Nicole Kidman On Her Adopted Children: It "Was Their Choice" To Live With Tom Cruise
Posted on Tue Dec 21, 2010 03:15 PM PDT
Sad face!
Nicole Kidman is busy promoting her critically acclaimed film Rabbit Hole, about a couple whose son is killed in a car accident, and Kidman often brings up what it means to be a mom to Sunday Rose, her two-year-old daughter with hubby Keith Urban...
But the actress has two other kids as well! Connor and Isabella, her adopted children with ex husband Tom Cruise.
"They live with Tom, which was their choice," Kidman reveals to Hello! Magazine. "I'd love them to live with us, but what can you do?"
Cruise resides in LA mainly while Kidman lives in Nashville.
The Rabbit Hole star also said the following to the AP: "It took me so long to get pregnant and have a baby, so I have enormous gratitude. I have two grown children with that enormous gratitude that they are healthy and sane and together and are great, great people. So I’m not one of those people that needs to be reminded of what I have."
Does that mean she hardly ever sees her adopted kids? And if so, is she truly happier or sadder because of it?
Hmm...

never, never seen her with Connor and Isabella...i wonder if that is their choice too...
It is probably there choice and she doesn't parade them out to the paps like Tom and Katie do!!!
I think that she is doing what is best for her children...to her own demise.
Scientology wins out, I guess. Nothing like brain washing--thanks, Tom.
There are plenty of photos of her with Connor and Isabella. Just because they chose to stay in California where they were raised doesn't mean she never sees them. Geezz
She is a good mother...to ALL of her three children. She has chosen to live a low key life in Nashville.
Why is x17 trying to put a twist on this non-story? That final question onthe caption is just silly.
Don't really see them with Tom, katie,kieth or nicole so who do they depend on? CPS??
tom cruise is a piece of trash for divorcing her and then brain washing those kids! nicole kidman is a great mom. this story makes me sick.
I respect her deeply for accepting the children´ choice knowing that this is not easy. In a divorce children often tend emotionally to one side and blame one parent for breaking up the family though they donß t understand the deeper reasons. If it is true the children stayed with Cruise´s mother and sister in L.A., I don´t buy it that they are with Katie, who I don´t see as positive as a lot of people seem to do. After all she made her own decisions as an adult, so I don´t see why she is considered to be a victim. More of somebody selling her soul to the devil for the money.
There was no way the Scientolonuts or Tom "Cruising" were going to let Nicole take those kids away from the cult. No f*cking way. And they wont let Suri go either. Hell, she's probably being touted as the re-incarnation of L. Ron Hubbard.
I'm sure she's sad not to see her older children, but is wise enough not to try to fight the entire Scientology church.
Tom has said the kids live with his sister. So they are not with Nicole or Tom. They are with his sister. Tom has been out of the country for months. NO family with him. Katie has been filming in the States with Suri. NO Connor or Isabella.. so that says it all. I don't care how old the kids are neither of these parents are spending a lot of time with the older kids. Nicole's statement shows she does not spend much time with her older children. Plus some of her statements about becoming a mother after giving birth is what fueled this and other stories. It was based on the things she has said in the press. She was the one talking about Sunday Rose as if she was her ONLY child.
It is strange but who knows what is going on really.
I'm pretty sure the scientologists had something to do with the kid's decision. Nicole never accepted Tom's cult beliefs, but he apparently managed to brain wash the kids.
I would remind everyone that teenagers like Conner and Isabella need to be in one place for schooling. They can't traipse around the world with their famous parents. Tom has family in LA, where the kids prefer to reside. Nicole's family is in Australia.
I've seen Nic in photos with her teens, but she doesn't use them as PR props like Tom.
