I haven’t seen a statement from Nicole Kidman’s camp saying that this story isn’t accurate, so I’ll report it. If it turns out not to be true, I’ll update this post. Anyway…
Heat Magazine has a quote from Nicole Kidman and it is taking the internet by storm. Nicole tells Heat magazine, “It’s a pity they have been manipulated by the father to distance themselves from me.”
She’s obviously speaking about her children Isabella and Connor Cruise.
She said she tried to arrange a Mother’s Day visit, but the kids ended up spending time with Tom and Katie instead. “They are closer to their new mom now,” she admitted.
I know that we all saw pictures of their kids on Mother’s Day and they were with Tom and Katie. I really hope that this story isn’t true because if it is, it’s just awful. I can’t imagine not being able to spend Mother’s Day with my kids. I know that we don’t know everything about Nicole, but it has always seemed to me that she was a good mother and that she loves Isabella and Connor.
I’ll keep an eye out for any statements made by either party…

Tyler, TC did say he meant no disrespect to his ex-wives……………….
Entertainment Weekly June 2005.
Good Housekeeping June 2006.
I do agree with you about being appalled by NK’s comment about always wanting a child seeing that she already has two and I don’t always agree with some of the things TC has said either.
Nicole was wrong to leave her kids, but he’s still a douche. Nothing will ever convince me otherwise.
Jarjorge, Tom split with Nicole in Feb 2006 and the relationship with Penelope started in July. Now that is long in hollywood. Most people satart dating before one marriage is over and even get their lovers pregnant before the split is announced. Lets not be harsh on poor Tom.
I remem ber seeing TC on Oprah talking about Nicole. He only had nice things to say. Nicole too about Tom on Oprah. Now I guess she has changed her mind.
I am sure if put on the spot like Tom was, she would say she feels for for her current husband as she has said she has never been happier or complete than she is now. Do you see TC crying foul?
Why are you people crying a river for her when she said during her marriage to TC she lost her identity?
Sorry, Feb 2001
Tyler: He really isn’t a douche………If you met him I think you’d probably like him.
I met him at a screening, he was lovely.
Mary every one who has met him says he is a lovely man. I know many do not agree with his beliefs. I personally don’t believe he should a fall for them. There are so many bad people out there. Even non fans cannot say more than five reasons why they dislike him. Most do not think about their selfish desire to attack the Scientology church. Which is sad because what they are doing to him is what they are accusing the church of doing to them. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
I don’t remember Nicole ever saying she was desperate for a child. She did say recently that she really wanted a baby…and I’ve seen interviews with her where they ask her about kids and she said she’d like “one more.” I’ve never heard her talk like she doesn’t already have 2 beautiful children.
I think this is all being blown way out of proportion when she probably didn’t even say these things.
Tyler- I agree with you about that statement he made on Oprah. When you’ve been married twice before, you shouldn’t say something like that…even if it’s true, just out of respect!
Nicole kidman has not wanted to see her kids and then she swoops in to say can I see them mom’s day. Tom has had it with her and said you can’t just reappear when you want to, she is not cpnsistant, and he is a good dad.And by the way she cheated on him, that is why he left her.
andrew morton, wrote in his book, that nk ,was @ is abad mother……i don’t believe that….what i believe ,is, they are not her 1st priority……her career has been! a nanny ,to nk @tc wrote abook about her time in hollywood ,i think it was called , ‘i’llnever work in this town again” something like that, she wrote, that she never saw nicole,with or without the kids! tc used to look after them. there are a lot women in world ,who don’t have a strong maternal bond with their children…..accordingto everyone here , we’ll go through fire @hell to be with our children, so what’s her problem?…nk is respected in hollywood, it’s not like she’s a nobody or doesn’ have millionsat her disposal…….she could always take legal action,and win,if she wanted……
puckhappy…i only ever write ,what i have actually seen ,interiews from respected mags,eg ladies home journal,vogue, vanity fair ,et news clips,from here,in australia, the insider, inside edition ,et,books , that have been written by reputable people ……..i also like to think ,that i am an intelligent human being…….what i don’t do, is,go on gossip sites,read mags like star, famous,et @ believe the rubbish they put out there,or print the worst photo, to go with the story.
Kelly- your post is totally made up. tt has NEVER said that he ” has had it with her and said you can’t just reappear when you want to, she is not cpnsistant”
IT IS FACT that on the Oprah show just three and a half weeks ago when asked BY OPRAH if Nicole sees her kids he rudely said “Whenever”. He said they have joint custody.
So STOP making up stories.
BESIDES THE FACT THAT ALL OF THE “FANS” HAVE ALREADY SAID THAT tt HAS NEVER SAID ANYTHING BAD ABOUT NICOLE. So IF you are a real fan, get with the program and keep your stories straight!
I believe Nicole’s better off without Cruise. She became her own person.
Annie, Well I only post what I am told first hand by tt coworkers!
A mother’s s[NK] silence is a weapon that she uses wisely to keep the peace and harmony in order ensuring that each child are kept away from comments such as posted on this page by many.
TC continuously implements publicly mind games used against NK during the most important time of her life. She is carrying a child. My opinion of TC’s intention is to destroy another’s happiness.
What NK silence?………………..She’s the one who is talking not TC!
TC has made a laughing stock not only of himself, but of a 27 year-old girl for whom he walks on water. If he would have practiced silence, much as NK has done, his image wouldn’t be so tarnished.
Much as NK has done in reference to what?
It is unbelievable to me and even those in the media and even to her supporters that NK continues to talk about Cruise seven years after their divorce!
Obviously TC is in your head Mary…wake-up girl.
Thanks for the advice………………….Don’t need it.
I do happen to think NK constantly has TC in her head though, for some inexplicable reason not even marriage can stop her speaking about the man.
Appreciated.:)- unfortunately the best is to be left between the parties to sort it out behind closed doors…..
it’s official!…..tom cruise is always wrong! everthing he does ….everything he says, is always wrong…. he’s a bad man ,bad husband,bad actor,bad father………bad everything! …….it’s ok russell, go throw another phone at someones head, we forgive you,……..keith, you’ve been an alcaholic, used cocaine,forever; had an affair while you were seeing nic,unfortunately you are not front page material,……..so you’re forgiven. oh i forgot their names are not TOM
perez hilton site says nk is having a baby boy
Congrats to Nicole and her husband!! I am SURE they feel blessed with either another boy OR girl.
I am sure Connor is TOTALLY JAZED to be getting a baby brother And now Bella with have TWO brothers and one sister!
And if all you fans want to talk about affairs….. What about the affair that tt had when he was married to Mimi, just before he had Davey boy arrange the divorce from her? And then there was the affair he was having when he had his BFF arrange his divorce from Nicole. And didn’t we just recently see pics of him and another woman getting all touchy feelly as they were entering a elevator at a hotel?
Nicole Kidman is a great Mother.Tom has lost the plot after divorcing her and getting into this scientology rubbish! Nicole is better off with Keith. He is a hunk and their baby is going to be beautiful.
trust me mary……….the torch is still burning! some people on this site, have said that katie sold her soul for fame @fortune………i say a BIG HA!…..NICOLE sold out to herself she did’twant to lose face,………been on this earth a long time, judging situations, @people , almost becomes second nature. no matter how she pretends, for cameras,after all,she an oscar winner no less………….she has’nt stopped talking about him for 8years,in every mag ,interview, and it’s not for her kids benefit either.. she doesn’t seem to mention him on tv only in the mags. …….ok ,tell me now,to rack off! i’m sure this is’nt going to go down well with some people.
oh yes! ………perez hilton……..now i see things more clearly…….thank you tyler.
Now annie, did Tyler post that perez was saying the absolute truth or did he just do an FYI about what perez had posted?
And IF Nicole only talks about tt in mag interviews, is it possible that the mag added the quotes and it was NEVER words from Nicoles mouth?
Or maybe you’d like to post an attachment of EVERY SINGLE INTERVIEW that Nicole has done over the last eight years as PROOF!
I’d say it would most likely be close to 200-500 world wide magazine publications that she has been quoted AND MISQUOTED!
Mary, you seem to be obsessed with TC.
no puckhappy………these were full photo spreads with the interviews , 2 that come to mind ,was vogue, @a huge interview with , australian womens weekly, pages @pages of it and lots of others……..i have no reason to make this up ….its all out there,puckhappy, all out there.
Every single interview Annie? Wow, that’s a lot of interviews. You follow NK that closely? That must take a lot of time.
Oops, just saw Annie’s latest comment so scratch mine.
Annie, what were the dates on those interviews you mentioned above? I have a recent interview where she mentioned that she had lost a baby early in the marriage, but it was not about Tom. It was about her situation, her life. Her life no longer revolves around Tom. You’re confusing her with Katie LOL.
Let me get this right, the tabs are wrong when Katie is crying to them about Tom and then right when Nicole is doing the crying to them.
How many stories are out there about Katie crying to tabs about controlling Tom or Katie saying that Tom keeps the kids away from their real mother? I can count all of it on both of my hands. But they are wrong!!
Then we get one of Nic and she is this horrible woman and mother because we all know it is soooo true because SHE CAN”T AFFORD A LAWYER!!
Also, Cruise wanted and still wants another baby and that is okay, but Nic wants a baby and it is wrong and she is a bad mother!!
There are a lot of double standards here! But, since most of you are RABID FANS, you have to blame Nic for all of Cruise’s failures in the last ten years. I sure hope Cruise and his trophy can live up to everyone’s expectations of perfection here. Although, I think you will all be disappointed.
There also seems to be a lot people who are in the know about this family…as if they are family friends. How sad for Cruise, Holmes, and Kidman that so many close people to them come to this site to share their personal lives with the rest of us!! It would make me wonder who my ‘friends and associates’ really are.
Personally, I think Nic is in LA more than we know. I can think of several times this year she has been pictured in LA. And that is just pictured!!
no tyler,these are going over a few years @ those mags were in a doctors surgery anyway the ladies home journal was only a few months before her marriage and the most recent one was vanity fair which ididn’t buy anyway because all the important bits were plasterd all over the news papers, the reason being ,they ,too found her comments unusual, ‘
@so did the readers…….tyler i don’t make things up to make people look good or bad.
The reason NK mentions tom in interviews is cause she always gets asked about him. Look at interviews with Letterman et al. Always, Tom and the kids are brought up. I’m sure the print journos do the same thing.
THE REASON? She was alone until she got together with Keith. The journos stopped asking tom about NK because he moved on quicker.
@ means at, not and! This means ‘and’ &
GIRLS!……..LETS ALL AGREE ,TO DISAGREE. @ just leave it at that.
So Annie, what you are saying is that for the last 8 yrs, Nicole has talked about tt in EVERY SINGLE INTERVIEW, is that correct?
AND yet you only site TWO interviews over the eight yrs and those have full photo spreads as proof.
Now let me ask, did you read her lips in the photo spread to know that she was talking about tt?
puckhappy, you know, you’re right, i agree with you completely. yes ,i could’t read her lips ,and yes ,i’ve come to realise,that those mag articles are ”all made up,” so is mortons book and the nannys book, and keith is perfect ….sorry puck my mistake.
So much to say so little time.
Can’t go through all this right now but from what I picked up.
Jenny, yes this is not Hana’s website neither is Doug, NS, Tyler, CM….who have in the past told people what to say and what not to. I do agree with Hana instead of posting long comments that are OFF TOPICS you can just post links. The rules are there for us to follow and if the webmistress is not replying to people’s email then we can let her and everyone know by leaving our comments here.
PuckHappy, once again, I’m baffled with the things you come up with. Now, Tom Cruise Can’t even promote his movies on MTV and BET? If the likes of Harrison Ford can appear on TRL to promote his moive, why can’t Tom? What is wrong with appearing on those programs? Cruise always promotes his movies very well….maybe that is why he’s successful.
“GIRLS!……..LETS ALL AGREE ,TO DISAGREE. @ just leave it at that.”
I TOTALLY AGREE!
Hana..I feel I must respond to your comment. I call things like I see them most of the time and try to be straightforward with my comments here. I did read all of Anon’s comments and only chose one to speak about because it is the only one that was on my radar. I like for things to be factual, as much as possible, and you were saying that noone had ever made the comment about them wanting a boy when they already had one. I knew that was wrong because I remember hearing it during that interview and all anyone has to do is go find it on youtube. I didn’t say anything about the bio vs. adopted’s because I felt like Tom made it clear how he felt about the 2 during his Oprah interview. HE himself didn’t use the words bio or adopted but I felt like he did make a distinction between the 2. It was one of only 2 things I didnt like about the whole interview. I felt like when he talked about Suri he made it seem like he loved her more and thought more of her than the other 2. Even though he was responding to questions asked of him about Suri I felt like he could have done more to bring his older children into the conversation and make it clear that he had THREE kids who meant a lot to him. I don’t feel like he did that. So that is why I didnt say anything about that here. I don’t really try to be unbiased I just try and call things like I see them. Having said that, I found it interesting to read Lauren’s choice of words to Hana….something like “coming to the rescue.” Just curious why anyone would feel like they need to be anyone’s savior here?
Lilianne, I was jokinglyu responding to Hana’s post earlier where she said
‘where is Lauren and Tia when you need them’
I guess being a lover of conspiracies, you cannot help but think there is a big conspiracy to have Cruise’s fans comment here. Sorry to disappoint, I found Hana here and any other fans.
I do strongly disagree with you about Tom and his kids. From when Suri was born, every one was waiting for Tom to treat her differently from his other kids. I guess even if he totallyignored her and we saw him with only Bella and Connor in Gr, critics would say he is exposing them to the public and hiding his golden child. To these people there is no winning. Tom has made it clear in so many interviews that he loves his children equally and does not make a distinction. People will always say what they want to say, not matter all evidence to the contrary.
Puck and Bumble,
I am sure no one asked Nicole about her miscarriages since no one knew about them. Lets face it, this is showbiz and if you want to remain relevant, you have to be newsworthy. Such stories of miscarriages early in her marriages are what captures attention. I will not judge her on that because that is the trade she is in.
Anon, it is Nicole who is calling up tabloids and telling them her woes. It is also non fans who brought up the issue of TC wanting another child badly. We ‘rabid’ fans only responded that Nicole has been deperate for a child like she has none. Which is true. Just google her names and see stories that come up. I would never have brought it up otherwise.
Notice that we have all expressed our hope that this article is false. Personally I don’t see her doing it. If she did and we will find out in due course, I lose respect for her.
She has resources, let her go to court and ask for more rights or enforcement of the custody agreement. Better still call up TC and solve this behind closed doors. Calling up tabloids is beyond cheap.
Lauren, Please do not make assumptions about me and my motives behind what I say and do here. I find it interesting that you took my question and made the leap from my simple curiosity to a conspiracy theory and then made a blanket statement about me (someone you know NOTHING about) being a “lover of conspiracies”. Perhaps you have me confused with someone else? I was merely curious about your choice of words and asked a simple question which you cleared up for me. I had not seen a post about “where are Lauren and Tia when you need them.” So now your words make sense. I don’t see why you need to turn something simple into something complicated?
As for you disagreeing with me about Tom regarding his children…..that is fine. I am not like some here who require others to fall into line with their way of thinking or else they will pick on them. We do not agree that he did not and does not distinguish between his kids. I felt like he did in that Oprah interview and it bothered me for his older kids. I felt like he did them a disservice as their parent and I would have been hurt if I had been in their shoes. He made it seem like Suri is his whole reason for living and that since having her his life is markedly better. Maybe I read too much into it but that is how I felt regarding his words.
Lilianne: Thank you for your comment. I do think you say things as you see it and are unbiased but I think you misread my reply. I didn’t say “noone” had ever made the comment about them wanting a boy. I was referring to Tom and not Katie and I did make that clear on my second comment. Also I’ve been looking for that interview with KH and I’m yet to find it.
TC doesn’t talk about his older children in any other way than he does about Suri. If he talks about her a lot more than the older children, that is because the interviewers are more interested in her than they are in the older children and they always menstion the fact that the older children are “adopted”…..and has nothing to do with how TC feels. I remember once, I think it was on Jay Leon show, JL kept referring to Suri as if she was his only daughter and TC made it clear he already has another daughter.
Again, I’m sorry but I really didn’t distinguish any differnce with the way he talked about his older children to Oprah….here are some quotes from the show and other quotes when TC talked about his children. (apology in advance for my long post)
“When he’s being scrutinized by the media, Tom says he hopes it doesn’t affect Bella and Connor, who are now old enough to understand what’s going on in the press. “They love me, so they know. They’ve grown up with that, and I’m sure there are things that they don’t like, and you go, ‘Okay, that happened, things go wrong, but don’t live in it. Don’t live in that because today is a new day and there’s plenty of tomorrows,’” he says. “They’re good people, my children. I’m proud of them.”
“I don’t want them to worry,” he says. “They know I’m there. No matter what, I’m always there.”
“Tom says his children from his previous marriage to actress Nicole Kidman, Bella and Connor, were ready to welcome their new sister. “They were really excited,”
“In 2001, Tom and Nicole went through a highly publicized divorce. Now, Tom says they have a good relationship and the rumors that Nicole has been pushed out of Bella’s and Connor’s lives are untrue. “No, that’s ridiculous,” he says.”
Tom says the children have maintained relationships with Nicole and still see her. “We share custody,” he says. “That’s what it is.”
“When someone compares your daughter to Rosemary’s Baby? It’s one thing to say things about me but when it’s about my children or my family — that is off the charts.”
(He didn’t say my CHILD here, he said MY CHILDREN.)
“Tom draws Oprah’s attention to a picture Bella painted just for him. “She was about 10 years old when she painted that for me,” he says. “Isn’t that sweet?”
………………………………
In another recent interview, when he was asked about his “adopted children” he said
Tom recently told Hello! Magazine that he loves all his children equally. “I wanted to be a father all my life. Truly it makes no difference to me between my adopted children and Suri. I’ve never separated them in my thoughts – I just don’t feel that way about it,”
“I like to encourage my kids to be open to other people, and other ways of life, and to be curious about them. That’s why we like to travel as a family.”
……………………..
OLD QUOTES
“I think you all know what a gift children are. I feel the responsibility of that because they are the future. I feel overwhelmed with emotion at times when I look at my children. I always wanted to be a father my whole life. So I’m hoping I have 10 children,” he joked.
This is old but still I thought I’ll post it (From 2003)
Couric: “I know, Tom, that you really make a huge effort to be there for your kids, but it must be hard, is it? Because you’re on location, you’re traveling. I mean, your work schedule is so demanding.”
Cruise: “But I— the schedule goes around the kids. That’s what we do. They’re the priority.”
Cruise: “No, not to Japan. But they were in New Zealand, and they, you know, what greater place to learn about life? And I feel as a parent, my job is to educate them and give them the ability to make good decisions and learn about the world. And they have an opportunity that I never had, they get to see the world. So they have a great life, you know. I want to be my kids.”
I was also joking when I said “where are Tia and Lauren when you need them”, and I’m sure you got that from the “LOL”.
Ok..when I am wrong I say I am wrong. I just went back and watched the clip from Letterman’s show in January and I have the facts wrong. Katie did not say that they did not know what it is like to have a boy. When David mentioned to her about having more kids he said something like…having a girl you probably want to know what it is like to have a boy right? And she just agreed with him. I was wrong about what she said so for that I am sorry. I do feel that it might have been appropriate for her to say at that time that “we already have a boy, remember? So anyway..sorry once again for reporting things incorrectly.
I forgot to add…NK has talked about how the older children don’t like it when they talk about them in public, especially Bella who have asked her not to talk about her in her interviews. Also on Oprah show when TC was showing Oprah their house, he said Bella and Connor have asked him not to go to their rooms.
