Today, Tom Cruise metaphorically steps down from Oprah's couch.

People is reporting that the actor and his wife of five years, Katie Holmes, have announced that they are ending their marriage. The former couple has a six-year-old daughter together, Suri.

The only official word on the impending divorce comes from Jonathan Wolfe, Holme's attorney.

"This is a personal and private matter for Katie and her family," Wolfe said. "Katie's primary concern remains, as it always has been, her daughter's best interest."

Cruise and Holmes married in November of 2006, shortly after the birth of Suri, their only child together.

It had been Cruise's third marriage. He was previously married to Mimi Rogers from 1987 to 1990 and then Nicole Kidman from 1990 to 2001. Cruise was Holme's first husband.
