Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman’s marriage was the epitome of Hollywood glamour in the ‘90s. Though they didn’t have biological kids, they adopted Isabella and Connor, raising them in the spotlight. But after their 2001 divorce, their children’s lives took unexpected turns. Today, both live far from fame, following paths shaped by their parents’ separation.
Isabella, the older of the two, was adopted in 1992. Post-divorce, she stayed close to Cruise, who was deeply entrenched in Scientology. Over the years, she’s avoided media attention, appearing only occasionally in paparazzi shots. Now an adult, she leads a reclusive life, with little connection to Kidman.
Connor, adopted as a toddler, grew up under Cruise’s wing and embraced Scientology. He’s been spotted fishing and DJing, showing no interest in acting like his parents. While he’s slightly more visible than his sister, he still keeps a firm distance from Hollywood.
Kidman, who went on to have two daughters with Keith Urban, has had strained ties with Isabella and Connor. Reports suggest their differing beliefs—particularly Cruise’s Scientology influence—created a lasting divide.
Years later, the once-famous family remains fractured. Isabella and Connor, now grown, seem to prefer anonymity, leaving their parents’ stardom firmly in the past.
