Six nominations were given to Top Gun: Maverick by Tom Cruise at the 95th Academy Awards, or Oscars 2023, which took place in Los Angeles. As per rumours, the Hollywood star did not attend the award ceremony. As per rumours, he wanted to avoid getting into a fight with his ex-wife Nicole Kidman. 

As you may know, Nicole and Tom Cruise married in 1990 but separated in 2001. Their adoption of two children, Isabella and Connor, profoundly impacted the actress, but now things have resolved themselves. Despite Top Gun: Maverick being nominated for six Academy Awards, the actor still needs to attend the most awaited 2023 Oscars on 12th March.

He did not attend the event on purpose, according to a source. Regarding the Oscars, Top Gun: Maverick took home Best Sound, according to the source. Tom was not at the event because she was there, and he did not want to run into her. In a report, a source close to Cruise said it was nothing personal and had nothing to do with Nicole Kidman. 

Cruise missed the awards ceremony due to scheduling issues, and the decision was not made on purpose. For the record, Tom Cruise is a member of the Church of Scientology, and fans speculated that Nicole Kidman and Cruise split because she refused to belong to it as a Scientologist.

It has been a happy marriage for Nicole Kidman

Though the couple separated years ago, the actor chose to keep the reasons for their split hidden from the public eye. The report quotes him saying, "She knows why, and I know why, because she's the mother of my children, and I want her the best." And I think you move on. And I don't say that lightly. I don't say it with any sense of bitterness." 

In life, things happen, and we do everything we can, and we do everything we can, but there comes the point in life when we have to accept brutal reality." In contrast to Tom Cruise, who is currently unmarried, Nicole Kidman has been happily married to singer Keith Urban for 16 years. She looked ravishing in an all-black shiny gown with her husband by her side, complementing her in every way.
