‘Bella burst out laughing and told Nicole she was being a badass!’ She’s spoken candidly about her emotional split from Tom Cruise, revealing just how difficult it was to come to terms with the end of their marriage. But when it comes to her adopted kids Bella and Connor, Nicole Kidman has, for the most part, remained tight-lipped. Both children chose to live with Tom, 54, when the pair divorced in 2001, and speculation has persisted that Nicole was banned from seeing them because of their commitment to Scientology. Tom is a devout member but Nicole walked away from the religion after their divorce. Despite these rumours, Nicole, 49, has remained adamant that she’s still close to Bella, 23, and Connor, 21, insisting they’ve stayed in regular contact. Worlds apart…

‘William tended to be sly, whereas Harry was much more open’ While Prince Harry’s penchant for beautiful women and his love of partying have earned him a reputation for being a wild child, older brother Prince William has always been considered sensible, mature and level-headed, and has done all he can to prove he’ll make a reliable and respected ruler. But in a shock report last week, William’s suitability for the role of future king came into question, as one of the people closest to the prince in his early years spoke out about his less-than-desirable traits.
