Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes sign divorce settlement

TomKat is over.

Well, that was fast.

The lawyer for Katie Holmes has reported that she and soon-to-be ex-husband Tom Cruise have reached a settlement in their divorce.

The details of that settlement are under wraps, though a statement released by the couple today makes it clear that their 6-year-old daughter, Suri, was the top priority.

“We are committed to working together as parents to accomplishing what is in our daughter Suri’s best interests,” the statement said, according to CNN. “We want to keep matters affecting our family private and express our respect for each other’s commitment to each of our respective beliefs and support each other’s roles as parents.”

The settlement comes just 10 days after news broke that Katie Holmes, 33, filed for divorce. There have been reports that the couple was divided over the 55-year-old Cruise’s Scientology beliefs and his desire to raise Suri in the church.
 
“We are thrilled for Katie and her family and are excited to watch as she embarks on the next chapter of her life,” Holmes’ attorney Jonathan Wolfe said.

Great. So what are we supposed to talk about now?
