Nicole Kidman ‘gained confidence’ from Tom Cruise divorce

Nicole Kidman’s marriage to Keith Urban may be on the rocks, but that hasn’t stopped the Australian actress from opening up about her husband and life after Tom Cruise.

The 46-year-old has revealed she is more confident in herself now than she ever was with her ex-husband, whom she divorced in 2001 after more than a decade together.

Despite sharing two daughters – Sunday, 5, and Faith, 3 –  with Keith, and children Connor, 19, and Isabella, 21, with Tom, Nicole admits life is much “simpler”.

“Everything is different, simpler. I’m more confident within myself and calmer,” the Grace of Monaco star told French newspaper Le Matin.

“It’s no doubt due to the extra years that have made me more mature and surer of my beliefs and my choices.”

Nicole and Keith’s relationship has reportedly suffered under tyranny of distance and Nic’s insecurities and jealousy over her hubby’s apparent flirting with other women.
