'We are committed to working together as parents': Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes reach divorce settlement behind closed doors - as she gets 'sole custody' of Suri
- Tom will still get significant custodial time with his daughter
- Agreement lists restrictions on what pair can tell Suri about religion - including Scientology
The pair have reportedly been friends since 2006, when Holmes, 33, married Cruise. Kidman, 45, divorced the Top Gun actor in 2001 after 11 years, but has two adopted children with him – Isabella, 19 and Connor 17.
"They've spoken over the last few weeks," a source told . "Nicole has been supportive, saying she's been through it too and to hang in there."
When Holmes' and Cruise's marriage became beyond repair and there were increasing concerns over the future and well-being of their six-year-old daughter Suri, she turned to Kidman for advice.
"Nicole offered her support and help", the source added.
The couple reached a private settlement just 11 days after Holmes filed for divorce, avoiding a full-blown court battle as well as detailed exposure of the actor's links to Scientology.
