As someone who has navigated the tumultuous waters of Hollywood relationships, I find it heartening to see such grace and maturity displayed by my peers. The bond between Naomi Watts and Nicole Kidman is truly remarkable, especially when they reach out to each other during sensitive situations like this one. It’s a testament to their friendship that transcends the complexities of personal relationships.


As a close confidante, I shared that before collaborating with my former partner and the father of my children, Liev Schreiber, my dearest friend Nicole Kidman extended a thoughtful gesture to touch base with me.

Nicole and Liev, 56, star in the new series The Perfect Couple.

She revealed that Nicole reached out to her before taking the role opposite her ex.

Naomi, aged 55, told Entertainment Weekly during the Toronto International Film Festival that they are constantly keeping in touch and have a strong friendship.

Adding: ‘That was very kind of her to do that.’

Nicole and Liev play a married couple in The Perfect Couple – which is on streamer Netflix.

The series is based on the book The Perfect Couple by Elin Hilderbrand. 

Naomi revealed during the interview she hadn’t yet but plans on watching it.

She excitedly shared, “I can’t wait to see this new release everyone is talking about. It just came out, only a couple of days ago.

‘I’m very much looking forward to it. I have seen the trailer. It looks fantastic.’ 

Naomi and Liev were in a relationship for 11 years, starting from 2005 up until their separation in 2016. However, despite being together for so long, they chose not to get married.

They are parents to two children: Sasha, 17, and Kai, 15.
