In 2023, the retired NFL player Derrick Brooks shared a rare photo of Tom with Connor and Bella in a Lightning hockey match of Tampa Bay, which marked the first time that the actor’s star was photographed with her children and Nicole in more than 15 years.
THE Babygirl The actress, whose Tom divorce was finalized in 2001 after more than 10 years of marriage, rarely spoke publicly about her relationship with Connor and Bella.
“I am very private about all of this,” Nicole said at Australian Magazine WHO In 2018. “I have to protect all these relationships.”
THE Moulin Rouge! Star added that Connor and Bella are “adults” who “are able to make their own decisions”, and this understands their participation in the religion they share with Tom.
“They made choices to be Scientologists and as a mother, it is my job to love them,” she said. “And I am an example of this tolerance and that is what I believe – no matter what your child does, the child has love and the child must know that there is available love and I am open here.”
