Nicole Kidman, who recently filed for divorce from Keith Urban after 19 years of marriage, has sparked renewed attention with a savage remark she once made about her ex-husband Tom Cruise. The actress filed for divorce officially on September 30, citing irreconcilable differences, with sources saying the couple had been living separately since early summer.
The remark dates back to 2001 when Kidman appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman shortly after her split from Cruise. When asked how she was doing, Kidman smirked and quipped, “Well, I can wear heels now,” referring to Cruise’s famously modest height of about 5’7″.
The comment, delivered with humor, had the audience laughing before Kidman quickly pivoted, saying, “Let’s move on.” Kidman and Cruise were married for a decade and share two adopted children.
Meanwhile, Kidman leans on close friends like Naomi Watts for support as she navigates her current split from Urban.
