Katie Holmes’ parents are reportedly refusing to attend her wedding to fiancé Tom Cruise. The Top Gun actor plans to marry the Batman Begins actress, the mother of his daughter Suri, in a Scientology ceremony in late July or early August.

However, Katie’s devoutly Catholic parents, Martin and Kathleen, will not attend the nuptials because they do not approve of Tom’s devotion to the bizarre sci-fi cult.

The ceremony will allegedly be conducted by Scientology leader David Miscavige. A family friend revealed to America’s Life and Style magazine that Katie’s mum and dad “are not happy” with their daughter’s choice of where to marry.

It is also claimed that the former Dawson’s Creek star had hoped to have a separate Catholic wedding to appease her angry parents but Tom is not willing to compromise.

According to the source, Martin Holmes allegedly said: “If Katie can have a proper Catholic wedding her whole family will gladly be a part of.” Since she began dating Tom, Katie has become heavily involved in Scientology, and is reputedly planning to convert from Catholicism to the ‘religion’.
