When news broke that Nicole Kidman had finalized her divorce from Keith Urban in Tennessee, fans immediately began wondering what the next chapter might look like for the Oscar-winning actress. However, while the ink may be dry on the paperwork, sources say Nicole isn’t navigating this emotional season alone. Enter John Travolta.
As Nicole Kidman quietly recalibrates post-divorce life in Tennessee, insiders say she’s been leaning on John Travolta for support. And apparently, their connection has grown stronger in recent months.
“He’s someone who really knows how to listen, and she knows she can trust him to keep everything she says in confidence. They talk quite a lot now; it’s very sweet and means a lot to Nicole that he cares enough to show his support by checking in,” a source shared.
Nicole Kidman Grows Close To John Travolta Following Tennessee Divorce With Keith Urban
Travolta, having spent decades under the Hollywood microscope himself, reportedly understands the unique strain that comes with public heartbreak. “John understands better than most what it’s like to have your private life pulled apart in public, he’s able to give her a lot of great advice on how to get through this.”
“People in John’s world are starting to question whether he’s got a crush on Nicole because he’s always so upbeat after they have their chats,” the insider revealed. “He denies it and insists she’s just a wonderful friend but it has people talking.”
Of course, there’s the delicate layer involving Tom Cruise, Nicole’s ex-husband and John’s one-time Scientology contemporary. But according to Heat World sources, there’s no looming drama there. “John and Tom are cordial but they are by no means close friends so there’s no worry about offending him. Plus, Tom and Nicole are actually on very good terms these days, so he isn’t going to take issue with this.”
Still, romance rumors aside, what seems most clear is that Nicole values this friendship deeply. “Nicole doesn’t have a lot of close friends. She’s got plenty of working relationships but only a handful of people she really trusts and John is in that small circle.”
Travolta Has Experience With Loss
Sources also claim John has been gently encouraging her to slow down. “John has actually been encouraging her to take some more downtime, he thinks she’s packing her schedule from morning until night so she can avoid having to face her feelings over her divorce.”
Travolta may be a great person to talk to when it comes to navigating deep emotional lows in life. The actor has had several tragedies befall him during his career, including the death of his wife, his son, and several other loved ones.
For now, it seems that Nicole Kidman sees John Travolta as a source of friendship and support as she continues to figure out life following her Tennessee divorce with Keith Urban. However, all eyes will certainly be on the pair going forward.
