 Cruise and Holmes announced their engagement in June 2005.Scientologist spokesperson Karen Pouw stated that as part of their nuptial vows, "they won't go to sleep at night without having repaired any upset they may have had during the day,".In 2008, Louisa Hodkin and then fiancé Alessandro Calcioli were denied the right to marry in a Church of Scientology chapel in London due to a 1970 High Court ruling that said that “Scientology services were not ‘acts of worship.’" Hodkin initiated legal action, and after a five-year battle, in December 2013, five Supreme Court judges ruled that the church was “a place of meeting for religious worship.” In early 2014, Hodkin and Calcioli wed in the Scientology chapel in Blackfriars, London, and Hodkin expressed pride in the victory, which she felt put an end to inequality for people of all faiths.
