The Tom Cruise Wife Casting Couch (with Claire Lim)
About this episode
The episode explores the influence of the Church of Scientology on Tom Cruise's relationships and public persona.
When Tom Cruise jumped on Oprah’s couch and declared “I’m in love!” he may as well have been playing one of the high octane characters that has made him a super star since the ‘80s. Was the Church of Scientology a driving force in Cruise’s marriage to Holmes? Was it part of why he divorced Nicole Kidman? Joining Tess on an illicit trip to the Celebrity Centre is Calie Lim (@weeclairehere)
