Nicole Kidman has been one of the most acclaimed actresses of this generation. This Australian actress enjoyed much of the nineties starring in several art house successes, such as To Die For and Eyes Wide Shut, alongside then-hubby Tom Cruise. Kidman then had a huge mainstream success with Moulin Rouge, for which she was nominated for an Oscar. It was no surprise then when she took home many awards, including the Oscar, in 2003 for her portrayal of Virginia Woolf in The Hours. But these days Kidman is happily staying at home in Nashville, not working as much and being a good wife and mother.
The pair married in 2006, but not without a sequence of elaborate pre-wedding festivities, including some fabulous bachelor and bachelorette parties. Their wedding was held in North Sydney at a chapel overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Sydney Harbor. They even decorated the chapel with white freesias, gardenias and carnations. Of course, Nicole’s style was classic and certainly the talk of all the guests. Kidman arrived in a cream-colored 1948 Rolls Royce, wearing a simple ivory tulle wedding dress designed by Nicolas Ghesquiere for Balenciaga. She walked down the aisle carrying a simple bouquet of white roses. The couple also asked for no gifts at their wedding, but for guests to donate to the Sydney Children’s Hospital. Kidman’s wedding ring featured three huge diamonds surrounded by several smaller diamonds.
The couple has had their ups and downs, with Urban having a stint in rehab. But these days Kidman happily announces that the couple never spend more than three days apart. “I think I’ve reached a point in my life where I’ve slowed down a lot, so it’s not difficult. My priority is very much keeping my family together and not being away from them.” Kidman says.
Kidman and Urban had a child in 2008, named Sunday Rose. A friend exudes, “She’s never been healthier. She is absolutely radiant and enjoying nesting and homemaking with Keith at their new home in Nashville.”
