NK’s children were alienated from her. Time will tell us with Suri. I hope she and her mother stay close.
