The pair married in a lavish ceremony in Italy in November 2006 after meeting in April 2005.
Daughter Suri was born in April 2006 and played a star role in their nuptials.
Katie and Suri will be living in New York while Tom will split his time between there and Los Angeles.
The 50-year-old star - who was previously married to Mimi Rogers and Nicole Kidman - has two children, Isabella, 19, and 17-year-old Connor, with Nicole and they are based in Beverly Hills.
