Nicole Kidman has made a rare comment about her high-profile marriage to ex Tom Cruise.
In a new interview with British Vogue, the Babygirl actress opened up about what it was like marrying Tom at age 22.
“Because of who I married at such a young age, I was thrust into it since I was 22,” Nicole said. “Yeah, I got married so young.”
“Suddenly I was 22, 23 years old and I had this huge movie star husband. But it just seemed completely natural. We just fell madly in love and it was that simple,” she continued.
The 59-year-old actress further told the outlet that she was warned the marriage could affect her acting career.
“I remember people saying to me, ‘Okay, well this is really going to affect your career.’ I’m like, ‘I don’t care. I’m in love. I want to be married.’ And then I was his ‘wife’ and they were like, ‘See, we told you.’ I’m like, ‘So what? I wasn’t meant to marry the man I love? Of course I’ll throw my career away. I don’t care,’” she said.
For those unversed, Nicole and Tom were married from 1990 to 2001.
The actress later married Keith Urban in 2006. The two parted ways last year after 19 years of marriage.
