Actress Nicole Kidman has revealed that her dad, Anthony, was key in her being able to cope with her divorce from Tom Cruise.
Nicole said that her father's presence helped rejuvenate her during the troubled times.
"My father really stood by me at a tough time. He was strong and dignified, and I'm very grateful that I do have a good father, because having him there with me at that time put me in good stead for carrying on with my life and learning to trust again," News.com.au quoted Kidman as telling Britain's The Catholic Herald.
Kidman admits that her divorce from Cruise brought her closer to her father, who is a devout Catholic.
"When I was growing up, I was always much closer to my mother. Dad's a bit of a loner. He was always going off and reading books. But when I went through ... what I went through ... I found out who my father was,” she said.
"Because there comes a time when you're a daughter, that you suddenly need your father. And when you reach out for your father and he's there for you, well, that's a very special thing,” she added.
Nicole was indeed lucky to have a great dad to stand by her. She is now married to country singer, Keith Urban.
