Details about the disturbing end to former Hollywood Golden couple Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's marriage have resurfaced amid reports the Scientologist actor has banned his ex from attending their son's wedding.
It was reported the Aussie actress had 'begged' Tom not to leave when he suddenly ended their marriage without warning on 4 February 2001 and announced their separation publicly the following day.
Divorce papers at the time said Nicole "protested [Cruise's] intention to dissolve their marriage and urged him not to leave but to enter marriage counselling with her, or take other steps to address whatever problems may have existed in their marriage... Tom said his decision was final and he departed the parties' home."
The pair were married for 11 years between December 1990 and August 2001.
Shortly before the end of their marriage, Nicole endured a miscarriage.
"It was an incredibly traumatic time for me," Nicole previously said of the experience in an interview with Marie Claire.
It was the second time she'd lost a baby with Tom, after suffering an ectopic pregnancy in 1990 at the age of 23.
"From the minute Tom and I were married, I wanted to have babies," said Nicole.

The couple went on to adopt two children - Connor and Isabella - who Tom, 56, regained full custody of after the divorce.
This week it was alleged that Tom has banned Nicole from attending son Connor's upcoming wedding.
Connor, now 24, is set to tie the knot with his Italian girlfriend in a Scientologist ceremony.
A source told Radar how the Mission Impossible actor has demanded Nicole, 51, is not included on the guestlist for the big day.

"Tom is behind this and what he wants is as good as law.
"Tom made the call and Connor followed," they said.
In an interview with Who magazine last year, Nicole maintained that she is on good terms with both Connor and Isabella.
"I’m very private about all that. I have to protect all those relationships.
"They are able to make their own decisions. They have made choices to be Scientologists and as a mother, it’s my job to love them," she said.
Nicole also didnt attend daughter Isabella's wedding to Max Parker in 2015, while her daughter was not at her gradather Antony Kidman's funeral in 2014.
Nicole is now married to Country singer Keith Urban with whom she shares daughters Sunday, 10, and Faith, 10.
