E Street star Marcus Graham reveals he was left heartbroken and crying for days after Nicole Kidman left him for Tom Cruise as he speaks about their romance for the first time: ‘I was hurt and confused’
Marcus Graham has spoken out for the first time about his relationship with Nicole Kidman.
The E Street star, 59, told Woman’s Day, he dated the Hollywood actress, 56, when they were in their early 20s.
But he was heartbroken when Nicole left him for Tom Cruise after they met and fell in love on the set of Days of Thunder.
‘I was devastated and heartbroken but that’s the way it goes… Why would I want to keep her in Australia and lock her away?’ Marcus said.
‘I don’t have any bad feelings there and I understand. At the time I cried for a long time. I was really hurt and confused but I had lots to learn about the world.’

Despite their relationship ending, Marcus admitted he has ‘nothing bad to say about Nicole’.
Nicole and Tom went on to tie the knot in 1990 just months after their first meeting.
But they separated in 2001 after 12 years of marriage amid rumours his commitment to Scientology had driven a wedge between them.
The couple adopted two children, daughter Isabella Jane in 1992 and son Connor Antony in 1995, but never had any biological children.
