LONDON: Nicole Kidman has reportedly telephoned Katie Holmes to encourage her to go ahead with her wedding to Tom Cruise. Nicole, who was married to Cruise for 10 years, made the call after hearing that Katie was nervous about walking down the aisle with Tom.

A source told Britain’s Grazia magazine: “Nicole has made sure that she has told Katie how pleased she is they’re getting married. She’s alleviated some of Katie’s worries about what it’s like being married to Tom and urged her to go ahead with the wedding. Nicole usually minds her own business, but she made an exception in this case.” The source added: “Nicole called Katie and they had a friendly chat, during which she said Tom had been a great, supportive husband for 10 years and she shouldn’t listen to any gossip about him that suggests otherwise.”
