Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise were once the golden couple of Hollywood. Their love story began on the set of the movie “Days of Thunder” in 1990, where they instantly clicked. Two years later, they adopted their daughter, Isabella Jane, followed by their son, Connor Antony, three years after that.
Tom Cruise’s Role in the Relationship
Back then, Tom Cruise was undeniably the bigger star of the two. In fact, he played a significant role in making their relationship happen. Cruise recognized Nicole Kidman’s acting talent when she starred in the 1989 film “Dead Calm.” He convinced the producers of “Days of Thunder” to cast Kidman as his love interest in the movie, and the rest is history.
Challenges in Their Marriage
Their marriage seemed perfect on the surface, but after 11 years, Tom Cruise filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. They faced heartbreaking challenges along the way, like Nicole’s ectopic pregnancy in 1990, which resulted in the loss of their baby. Despite their difficulties, they decided to explore other options and chose to adopt Isabella Jane in 1992 and Connor Antony in 1995.
Children All Grown Up
Today, Isabella, now 30, and Connor, 28, have grown up away from the public eye and have achieved success in their own right. Isabella, who prefers to be called Bella, has pursued a career as an artist and hairdresser. She currently resides in London with her British husband, Max Parker. While she keeps a relatively low profile, Bella actively shares her artwork and glimpses of her life on social media.
Bella’s Journey and Artistry
Bella’s Instagram page, with over 50,000 followers, showcases her artwork. In 2020, she surprised her fans by sharing a rare selfie. In one photo, Bella rocks a black hat and captions it with a dose of humor. In another, she’s in her kitchen with her hand on her head, proclaiming it the “procrastination station.” Bella’s creativity and humor shine through her posts.
Their Scientology Connection
Bella, like her father and brother, is a Scientologist. In an interview with Who magazine, she expressed that both she and Connor made the decision to be Scientologists. Nicole Kidman, Bella’s mother, has voiced her support and respect for her children’s beliefs. While some speculate that different faith and opinion contributed to Kidman and Cruise’s divorce, Bella and Connor chose to live with their father at the time.
Bella’s Path and Passion
Contrary to expectations, Bella has chosen not to pursue acting like her famous father. Instead, she has developed a passion for fashion, similar to her stepmother, Katie Holmes. This led her to move to London to study at the Sassoon Academy, a renowned cosmetology school, and she now works as a hairdresser.
Recently, Bella shared another rarely seen selfie, showcasing her new hairstyle and striking new look. Fans have even noticed similarities between her and her father, such as the “dents in her nose” and “smile lines.” What do you think?
