Now, a source has revealed that Russell Crowe has been an immense point of support for Nicole, calling him a ‘total rock.’ The insider told National Enquirer that the Gladiator actor has been on the phone with Nicole almost every day. They claimed he has been helping her ‘pick up the pieces’ as she ‘rebuilds her life.’ (Picture: Getty Images)
However, the source insisted that Russell and Nicole’s relationship is simply platonic. They said: ‘They’re strictly friends. He’s just very concerned about her because he knows her marriage was everything to her.’ The insider added that there’s ‘nothing romantic’ between them, and that Russell has ‘helped to steady’ her. ‘She really values having a man’s perspective on things, and she’s so grateful.’ (Picture: Getty Images)
Nicole and Russell’s friendship goes back decades. The pair first met in 1992 at a party hosted by Naomi Watts. Nicole was married to Tom Cruise at the time. The Practical Magic star opened up about their friendship back in 2018, when they starred together in the film Boy Erased. (Picture: Getty Images)
She told the Courier Mail: ‘I have an enormous amount of love and affection for him because we have been friends literally our whole life. I think it’s an admirable thing when you forge your way through, decade after decade.’ (Picture: Getty Images)
As for Nicole and Keith, the pair were together for 20 years, and married for 19. They first met in January 2005 at the G’Day USA gala in Los Angeles, an event that celebrates Australians in Hollywood. Sparks immediately flew, and they tied the knot just over a year later in June 2006. The star-studded wedding took place at St. Patrick’s Estate in Sydney and was attended by their closest family and friends, including Naomi and Russell. (Picture: Getty Images)
Nicole and Keith went on to welcome two daughters together: Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14. The divorce papers revealed some surprising custody arrangements, most notably that Nicole will have 306 days with their girls, while musician Keith will have just 59. The Grammy winner’s time with the kids will be 10am on Saturdays until 6pm on Sundays every other weekend. They will live with their Oscar-winning mum the rest of the time. (Picture: Getty Images)
Despite Nicole filing for divorce, a source told People magazine that she had been ‘fighting to save the marriage,’ and didn’t instigate the split. ‘She didn’t want this,’ they told the publication. (Picture: Getty Images) Add Metro as a Preferred Source on Google Add as preferred source
