Keith Urban, who gave Nicole Kidman the greatest gift of becoming a mother to their two children after unsuccessful attempts to conceive with Tom Cruise, and they recently celebrated their 17th wedding anniversary.
The public divorce proceedings between Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise took place on a global stage. She continues to hold back on disclosing all the details of what exactly caused the breakup, though.
When Cruise was still married to Mimi Rogers, whom he divorced in 1990, they first met on the set of Days of Thunder. Cruise is an Oscar winner and the star of Mission Impossible.
The power couple of Hollywood, Kidman and Cruise, tied the knot in the same year. As a 23-year-old bride, Kidman acknowledges that her love for the action star completely overcame her.
He essentially swept me off my feet, and as happens when you fall in love, I was like, “Forget it. “This is it,” Kidman said of her relationship with Top Gun actor Tom Cruise. “I voluntarily allowed myself to be consumed by it. Having a child with him was my top priority. Whether or not we were married didn’t matter to me. “.
The Australian actor, who was born in Hawaii, and Cruise appeared in a few movies together, including Eyes Wide Shut (1999), Far and Away (1992), and Malice (1993), the latter of which told the story of a young couple attempting to have children.
Off-screen, the couple appeared to be a happy married couple who were trying to start a family. Kidman, who had two miscarriages with Cruise, said she wanted a family more than anything else, including a job.
“Ever since Tom and I got married, I’ve wanted kids. It was hard when we lost a baby early on. She explains in an interview, “That’s when we decided to adopt Bella.”.
“Given that I don’t talk much about many things, it has a complicated backstory. Maybe one day the story will be told. So that’s how it happened, and Bella was adopted when I was 25. “.
Connor (1995), born two years after Bella (1992), was adopted by Kidman and Cruise, a devout Scientologist.
In December 2000, the To Die For actress and her Maverick husband celebrated their tenth wedding anniversary.
We had a picture-perfect marriage, she said, “I thought.
But two months later, when Cruise abruptly broke up with her, saying only, “Nic knows why,” her entire world was upended. “.
Kidman’s representatives warned the actress that working with Cruise would be fatal to her career. You realize that your career is over once you marry Tom Cruise. She recalled being told, “You’re going to shoot yourself in the foot.
They were right; getting a divorce from Cruise was the best decision she could have made.
For her performance in Moulin Rouge (2001), the Golden Compass heroine earned her first Oscar nomination, and for 2002’s The Hours, she won her first Academy Award.
At G’Day LA, an occasion honoring Australians living in America, the stunning celebrity quickly found her happily ever after with one of country music’s hottest artists, Keith Urban, in 2005.
Regarding her and Urban’s early days, Kidman remarked, “We were very, very quiet about it and we managed to get through a long period without people knowing about us-which is pretty much our style still.”.
At the Grammy Awards in 2006, the gorgeous couple revealed they were getting married that June. The Australian-New Zealander country music performer signed up for a 90-day stay at the Betty Ford Clinic four months after their wedding.
“Being in a relationship with a person in recovery has given me a lot to learn. I would be more than happy to travel with him. She described their devoted and encouraging union to Vanity Fair by saying, “The two of us are very committed to our relationship.”.
“We were in a very, very, very awful, agonizing situation and we managed to get through it…That’s all there is to it.”. Anything else at this time would be excessive and unnecessary. And I don’t mention how much I love this man because I feel like it somehow jinxes things. “.
Now that they have recovered, Urban and Kidman spend time in Australia, California, New York, and Nashville, Tennessee.
The couple had their first “miracle” daughter Sunday Rose in 2006, just days after their second anniversary, despite being informed that she had slim chances of getting pregnant. At the time, Kidman was forty years old.
“I’ve found healing through having my child. “Having a child took me a very long time. I am so grateful beyond words. I feel very fortunate because of Sunday. Kidman exclaimed, “It’s a very personal thing, but she just has.
The couple continued to experience miracles as they welcomed their second daughter, Faith Margaret, via a gestational carrier two years later, in 2008.
Happy anniversary, my love,” Kidman and Urban, 55, wrote alongside a sensual Instagram selfie to mark their recent 17th wedding anniversary. “.
Congratulations on your anniversary!, “You two are adorable,” “Happy anniversary to a gorgeous pair,” and other supportive messages were written by admirers.
On Father’s Day earlier this month, Kidman shared a cute photo of Urban driving a go-kart with their kids. The caption reads, “Happy Father’s Day to the coolest dad there is! “.
Your ladies are very popular.
“.
Most of the fans commented with happy Father’s Day wishes, with some adding, “so sweet and very (hot)” and “so beautiful and precious.”. “.
Keith Urban fulfilled Nicole Kidman’s desire to start a family, and we are ecstatic that they have a happy ever after together.
We esteem them highly and wish them a happy anniversary and many more!
