Nicole Kidman wants to reconcile with the children she adopted with ex-husband Tom Cruise

Nicole Kidman wants to reconcile with the children she adopted with ex-husband Tom Cruise

Nicole Kidman, 57, wants to make peace with her two adopted children, whom she adopted in the early 90s together with her ex-husband Tom Cruise. This is reported by New Idea, citing an insider close to the actress.

Her decision was influenced by the recent death of her mother Janelle, who was worried that she had not had time to communicate with her grandchildren. "Losing her mother made Nicole think about reconciliation and not put it off any longer. Janelle was hurt that she and her husband Anthony had become distant from Isabella and Connor."

"They were their first grandchildren and were once very close. It's a shame she wasn't able to see them before she died."

31-year-old Isabella and 29-year-old Connor have not communicated with the actress since her divorce from Cruise in 2001. The reason for the breakup of Cruise and Kidman was the actor's passion for Scientology, and his children followed his example, and stopped communicating with their mother against this background.

Nicole Kidman also has two daughters with her husband Keith Urban: Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret. Cruise has a daughter, Svoi, with his ex-wife Katie Holmes, with whom the actor also broke up due to his passion for Scientology. Cruise does not communicate with his daughter now, and according to media reports, Suri has even refused his last name.
