Nicole Kidman, known for her captivating performances on-screen, provided a rare glimpse into her private life this week as she shared an intimate moment with her husband, Keith Urban. The couple, who reside in Nashville with their two daughters, demonstrated their love and closeness in a candid studio photograph.
In the image, the “Big Little Lies” actress joined Keith in his studio, where he strummed his electric guitar while she immersed herself in a book. Kidman radiated elegance in an all-white ensemble, her hair styled in a chic top knot. What caught the eye of fans was her decision to embrace her natural waves, eschewing the straightened look often seen during her red carpet appearances.
Nicole Kidman is renowned for her chameleon-like ability to transform her appearance to suit various roles, from portraying Virginia Woolf in “The Hours” to Lucille Ball in “Being the Ricardos.” However, in recent years, particularly during the lockdown period, Kidman has increasingly celebrated her natural waves, a departure from the years of straightening she subjected her hair to in her youth.
In candid conversations with the press, Kidman confessed to regretting the excessive use of straighteners, lamenting the loss of her beloved natural curls. She expressed her desire to reclaim her “beach girl” waves, stating, “I had that hair. I shouldn’t have abused my hair. I loved that hair. What was I thinking? I’m working on getting that hair again.”
It seems that Kidman’s daughters have inherited her wavy hair genes as well. The actress is a loving mother to four children, including adopted children Isabella Cruise, 30, and Connor Cruise, 28, from her previous marriage to Tom Cruise, as well as daughters Sunday, 15, and Faith, 12, with her husband, Keith.
In a recent interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Kidman opened up about her approach to motherhood, revealing her preference for a quieter life centered around her work and family. She shared, “[I do] not have a big social life. I have my work, I have my family, I have my own inner landscape that I explore. I choose that probably more than I choose to be out partying.”
While Kidman and Urban’s younger daughters, Sunday and Faith, are primarily shielded from the spotlight, they have made occasional forays into their mother’s world, securing roles as extras in some of Kidman’s projects, including “The Undoing” and “Big Little Lies.”
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, both accomplished artists in their own right, have been navigating their busy professional lives with an appreciation for the precious moments they spend together. The couple divides their time between their homes in Nashville and Sydney, Australia.
Reflecting on their journey, Keith Urban shared the serendipitous beginning of their love story, saying, “Somebody had given me her number, and I had it in my pocket for a while. I kept looking at it thinking, ‘If I call this number, she’s going to answer. I don’t know what [to] say.’ I wasn’t in a very healthy place in my life … I’d never have thought she’d see anything in a guy like me. But, at some point, I plucked up the courage to [dial] those numbers, and she answered, and we started talking. And we talked and talked and talked and talked, and it was effortless.” Their enduring love story continues to captivate fans worldwide.
