Famous Scientology Couples

2. TOM CRUISE AND KATIE HOLMES

These actors were by far the best-known Scientologist couple before their split in 2012. Cruise was introduced to Scientology by ex-wife Mimi Rogers and credits the religion for curing his dyslexia. Cruise's second wife, Nicole Kidman, had their Scientology marriage annulled so that she could remarry in the Catholic Church. In 2005, Cruise criticized actress Brooke Shields for taking antidepressants to deal with post-partum depression. He helped to establish a facility in New York City that used Scientology principles to help 9/11 rescue workers who had been exposed to toxic chemicals. On Nov. 18, Cruise and Holmes were married in a Scientology ceremony in Italy with David Miscavige, head of the Church of Scientology, as best man. The couple has an infant daughter, Suri. They divorced in 2012 with Scientology cited as part of the reason.

Bell, an actor best known for her role on the TV show "JAG," and Beason got married in 1994. In addition to acting, Bell is involved with many Scientology charities, including the Hollywood Education and Literacy Project (HELP).

During an appearance on Howard Stern's radio show, Bell defended Scientology, claiming that the religion has made her a better actress and a more confident person. Beason, who is also an actor, keeps a low profile in the press. The couple has a daughter, Gemma.
