Tom Cruise reportedly bars Nicole Kidman from son's wedding

Tom Cruise has reportedly banned Nicole Kidman from attending their 24-year-old son Connor's wedding.

Connor Cruise is due to marry his Italian girlfriend Silvia in a Scientologist ceremony, and a source has told RadarOnline that his father has demanded that Kidman does not attend the wedding.

The source also said that Connor "worships the ground his father walks on", and that he follows his wishes closely.

They said Cruise "would never even consider inviting Nicole to Connor's wedding because she's considered a 'suppressive person' by the church — and, second, he doesn't want her there".

Kidman and Cruise married in 1990 and adopted Connor and a daughter, Isabella.

Cruise retained custody of both kids when the pair split in 2001. Both kids were reportedly already devout Scientologists and chose to stay with their father.

In an interview with Who magazine last year, Kidman issued a rare statement about her relationship with Connor and Isabella.

"I'm very private about all that. I have to protect all those relationships. I know 150 per cent that I would give up my life for my children because it's what my purpose is," she said.

"They are able to make their own decisions. They have made choices to be Scientologists and, as a mother, it's my job to love them."
