Tom & Nic To Be Neighbours

Nicole KidmanLet's hope that Katie Holmes isn't the sort of girl who has a problem with exes.

Because if she does, then she won't be happy that Nicole Kidman has just moved to the same neighbourhood as Tom Cruise.

After four years of being apart, Nic and Tom will almost be able to pop round to each other's houses to borrow a heaped spoonful of sugar, or something.

Tom has lived in his mansion in Beverly Hills for three years, but according to the Daily Mail, as soon as Nicole saw a property in the area was on the market, she bought it.

The couple, who were married for ten years, share custody of their two adopted children, Isabella, 12, and Connor, 10.

Nicole and Tom Cruise in 1998A source told the paper: "They put aside all their differences so that the children can be near to both parents.

"When Nicole recently saw that a house was on the market nearby she jumped at the chance.

"She was devastated after the break-up but she still has a very big bond with Tom and they know that living near each other is the best possible thing they can do for Connor and Bella."

And it seems that after a hectic couple of years which has seen her complete eight films, Nicole could be seeing more of her new home as she's decided to take it easy.

"You won't see me for a long time. It could be a year, it could be two. I'm not going to give you my holiday schedule, but there'll be a few. It'll be a while before I come back," she said.
