Nic has opened up on her ill-fated marriage to Tom Cruise.

The 48-year-old is now happily married to Keith Urban, but she has no regrets about her past loves.

“Any time you have a chance at something again is good, but each combination of people is different,” she candidly told The Evening Standard about the difference between her two marriages.

“I was a baby when I married Tom, but I don’t regret any of it.”

The mum-of-four then told the paper she didn’t want to comment further about her past relationship, “out of respect for Keith,” before adding, “Be the best you can be, not the worst, and think of the children.”

In the past Nicole has briefly touched on her relationship with Tom. In 2012, during his divorce from Katie Holmes, Nicole spoke to Who magazine about her experience as Mrs Tom Cruise.

“I don’t regret that because it got me Bella and Connor, and I did have a fantastic marriage for a long period.”
