Katie Holmes felt like she was in ‘Rosemary’s Baby’ with Tom Cruise (LOL)

Katie Holmes Tom Cruise

Over the weekend, the news broke that Katie Holmes was divorcing Tom Cruise to take Suri away from Scientology, and Kaiser covered this morning’s story about how Katie was living in fear that Tom would give Suri to the Sea Org. This goes along with our story from last year that Suri was on the brink of a demanding CO$ upbringing. I think it was perfectly reasonable for Katie to fear such a fate for Suri, but I think the tabloids might be exaggerating just a bit on whether Tom would truly go there. I mean, I can’t stand the guy either and think he’s a puppet for a very evil cult, but he wouldn’t do that to Suri. Or to himself.

For those of you unfamiliar with the Sea Org, it was founded as part of the CO$ by L. Ron Hubbard as a ship-based group of his own personal assistants. Mostly, these young kids were signed over by their CO$ parents for a billion years of servitude (yes, seriously), and they spent their teen years acting as messengers and cabana boy/girls to Hubbard. These days, the Sea Org is landbound and exists largely at Gold Base in Gilman Hot Springs, CA. Children (and adults) who belong to the Org miss out on both school and all but a few hours of sleep in order to help “clear the planet,” which sounds like a noble purpose for the brainwashed, but they’re really just performing manual labor. As I’ve stated before, I don’t think Tom would place Suri into such a physically rough life, not only because they’ve taken such care to spoil her already but also because Suri is a PR asset to Tom, so she must remain visible to the public for all of his movie-related photo ops. Or at least, that was his plan.

Anyway, there’s a new TomKat divorce story from Us Weekly that I do believe in full, which is that Katie felt like she was in the midst of Rosemary’s Baby, which is (of course) the classic Roman Polanski horror movie where Mia Farrow gives birth to a child for a Satanic Cult. LOL.

Mia Farrow

Oddly enough, Tom once told Oprah Winfrey (during their second interview, not the couch jumping one) that he was very aware that people compared his marriage to Rosemary’s Baby, and he was very hurt and upset by the rumors. Now here’s how Katie felt about it all according to Us Weekly:

Mia Farrow

Katie Holmes’ Hollywood fairy tale with Tom Cruise definitely did not have a happy ending.

When the 33-year-old actress filed for divorce from Cruise, 49, last Thursday — aggressively moving for sole legal custody of daughter Suri, 6 — it was the culmination of a year-long attempt to break free of a confining, Scientology-influenced marriage to Cruise, sources tell the new Us Weekly, out now.

“Every move she made and everything she did was controlled . . . She felt like she was in Rosemary’s Baby,” says one insider, referring to the classic 1968 horror film, in which an aspiring young actress (Mia Farrow) unwittingly bears a child for her husband’s Satanic cult.

“This is about protecting her daughter,” the insider explains to Us. “She wants to be in charge of how Suri is being raised and didn’t want her to have an exclusively Scientology education.”

The first source puts it more bluntly: “She felt she had to get out to save her daughter.”

[From Us Weekly]

Meanwhile, People has put out their cover issue early with a very pro-Katie (and anti-Scientology) stance. Surely, we’ll have some more excerpts coming soon, but for now, the cover tells us that her parents “wanted old Katie back,” and the magazine has let slip that Tom is “totally devastated and heartbroken.” Or at least, that’s how Tom’s camp has framed the issue.

    He put his other kids in deep, so of course, Suri would as well. She’s an asset, but he always controlled how she was seen and if he needed her to disappear for school, she would disappear. I can see why Katie would balk. If he didn’t insist on putting her in a straight-up Sci school, then she most likely would’ve stayed.

    People who say Tom is gay and/or these are just contract marriages seem more insane than Tom to me. Even Nicole has said it was a true marriage and the woman was in a deep depression for years losing him. She always said she never thought she would find love again. She loved Tom deeply. She did have the children half custody for years until they hit tween/teens. I think it was three months on and three months off and they would take movie roles around their time with the children. And she began working more and then moved to Tennessee. Probably Scientology played a role later as they grew older, but I blame her also for moving away from her children and working all the time. But she didn’t divorce and lose her children right then outright at all. People think Tom and Nicole divorced because of Scientology. That just isn’t true. He had been out of Scientology for two years and during the divorce is when Scientology seized their chance and lured him back in and that’s when he became obssessive with it. I think maybe Nicole cheated once and his ego couldn’t handle it and/or her career was taking off (and I think Tom likes him women close by supporting his career) and/or he had his eye on Penelope. I guess we’ll never know.

    Here’s a good article by a high-up in the group who defected but worked with Tom during his divorce from Nicole.

      Divorce is sad. I see Tom getting Suri one-third of the time and Katie two-thirds of the time, which Katie would be fine with as long as she goes to school and isn’t homeschooled by Scientology prinicples. Probably not only just fear of Scientology but another reason for staying longer is these days men get half custody of their children. I cannot imagine giving up my little girl fifty percent of the time. I would just die. Scientology or not, Katie wouldn’t want to lose Suri six months out of the year averaged out. Maybe now when Suri is calling another woman mommy on visits to daddy she will see how Nicole felt when she bragged in an interview the kids call her mom.

    This marriage changed Katie Holmes’ for the worse in that it opened her up to be judged and disliked whereas she was just another WB/CW actress with one-hit-wonder success on Dawson’s Creek. If you didn’t like her heavy legs and pretentious speaking manner, you didn’t tune in. She definitely made more money divorcing Tom Cruise than as a scandal-free post-Dawson actress. In hindsight, she may feel that financially, she came out ahead but her marriage prospects like Heidi Klum’s are permanently damaged. She’s not Chris Klein’s ex open to dating a businessman or costar, she’s Tom Cruise’s ex and she has deep long stretch mark gashes from Suri that she showed off shortly after birth.

      Katie has changed..she is richer, had plastic surgery, hair extensions. Greedy young woman–anyone could see how much he destroyed Nicole. KH saw the pot of gold and dove in. Then TC tried to drown her with his freaky cult & control both Katie & Suri. We all know that Tom was purposefully trying to find a young wife..Scarlett & Jessica Alba turned Tommy down–Katie was literally TC`s last choice. I will not miss Kates sly smirk, chunky man legs, or her terrible acting. Robo-goldigger`s rein is coming to an end.

    • LeeLoo says:

      Many times, if you ever read stories about domestic violence, the victims will say that the relationship moved very fast and that their partner was so loving and attentive in the early phases. Sure she probably knew he was a scientologist but I doubt she fully understood what that meant. She was “lovebombed.” To me, it sounds like they did a good job of brainwashing her because normally one of the first cult tactics is to deprive someone of sleep to cloud her judgement. With all of the private jet rides, dates around the world, I doubt she even slept much and likely signed any contract they made her sign in not a sound mind in the first year. While I do feel Katie does hold some responsibility, I also don’t feel it is right to underestimate the power of an emotionally abusive partner especially when that power is combined with a cult like Co$.

  32. LeeLoo says:

    If People magazine is against Tom he is screwed to the maximum. Tom is going to have to make a choice: whether he loves his PR image or if he loves Co$ more. Mark my words: if he fights Katie on custody of Suri his public image will be ruined forever and chances are even if he doesn’t fight Katie enough information will be revealed to ruin his public image. He may win in the courtroom if he tries hard but he will lose all respect and credibility with the public.

    If he truly loved his daughter or any of his kids for that matter, he would walk away from Co$. I think it’s funny, Tom used to talk about his abusive father when he was younger but now it seems he has turned out just like him. No matter what happens, I will never respect Tom Cruise again.

      I hear you on Tom’s image possibly being ruined, but I’m not sure that will happen. The public is mighty forgiving when it comes to celebs, whether they’re actors, musicians, sports stars or politicians. Short of committing murder, I’m not sure anything Tom does will completely ruin him. I could very well be wrong though!

      • LeeLoo says:

        The public is forgiving to a point. But there is no way in a media sense he can come out on top, especially when Katie has been set up as this loving doting mom (which I believe she is) and then to try and take that child away? It will be unforgivable especially when he does it in the same way he did it to Nicole. There has always been talk about Tom being a phony. I get the feeling in the coming years Hollywood will be forced to distance themselves from Co$ once more and more light is shed on their practices and unless Tom renounces them he will be blackballed.

        Sorry LeeLoo but as long as people will pay money to see Tom, people will hire Tom to be seen. No matter what he’s done. There is no longer such a thing as being “black listed”. The way to keep yourself from getting hired is to not make money for the people hiring you. Short of that, these producer types really really do not care at all. You could set puppies and babies on fire all day long and as long as people still pay to see you there will be a role for you in the next Mission Impossible movie.

    I know for the moment the case hinges on whether New York has jurisdiction-i.e can Katie be qualified as a resident of New York. I believe the requirement is one year, but there is probably some discretion of the part of the NY judge to determine what is “close enough” to residency.
    Also, from a court PR standpoint (there ARE other kinds of PR), Tom should get on the next plane from Iceland and get his a– back to New York. Jurisdiction-NY or the default, Cruise’s counter-filing in California-will likely to be decided in the next couple weeks (court will adjourn on the 4th, of course.)
    His lawyers will appear, of course, but his failure to personally appear may not sit well with the NY Family Court judge.
    You know Katie will be there with her attorneys, and with her family. Kudos to her dad, God bless him-don’t you love a dad who can deftly bail his daughter out of a mess!
    Team Katie, all the way!
    PS: Don’t expect Kidman to appear. It is not in her best interest to do it voluntarily and subpoena power for civil cases typically does not stretch from NY to Tennessee.

    Why isn’t the police investigating such servitude and lack of decent upbringing of these children?

    Even if their parents gave their consent, shouldn’t there be anyone from the State of California or federal agents/ social workers that should be concerned for the well being of these children? lack of adequate sleep and hardly any education, not to mention making them work and provide services…

    On a different note, I want to see the judge that will not choose the benefit of the child (Suri) and will expose her to such creepy influence.
    Srsly!
    No judge will take a child from her mother, and in this case, I would like to see if anyone would allow Tom to expose Suri to his odd choices of association.

      1) The potential for Co$ to turn into a Jonestown or Waco situation. The US government learned lessons from these situations. This has to be handled with care and discretion.

      2) If the rumors are true, the Co$ has information to blackmail federal and state officials. Which has kept them from any real official scrutiny. However, I do sincerely believe that the justice department has an investigation going on very quietly.

We may need to show some sort of solidarity to this poor woman as the Co$ prepares a cobra like strike against her that we all know is coming. She prob had to decide whether the public knowledge of all of her secrets is worth running to save your child and she decided the child is more worth it.

    I’m Team Katie but I don’t think Rosemary’s Baby is an apt comparison.

    Rosemary was very young and naive and did not cooperate in any way. Her husband changed after they were married and sold his soul to the devil for an acting career. She had no idea her husband had become a satanist.

    Tom Cruise is pretty much the same Tom Cruise she married. He did not hide his Scientology beliefs. Some believe that she married Tom for her acting career – perhaps in theory selling HER soul to the devil.

    I believe if Katie was blind and naive, it was selectively. Regardless, she has seen the light now and Suri will have a better life. (Unfortunately, Katie was complicit in alienating Connor and Bella from Nicole. I am extremely curious how those two now feel about Katie.)
