Nicole Kidman Slams Tom Cruise?

"It's a pity they have been manipulated by the father to distance themselves from me," she told Heat.

Kidman - who is pregnant with her first child by second husband Keith Urban - added that she missed them and felt sad that they were apart.

The Aussie star had tried to arrange a Mother's Day visit but the kids ended up spending it with Tom and Katie, Metro reports.
