Nicole Kidman ‘clinging to hope’ that her adopted children with ex Tom Cruise will attend upcoming AFI ceremony to see her receive Life Achievement Award

Nicole Kidman is reportedly hoping to have all her children present when she is handed the Life Achievement Award at the The American Film Institute (AFI) ceremony on June 10. 

Touted by the institute as ‘America’s highest honor for a career in film’ Nicole will be the first Australian actor to be given the nod.

The 55-year-old is reportedly hoping to have all her children present, including her two adopted kids with ex-husband Tom Cruise, Connor, 28, and Bella, 30.

‘Nicole knows Connor is extremely loyal to his dad so she doesn’t expect him to come, but the invitation is there for both of them,’ an alleged source tells New Idea. 

‘It’s an event they have every right to celebrate along with the rest of Nicole’s family,’ they continued.

‘Nicole is trying to limit her expectations, but is clinging to hope Bella might make it’. 

Daily Mail Australia has reached out to representatives for Nicole Kidman for comment.  

Isabella, known as Bella, and Connor, are the only children Tom, 60, and Nicole, 55, share together.

Connor was adopted by Kidman and the action star not long after he was born in 1995, but the exact timeline remains unclear.

Sister Isabella was adopted by the couple three years earlier in 1992.
