Tom Cruise reportedly wants to meet Nicole Kidman in person after her recent comments about their marriage brought their past back into focus. A source claims the actor now believes a private conversation could help both former spouses address unresolved feelings and finally close that chapter of their lives.
Tom Cruise wants to meet Nicole Kidman ‘face to face’ after her interview confession, per source
According to a source cited by the National Enquirer, Cruise no longer feels as irritated by Kidman’s public comments as he once did. He reportedly previously disliked seeing his former wife discuss their relationship in interviews, but his attitude has now changed. “Not so long ago, it really irritated Tom that Nicole would talk about him in interviews,” the source said. “But he’s now saying she clearly has some unresolved issues and if it’s cathartic for her to talk about them, then he can accept it.”
Kidman, 59, recently spoke about her marriage to Cruise, 64, in an interview with British Vogue. She recalled how people warned her before their 1990 wedding that marrying Cruise could affect her career. At the time, she ignored those concerns because she loved him and wanted to marry him. Kidman’s comments focused more on her own thoughts at the time than on criticizing her former husband.
The report also noted that Kidman has not used her interviews to attack Cruise or share private details about their marriage. “In fairness to Nicole, it’s not like she’s going into detail and ripping him to pieces,” the insider said. “She’s talking more about her own journey and who she was at the time.” Cruise reportedly appreciates that Kidman has largely avoided speaking negatively about him.
The source claimed Cruise believes a direct conversation could help them deal with any unresolved issues between them. “He would prefer she got over this need to reference him this way,” the insider said. He also believes they should “sit down with her face to face and hash things out.” The former couple married in 1990 and later adopted two children, Bella and Connor. They separated in 2001, ending their 11-year marriage.
