Tom Cruise has admitted he "didn't expect" Katie Holmes to file for divorce last June.
The Oblivion star - who shares six-year-old daughter Suri with his 34-year-old ex-wife - was completely shocked when the actress decided to end their marriage after six years together and found it a challenge to move on with his life.
"I didn't expect it. Life is a tragicomedy. You need to have a sense of humor. I had an unbelievable amount of time to think about it. Life is a challenge," he said recently.
The three-times divorced actor added that he didn't expect to be single at his age but said that it has helped him to put things in perspective. "To be 50 and to have experiences and to think, you have a grip on everything, and then it hits you: This is it, what life can do to you,'" he explained.

After being told his friends made a bet on how long his wedded bliss would last, which caused Noel to erupt with laughter, Russell exclaimed, "Don't cackle, I tried my hardest. How come you know exactly how long my marriage was. Was you timing it?" Noel responded, "For the record, in the sweepstake I came the closest."
Russell then continued to give humorous marital advice, making gags about his relationship with Katy, with whom he tied the knot in a traditional Hindu ceremony in India in October 2010 and filed for divorce from in December 2011. "Thanks, nice to know you're all behind me, very supportive, nice to know you're all supporting me. Let me tell you a thing about marriage. Marriage is a bond that can last up to 14 months. This is a sacred 14-month arrangement. Begins on an elephant. Ends in a newspaper," he joked.

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries faked their televised marriage proposal.
The former couple - who have been fighting about how to legally end their 72-day marriage since October 2011 - re-shot scenes of the 28-year-old basketball player popping the question to the reality TV star because she didn't like how she looked during his original proposal, according to a deposition given by Russell Jay, who is producer on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, ahead of their divorce trial.
According to a transcript of the deposition - obtained by Life & Style magazine - Kim was "completely surprise"' by Kris' first proposal and asked for the scene to be filmed again because "she didn't like how her face looked in the first take."
Russell also claimed that a scene where Kim confessed to her mother, Kris Jenner, that she was having trouble in her marriage was actually shot after she filed for divorce, and that another scene which saw the then-couple argue after Kris had a hotel party with girls while Kim was supposed to be out of town was also "faked" and that she was actually present the entire time.

Demi Moore Thinks a Baby Would Have Saved Her Marriage
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Divorce, Rumors,
Demi Moore thinks that a baby would have saved her marriage to Ashton Kutcher.
The 50-year-old actress is still heartbroken over her split from the Two and a Half Men actor and is reportedly convinced having a child with the 35-year-old hunk would have stopped him from cheating.
"Ashton wanted a child from day one, and Demi knew he would make an amazing father after seeing how great he was with her girls. Sadly though, time wasn't on Demi's side, and she was never able to fulfill his baby wish. Demi believes in her heart that if they had had a child together, there wouldn't be a divorce going on right now. She thinks if there had been a baby at home Ashton wouldn't have been out partying with friends, and he wouldn't have had the chance to cheat on her," a source said.
Demi is now seeking spousal support from Ashton - who is currently dating Oz the Great and Powerful actress Mila Kunis - and the brunette beauty has filed papers demanding a large financial settlement, 16 months after their separation in 2011.

Sharon Stone: It’s Easy to Blame Arnold Schwarzenegger for Affair
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Divorce, Features,
Sharon Stone thinks that it is "easy" to only blame Arnold Schwarzenegger for his affair.
The Lovelace actress is good friends with the action movie icon, and feels he cannot be solely held responsible after he had an affair - and fathered love child Joseph, 15 - with their housekeeper Mildred Baena while still with his ex-wife Maria Shriver.
"Whatever happened in their [Arnold and Maria's] home was happening with both of them. It's a terrible thing - and it's easy to say 'Oh, it's just something that he did,' but this took place in their home, over a decade. It happened with both of them," she said.
Despite this, Sharon did reveal she was "disappointed" with the revelation of the Last Stand star's affair: "I have a very frank relationship with Arnold. Was I disappointed? Who wasn't? Nobody is excited when people betray themselves and their families. No one goes, 'Yay, good for you.'"

There will be no divorce and all of us will remain together as a family.'"
The Oxygen reality star went on to write about the strength of her marriage:
"It's just sad that our actual happiness would probably be deemed boring... I can handle [the public scrutiny]. I always have.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Sports, Television, Divorce, Pregnancies,
Kim Kardashian's divorce trial has been set for May 6.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star split from basketball player Kris Humphries in November 2011 after just 72 days of marriage but they have so far failed to dissolve their union amicably, and while Kim wanted a trial next month because of her pregnancy, the trial will begin in May, according to TMZ.
Kim is expecting her first child with rapper boyfriend Kanye West and is reportedly worried that the drawn out divorce could have "long-term effects" on her baby. The 32-year-old beauty was treated for severe abdominal pains recently, after her doctor rushed to her home in the middle of the night to examine her and warned her to reduce her stress levels.
Kim's mother and manager Kris Jenner also confirmed she has been told to relax: "Kim has been going through this divorce for months. She has been under a lot of stress because of it and the doctors told her she had a really tough week and the stress could become a problem if she isn't careful."
