9 Nicole Kidman Rumors That Are Impossible to Ignore
Nicole Kidman has had a captivating life and career over the decades, and while the public and media have been enamored with her, they’ve also subjected her to very public scrutiny and criticism. From her early days and a high-profile divorce from Tom Cruise to her current status as an award-winning A-lister, Kidman has always been surrounded by rumors about her marriages, motherhood, and career that are sometimes accurate and sometimes fiction. She’s always handled them with grace and managed her narrative with ease, whether it’s with a dignified silence, brushing them off, or confronting lies with legal action. Here are nine rumors about this Aussie star that we can’t ignore—and all the ways she responded to them.
All the affair rumors
No one in Hollywood is immune to affair rumors, and Nicole Kidman has been the subject of many. On the set of “Cold Mountain” in the early 2000s, the “Babygirl” star was allegedly involved with Jude Law. It was even worse that Jude was married at the time, so Kidman was seen as a home-wrecker. This rumor came on the heels of other romantic rumors, including gossip that she cheated on her ex, Tom Cruise, and that she was involved with her co-star from “Moulin Rouge!”, Ewan McGregor.
Nicole Kidman’s divorce from Tom Cruise was rife with speculation
When Nicole Kidman got divorced from Tom Cruise in 2001, it was one of Hollywood’s most high-profile divorces—the two stole hearts both on and off-screen, and many were devastated. Cruise filed for divorce weeks after they celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary and vow renewal. While some blamed Scientology or their chaotic acting careers, others were suspicious that a third party was involved. However, court papers indicate that the downfall coincided with a recent miscarriage Kidman had and that she begged Cruise to stay with her. A year later, Cruise told Vanity Fair, “She knows why, and I know why,” which didn’t put anyone at ease.
After her divorce, she became a meme
While the divorce was supposedly amicable, Nicole Kidman was photographed in a now-iconic image that was reportedly snapped after she left her lawyer’s office following the divorce. Her arms are flung open, and she looks to be in total euphoria. This photo turned into a viral meme years later on social media, but the story behind the marriage ending is still somewhat of a mystery. Kidman addressed the photo when speaking with British GQ, saying, “That was not me; that was from a film, that wasn’t real life. I know that image!”
