Nicole Kidman Skipped Son Connor’s Premiere, Too
Posted by Sweatpantsmom at 6:15 AM on December 22, 2008
So it's come to my attention that not only did Tom Cruise skip son Connor's "Seven Pounds" movie premiere, but mum Nicole Kidman did as well. Tom's excuse was that he was promoting his upcoming, already critically-panned, "Valkyrie" but what was Nicole's excuse? Seeing as her current film, "Australia" tanked, perhaps mum and dad were too busy licking their wounds to come out to support their only son?

Not to be cynical, but it seems Tom and Nicole are rarely seen with Connor and sister Isabella, besides the rare photo op at a soccer game or dinner out. Tom takes every opportunity he can get, however, to be photographed with daughter Suri and Nicole is often quoted gushing about baby Sunday Rose but almost never mentions her older children.
Hey, if I were Connor or Isabella I'd be crying foul. But that's just me being cynical again.
Maybe she stayed away because she was being a good mum and did not want to take the attention away from her son and have it be on her. If she would have attended, the press would have paid no attention to Connor and ignored him in favour of getting pictures and asking questions of Nicole. I had heard she was there but did not walk the red carpet and had snuck in unnoticed.
Connor did not attend the premiere, so naturally neither Tom nor Nicole was there.
Perhaps Connor was too embarrassed to be seen with his crazy parents?

“already critically-panned” What the heck are you talking about??
Its getting mixed reviews, in Germany its mostly good.
Enjoy writing for the Dialy Telegraph.
Tom and Katie LIVE with Connor and Isobel and are constantly seen with them as a family unit. Nicole Kidman rarely sees her first children, not even at Christmas.
