Rogers: 'Cruise's proposal to me was less romantic'
Actress Mimi Rogers was surprised her ex-husband Tom Cruise proposed to his fiancee Katie Holmes at the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris because he wasn't so romantic when he asked her to marry him.
Rogers, who was the actor's first wife in the 1980s before he married and subsequently divorced Nicole Kidman, remembers the moment Cruise suggested she become his wife as being nothing out of the ordinary.
She says: "He's always been a very intense guy who is openly passionate about some things. But we didn't go through that very public courtship stage.
"He proposed to Katie while they were up the Eiffel Tower, but with me he didn't do anything dashing, like going down on one knee. It just, well, it just sort of happened."
