Tom tells Nicole: Dump drunk Keith

It’s not just Katie Holmes who hangs on to Tom Cruise’s every word. Apparently the actor still has quite an influence over his ex-wife, Nicole Kidman as well. Cruise recently convinced Kidman to drop her boyfriend of several months, country star, Keith Urban - at least for the time being.

A source told Australia’s NW, “[Tom] didn’t want Keith anywhere around because he was a drunk.� Cruise has advised Kidman to “Get rid of him for good,� the magazine claims. And Nicole has listened. She’s agreed to hold off on her romance with Keith until he shapes up. “She doesn’t want Keith around when he’s drinking,� one of Nicole’s pals says.

But the actress isn’t taking well to the break with Urban. An insider confesses, “Everybody’s worried about Nicole. She’s still in love with Keith and it’s breaking her heart to have to let him go. She’s lost at least eight pounds and all of her friends are very concerned. It’s like she’s lost her spirit and the will to go on. She felt Keith was her soul mate. [Nicole] feels betrayed by Keith falling off the wagon again. I know she’d take him back in a minute if he were to get himself sober and be willing to try harder.�
