So naturally, when the news of this couple splitting up spread, not just fans but even their fellow celebrities were left utterly shocked. One such celeb included Jennifer Lopez, who herself was going through a breakup at that time.

Jennifer Lopez was Shocked by Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ Split

The breakup news of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, who were together for nearly seven years, had left the American actress-singer truly devastated. This goes back to the time when Jennifer Lopez herself had recently undergone a divorce from Marc Anthony.

Talking about her split as well as how sad the Katie-Tom split news made her, the then-42-year-old actress said,

“I’m sad for them. They’re both really lovely people and just like Marc and I, it’s not what you want to happen. You fight and you try until you realize you can’t anymore.”

Continuing, Lopez expressed her concern about Cruise and Holmes’ daughter, Suri Cruise, who was primarily in the custody of Holmes. She felt that the most important thing for the split couple was to focus on their daughter and ensure that their personal relations do not affect Suri’s life in any way.
