NICOLE KIDMAN CELEBRATES FAMILY AND FASHION IN SYDNEY
Nicole Kidman looked effortlessly stylish as she attended church with her husband, Keith Urban, and their daughter Faith last Sunday in Sydney. The 57-year-old actress wore a stunning white dress paired with beige flats and held onto a matching bag as they departed the service at the same church where she bid farewell to her mother, Janelle, just two months prior. Despite the challenging weeks following her mother's death, Kidman displayed her signature elegance, completing her look with dark sunglasses and her hair tied back.
Urban, also 57, joined her, sporting a navy shirt and black pants with sneakers, maintaining his own understated look with sunglasses. The couple, who also share daughter Sunday Rose, were seen leaving the church hand-in-hand with Faith, 13, who donned a simple yet lovely floral-print summer dress. The family is adjusting as they navigate their first Christmas without Janelle, who passed away at the age of 84 shortly before Kidman's moment of triumph at the Venice Film Festival.
Kicking off the holiday season, Kidman arrived back in Australia on Saturday, ready to reunite with her extended family for the festive season. It is a cherished tradition for her to return home for Christmas, and she and Urban often host lively New Year’s Eve celebrations at their stunning Sydney Harbour apartment. According to reports, the Kidman family has begun holiday reunions, having already enjoyed some festive time as her sister Antonia and her daughters visited them recently.
Kidman's personal life is only one facet of her multifaceted career. The actress was also recently spotted turning heads on the red carpet at the New York premiere of her Amazon Prime show, "Expats," wearing a breathtaking backless gown by Atelier Versace, complete with a thigh-high slit. The choice reinforced Kidman’s status as one of Hollywood's most stylish stars.
Reflecting on her enduring relationship with Urban, Kidman spoke candidly about how the couple keeps their romance alive, even after nearly two decades of marriage. “I like being asked out, which he still does,” Kidman remarked during an interview with People Magazine. “Seven nights ago, we went to dinner in New York. We love Japanese food, but I’m open to everything. I like not knowing where he’s going to take me. Surprise me, baby!”
Kidman revealed she feels deeply emotional about their relationship and shared her favorite song is “Once in a Lifetime,” which Urban recorded just five months after their wedding. “Keith wrote it for me when we were first getting married,” she reminisced.
Speaking of family, their daughters Sunday Rose and Faith are growing up quickly. Sunday, 16, and Faith, 13, often join their parents and have become central figures during the festive season. Kidman expressed her excitement for family gatherings, now more poignant than ever due to the loss they are processing together.
On the professional front, Kidman continues to impress audiences with her daring choices. Set to feature prominently this holiday season, the acclaimed actress will star alongside Antonio Banderas and Harris Dickinson in the film Babygirl, which opens on Christmas Day. The film's plot, revolving around forbidden romance and power dynamics, promises to intrigue moviegoers, and Kidman has admitted to some nerves about its release.
With such busy schedules, both Kidman and Urban prioritize their family life as well. Urban has revealed he always ensures special moments are set for his wife, keeping their connection strong through romantic gestures. Such feelings resonate particularly now, as they prepare to navigate new family traditions this Christmas.
Throughout her career, Kidman has consistently displayed exceptional talent and resilience, which has garnered her numerous prestigious awards, including the Volpi Cup at the Venice Film Festival this year. Her portrayal of emotionally charged characters has captivated audiences globally, with many eagerly anticipating her next project.
Looking forward, the month of December will mark both personal and emotional milestones for Kidman. Not only is she celebrating the festive holiday with her family, but she is also preparing to release Babygirl, continuing her legacy as one of Hollywood’s leading figures. Kidman succinctly sums up her year by expressing gratitude for her family, her successes, and the love she shares with Urban.
Indeed, as she steps out, whether it be at church or on the red carpet, Kidman carries with her the weight of her experiences and the love of her family, making her not just a star, but also undeniably relatable.
