Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise were married for eleven years. And although
Kidman doesn’t speak up often about her marriage to the Top Gun actor, she
has revealed that the two were in a “perfect” marriage.
Kidman is
in a longstanding relationship with Keith Urban now, a man she considers
“the love of her life.” Yet before meeting the country singer, the Big
Little Lies actor was under the impression that she’d never find love again
following her split with Cruise.
Nicole Kidman compares her relationship with Tom Cruise to Brad Pitt
and Angelina Jolie
Kidman and Cruise shared a special relationship because both
were experiencing the same level of fame. Because of their mutual status as
celebrities, the trials and tribulations of their extremely publicized lives
brought them even closer together. Kidman describes the experience as
“intoxicating.”
“There is something about that sort of existence that, if you
really focus on each other and you’re in that bubble, it’s very intoxicating
because it’s just the two of you. And there is only one other person that’s
going through it. So it brings you very close, and it’s deeply romantic.”
Kidman
goes on to add another A-list Hollywood (ex) couple who probably shared a
similar experience to her and Cruise.
She says, “I’m sure Brad and Angelina have that—because there’s
nobody else that understands it except that person who’s sleeping right next
to you.”
Nicole Kidman never thought she’d marry again after getting divorced
from Tom Cruise
Kidman was under the impression that she’d never get married
again or even find love, following her split from Cruise. According to the
Moulin Rouge star, she had a perfect marriage with the actor, and mentioned
that their divorce was a “shock” to the system.
It took her a long time to heal from the breakup. She reveals
how heartbroken she was, saying,
“Our life together was perfect.
It took me a very long time to heal,” she admits. “It was a shock to my
system. That was a great relationship. I think it ran its course. I was
really damaged and not sure whether [love and marriage] was ever going to
happen again to me.”
Nicole Kidman is now happily married to Keith Urban
Lucky for Kidman, she was able to find love down the road
again. Now, the Australian star is married to Keith Urban. According to
Kidman, Urban makes her feel extremely confident and comfortable. She goes
on, saying her husband “protects” her.
“Honestly though, I
married into my heart. He just came along and protected me,” Kidman gushes
to People. “He’s loved me, given me confidence, and made me so much more
comfortable. He knows who I am, and he’s opened me up. We have an
interesting balance because I’m an introvert, and he’s an extrovert.”
Thankfully, Urban is just as smitten with his partner.
According to Fox News, the country star has been waiting his whole life for
someone like Kidman.
He professes, “She’s the one. She’s the one
that I was searching for my whole life. And everything not only changed but
had to change in me if I was going to go that road.”
