22 years ago, Tom Cruise filed for divorce from the mother of his two adopted kids, Nicole Kidman, right after they celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary.

Nicole Kidman was shocked when Tom Cruise divorced her just after their 10th wedding anniversary and pleaded with him to save their marriage.

The ex’s relationship nowadays is complicated, though they share two adopted kids.

“Top Gun” star unexpectedly skipped the Oscars, and the reason is connected to his ex-wife.

Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise had one of the most high-profile marriages of the 1990s, and when they divorced, the world was shocked. None were more shocked than Kidman, who did not expect her husband to divorce her.

Cruise and Kidman have remained civil in the two decades since their marriage, but there is no love lost between them, and they do not enjoy being in one another’s company for any reason.

This has prompted some to believe that this is why Cruise skipped 2023’s Oscar Awards ceremony. Kidman and Urban were on the red carpet and in the Dolby Theatre for the evening.

With the success of the revival of “Topgun,” many assumed that Cruise would be in attendance to celebrate the film and to possibly accept an award for the movie that was said to have “saved Hollywood.”

Yet Cruise was not in attendance on the red carpet or for the rest of the ceremony. A source confirmed:
