In 2010, Holmes gushed over her husband, as she expressed to Marie Claire how her marriage was “really fun.”
“It’s an amazing life, but we always remind ourselves of how incredibly lucky we are,” Holmes — who welcomed her and Cruise’s daughter, Suri, 17, in 2006, the same year they tied the knot — explained.
Though the couple couldn’t make things work, and would ultimately divorce in 2012, Holmes confirmed she has no regrets.
“I never really look back. I just approach life [taking] it one day at a time,” the Batman Begins actress, 44, dished to Today in 2014 in regard to her divorce. “I’m really excited about where I am right now. I’ve had some really wonderful creative experiences. I’m just really grateful.”
While Holmes doesn’t frequently reflect on her failed marriage, she most recently opened up about “that time” in 2012, which she found to be rather “intense.”
“It was a lot of attention, and I had a little child on top of it. We had some funny moments out and about in public. So many people I didn’t know became my friends and helped us out, and that’s what I love about the city,” Holmes stated during an interview with InStyle in July 2022. The Alone Together star and her daughter moved to New York City shortly after the duo’s divorce.
