Connor Cruise and mother Nicole Kidman have a "solid" relationship.

The 19 year old DJ insisted rumours he is estranged from the Australian actress, who adopted him with then-husband Tom Cruise in 1995  are wide off the mark and says his family mean "everything" too him.

He told Australia's Woman's Day magazine: "I love my mum. I don't care what people say. I know that me and mum are solid. I love her a lot. My family means everything. Yeah, I love my music, but the family comes before everything else."

It has previously been claimed that Connor and his sister Isabella, 21, have a strained relationship with their mother because of their ties to the Church of Scientology and Nicole, who has children Sunday, five, and Faith, three, with husband Keith Urban even admitted they don't call her "mom" anymore.

Speaking in 2007, she said: "My kids don't call me mommy, they don't even call me mom. They call me Nicole, which I hate and tell them off for it."

She has also spoken of her sadness that the children opted to live with Tom after they separated in 2001.

She said: "They live with Tom, which was their choice. I'd love them to live with us, but what can you do?"
