Celebrity Weight Loss After Divorce

It's not uncommon for celebrities to lose weight for movie roles, but they also tend to shed pounds for a more stressful reason -- divorce.

Both celebs and non-famous folks alike unintentionally find themselves on the "divorce diet" after a split, dropping weight from the sheer stress of untying the knot. Click through the slideshow below for celebs who lost weight after divorce, then weigh in: Did this happen to you?

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes called it quits in June 2012 after five years of marriage. Their divorce was finalized in record time -- less than two months after they announced their split. Since they parted ways, Cruise has reportedly dropped 15 pounds (photos here). As an unnamed source told gossip mag Grazia in August, "his way of dealing with this is to throw himself into his work, but as a result he's not looking after himself, and he risks cutting himself off from people who care about him and want to make sure he's OK."

LeAnn Rimes and Dean Sheremet, her husband of nearly eight years, separated in 2009 amid reports that Rimes was having an affair with her Lifetime movie co-star (and now-husband) Eddie Cibrian. The divorce was finalized in June 2010. Rimes was photographed looking noticeably thinner in March 2011. The singer opened up about her weight loss in October of that year, telling the Associated Press, "You know, I went through all I've gone through in the last few years and I was going through a divorce and I couldn't get out of bed, and so I gained 10 pounds and then I lost 10 pounds because now I'm moving around and I'm working and you know, I don't stop and no one sees that [weight loss] actually can happen like naturally. It's a natural progression of life."

Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli parted ways in March 2012 after 11 years of marriage. After the split, Garth reportedly lost 20 pounds (photos here). "I've been certainly going through a transitional time in my life," she told Canada's Entertainment Tonight in August. "And I think anybody who has been through something like what I'm going through and have been going through for the past couple years, can definitely relate that your body changes with your emotional state of mind sometimes. I think a lot of women can relate to that."

Demi Moore filed for divorce from Ashton Kutcher in November 2011 after rumors of his infidelity surfaced. The pair married in 2005. As their union neared its final days, Moore reportedly dropped a ton of weight. By the spring of 2012, nutritionist and author of "The Hamptons Diet," Dr. Fred Pescatore, told Radar Online that he believed the 5'5'' actress weighed as little as 100 pounds.

After three years of marriage, Eva Longoria filed for divorce from NBA star Tony Parker in November 2010. The split was rumored to be a result of Parker's infidelity. In January 2012, Longoria opened up to Health magazine about her post-split weight loss: "I remember after my divorce, I was so thin and everyone kept saying how great I looked and it was probably the most unhealthy place I've ever been. So it was funny what people would see as 'healthy.' In my worst time, people were saying I've never looked better."
