Tom Cruise Eager To Marry And Have Kids


Hollywood heart-throb TOM CRUISE wants to get married and have more children - but has no plans to wed girlfriend Penélope Cruz yet. The Top Gun (1986) hero divorced his second wife NICOLE KIDMAN in August (2001) and says he loves being a father to their two adopted children.

Cruise, who stars in VANILLA SKY (2001) opposite Cruz, says he is now speaking to the MOULIN ROUGE (2001) actress, suggesting that the bitterness over their split had eased. Tom says he wants to marry again, "I'd like to one day, but there are no plans in the future. I want a relationship. I mean, I'm in a relationship, but you know, marriage - right now there are no plans for that. "

Spanish actress Cruz, has moved into the actor's Beverly Hills, America home and spent Christmas skiing with him at his Colorado, America ranch. Tom enjoys being a single father to Connor and Isabella, his two adopted children with Kidman, saying "Nic and I talk about things, and stuff comes up. I'd like to have more kids, but I hesitate saying this because they're going to start saying, 'He's having a kid now'. That's not happening. " (JLM/WNWCAN/CPT)
