I know that sometimes parents really cant stand each other and thats ok but you need to keep that between yourself and leave the childre out of it.

What an awful thing for any parent to go through.

Such a pity that Nicole and Tom Cruise were ever a couple – his sect and he beliefs were never going to be aligned. The horrible part is that the two adopted children have to bein the limelight over this.

I have never liked Tom Cruise. He is just displaying more of his controlling attitude and behaviour here and disrespectful manner.

Not that I am a huge fan of Nicole Kidman, but Tom cruise has lost the plot since joining what sounds like a cult! The decision of whom should go or not go to their childrens wedding should soley rely on the children themselves. totally discusted on reading this news!

I think Tom is such an a**hole. I’m sure Nicole wouldn’t do anything to ruin her child’s wedding. You can’t shut off the love you have for your children. I think Tom has probably done his best to turn their children against Nicole.

I’m surprised their son didn’t speak up and invite her. I’d be livid if it was me and one if my parents banned the other from attending my own wedding and it should be him having the final say, not his dad.. That cult brainwashed its members.

This is what happens in a cult – it is all about control. She didn’t let him control her in the end – good on her for getting out but sad that she couldn’t bring her children.

how dare any parent ban another parent from their childs wedding or any other event
Tom Cruise is being manipulative nasty and extremely childish and hurting his children and their mother in the process of just wanting to get his own way and keep control over everyone
this is disgusting behaviour on his part and has been done with no real care or love for his children and their wellbeing
regardless of how he feels about Nicole or anyone else he has absolutely NO RIGHT to behave in this manner
After all its his childrens special day not his and they should have the right to choose guests at their own wedding
think its definitely way past time Tom Cruise grew up and stopped being so childish

Tom is wrong on so many levels that have clearly been demonstrated with the ending of two marriages due to Scientology. Unfortunately, he has a stranglehold on his two eldest children. I really feel for Nicole.

No one should be excluded from their child’s wedding unless ther child wishes it to be that way.

Watch the documentary “Scientology the aftermath” (currently showing on Vice or SBS on demand) and you will understand why she is not allowed to her children’s weddings. It is very complex but basically anyone involved with Scientology shun any family members who are not. It would not be Nicoles choice not to attend.

I watch ‘TopGun’ and I think, what the heck went wrong with this guy….
I’ve never understood Scientology so cant say why they can’t all just let it go and get along but it’s obviously a personal family issue

Yes Tom is wrong, but in the end it’s Connors decision as he is an adult.

Such a sad strange family dynamic. Tom keeps Nicole away from the kids,yet he has no contact with Suki for years.

very sad but from what I have read about scientology they really don’t make their own decisions, though they are adults the church (and their father) really do seem to control their lives and decisions

It doesn’t matter what we think, it is their family stuff so we don’t need to comment.

It sounds like she is already estranged from the kids, as it says Nicole has been forced to keep her distance from them. The whole thing is utterly sad. The children should have had a say. It’s the guys wedding so it really shouldn’t be up to Tom! But it sounds like he has been controlling them from a young age

Tom needs to grow up. It’s family over religion in my terms.
I would wonder what would happen if anything happens to Nicole, would the children come and visit or is beyond their religion to do so?
I’m glad Katie took her daughter out.

I do hope the kids are making the decisions about their own weddings.
