Actress Nicole Kidman has opened up about the difficult time she had after her divorce from actor Tom Cruise in 2001.
During a sit-down at the Women in the World Summit here on Thursday, the Australian actress admitted that she tried to “get lost” in her movie characters to overcome the reality of life following her divorce, reports aceshowbiz.com.
After her divorce from Cruise, the actress received a lot of praise for her roles in movies including ‘Moulin Rouge!’ and ‘The Hours.’
Of whether or not her divorce unleashed her creativity, she said: “I was running from my life at that time. I wasn’t able to handle the reality of my life.” “As an actor, you have this wonderful thing where you can go and get lost in somebody else’s life and become somebody else for a period of time,” the Oscar-winning actress said.
