If you would have told me when Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban got married that they were going to last over five years I wouldn’t have believed you. I know that sounds mean, but Keith went to rehab shortly after he was married and we heard some stories about his hard-partying ways. He didn’t seem ready to sober up and settle down, but he did it anyway. Keith now seems like a very devoted husband and father, and he must consider himself lucky to have such a great family.
That’s just a preface to these photos of Nicole and Keith at the airport in Sydney yesterday with their two daughters. They have daughter Sunday Rose, three and a half, and daughter Faith Margaret, 14 months. Faith was born via gestational carrier but I would guess she’s biologically Nicole’s as she looks just like her sister and her mom. Look at those ginger curls. Those girls are precious and I can’t believe how big Sunday is! We hardly ever see her and it looks like she grew up overnight. She’s so tall and I would have guessed that she’s older.
The family was in Australia partially for Keith’s job as a judge on the Australian version of The Voice. They also have family and friends in Australia, as the Daily Mail notes, and surely paid some visits while they were there.
I love Nicole’s dress and would like to own a cheaper version of it. The nude-tone underlay gives the illusion that you can see through it by some angles, which adds a little sexiness to it. It’s a very pretty dress and looks comfortable for traveling.
What a nice looking family they are. They look very happy and relaxed and I see a lot of pride on Keith’s face. Who knew?

Haha! You couldn’t help yourself, bite me, could you?
Well, the daughters are obviously Nicole’s, for a while, I too thought that the eldest was actually by Nicole’s sister Antonia. Who is a brunette. But obviously, the eldest takes after her mother, not only eyes, skin tone, and hair color, but she is going to be a tall one as well!
And @CB, when you say that you didn’t think “they were going to last more than 5 years”, I think you were mistaken with KatiE Holmes’ contract with Tom C.
BTW, Ortega had quite the stinging open letter to Tommy on Feb. 15th. Not only it links up to all past court appearances of formerly defected members, and highlights the tortures and proofs of torture, but it also demands that Tom Cruise, the outside representative for the church (Debbie Cook used to be the inside rep), answers publicly the many legal hiccups the church is going through right now (child slavery, torture, and not to say the least, hiding substantial amounts from the IRS). It is quite the nice read that resumes all the goings-on right now.

Bleh. I think that dress is ghastly. Especially with those shoes- Only Nicole and my mother are still sportin’ those kitten heels. The girls are adorable though-

Awww no way Marjalane! Kitten heels are where it’s at!!!And I’m not even 30 yet so it’s not an age thing, it’s a tall lady thing. I rather be able to walk and run after my kid then break my neck teetering on 6-8inch toothpicks. Besides that, I don’t like looking a head taller then the crowd.

perfect for those of us walkers who want a little lift without sore feet.

Kitten heels are the only type a heel I can wear without making a complete ass out of myself.

I love kitten heels and the dress, but I tend to wear things that have a vintage feel (or are actually from the thrift store.) I am short with muscular legs, and with kitten heels I can get some lift and tone while still being able to run around town.

Cute kids, and they definitely look alike. They don’t look too thrilled by the paparazzi, but at least they don’t get hounded too much.

Thanks for explaining that dress, I was trying to figure out if it was really see through or not. Thank god for those panels, keeps it classy.

cute family, except she does have two other children that seem to have been erased from her life. i can’t blame scientology 100% for that. even the fact that she chooses to live in a different city from her other children speaks volumes.

Crap. I CAN blame scientology, and their father. What? She’s supposed to live in the past, and in their neighbourhood, pathetically hoping adult children who have been emotionally and physically distant will “come around”? She’d be nothing but a pathetic stalker. No, the only healthy thing to do is live her own life, and welcome them if they come out of the cult and want to develop a relationship.
Leave her to enjoy her life. God knows she deserves it after what she must have gone through.

Agree 100%. They are old enough to make their own decisions.

Good lord. $cientology is the whole reason why she can’t be with her other kids. Remember the shut out policy? Yeah, that.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Ummm, no. Scientology IS to blame (along with Daddy-O). Do you really think if those children were raised without the yoke of Scientology, she would have not been around? But they WERE raised with the yoke Scientology and were cut off from her. What would you have her do–stand by hoping for a phone call or something here and there?!
Sometimes you have to move on and live your life. She’s doing it, and doing it with a lovely family.

As per Scientology rules, adepts of that church cannot be in contact with a defector of that particular faith, such as Nicole.
Nicole was opposed to Scientology, and had in the beginning shared custody of the kids with Tom. However, the kids have been raised in Scientology, and as soon they were “conscious” of their decisions in life, they had followed the rules (or forced to?), and cut any contact with their mother.
Sad, but true.
Here is a link to the last Ortega open letter to Tom Cruise. Reading it might teach you a bit more on that church, for it also includes old links related to past legal problems with scientology, and treatment of TC and NK.

Yes, the girls are adorable, and yes they all seem very happy. But could these photos be more contrived? The papps just happened to catch them at the Sydney airport? And this is what Nicole and her 2 little girls are wearing for that god-awful, long flight? And where’s their “stuff” to entertain them? the car seats? The whole thing is fakety-fake.
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Contrived? Yes, she knows she’ll be papped. But what’s wrong with wanting your children to look nice? For presenting your family at their best?
As for what they’re wearing I imagine they are on a private plane and she can pop them into jammies once in the air. Someone behind them is trundling along with their carry ons, I sure don’t think they ever lug their own stuff.
She has a lovely family. Why can’t she take pride in that?
Nobody wins in this. She gets criticized for dressing her kids up, the Jolie Pitts get criticized because their kids look like they dressed in a thrift shop. No matter what anyone does they get criticized. I’m damn glad I’m not famous!

I still know a lot of people who dress up to go ride in a plane. Not I, now, but I vividly remember in the 70s my mother buying us special churchy “nice” clothes to wear to the airport.

And your small children are dressed up this way as well? Please. I’m all for not looking like a slob. But this is such an obvious set-up.

Nicole looks happiest when she is with her kids! They all look soooo good. But I can’t help it every time I see her with her daughters it raises all those nosy questions: thats its kind of weird she never sees her other kids…does she miss them…why did her and Tom not have biological kids….blah blah blah…its just so shrouded in mystery.

Such a lovely family. And she’s such a devoted mom! I don’t understand how she could leave Connor and Isabel when I look at these pictures. She seems like she’d rather die than let someone take her kids from her, not even being shunned would stop her. Why was it so different with the other kids?

You must not know anything about his cult. Once you are named a suppressive person you are dead to them. The only reason they can’t cut Nicole out completely is because she IS their mother. I imagine even they demand to see her a little. But belive me, their time is very limited and they are audited out the wazoo when they come back. I doubt they enjoy any of it.

I know that but keeping her from her kids was still illegal. She could have taken them to court if she wanted and gotten custody of her kids. Seeing as there is enough evidence to suggest the questionable behaviour of CO$, I believe she could have won.

Have you EVER heard of anyone taking on scientology and winning? No, she was lucky to get out in one piece, and there was NO way for her to take those children. We’re not discussing a normal run-of-the-mill divorce and litigation here. Those are traumatic enough. Scientology is a scary cult.

exactly jaxx- even for her wedding to Keith Connor and Isabella were flown in right before the wedding and flown right back out as soon as it was over

Hi Asli – $cientology is a dangerous organization. They do illegal things and have, for decades. They get away with it because of their special lawyers and $cilons employed with the police and tax offices. They are very scary and you don’t want to cross them. Luckily though, some very brave people and countries are taking them on and I hope they smash this group. They are horrible – put nothing past them.
If you want to see what they’ve done, check out: http://www.xenu.net/
It’ll take awhile (the list of illegal activities and coverups is VERY LONG), but it’s worthwhile to understand what a danger they are.

I love that fourth picture. You know Nicole tells them, Just don’t look at the bad camera people sweetie, act like they aren’t even there. But Sunday can’t help but give them the side eye there but she looks guilty doing it. They are both precious!
She is such a loving mother and I get so mad when people slam her about her other kids. She has no choice about that. She was named a suppressive person and cut off. I blame her kids for not making more of a stink about it, but they seem to be as brainwashed as their dad. She’s lucky she sees them EVER and she gets blamed.

Nicole looks like she has put on weight, healthy. Nice to see a happy family. Nicole must have felt imprisoned with Tommy Boy, has true love with Keith. Lovely family.

You’re right. A little bit of weight gain. It really softens her up and makes her look younger. That, and being with her sweet little girls. Good on you, Nicole.

I never used to like her. Then she and Tom divorced . . . and, then, I was kind of indifferent about her.
And now I actually kind of like her.
I think she handled her divorce with Mr. Glib very well. And I didn’t end up feeling like she was a “victim.”
And now it looks like she’s definitely gone on to be the better for it (like things wouldn’t get better for anyone after getting away from that creep).
Good for her!

Connor and Isabella were only 6 & 8 when Cruise dropped the divorce bomb. They were hardly old enough to make any decision in the matter. And, as others have said, you don’t argue with the Scientology cult. Not only are they worth billions, they’re down right dangerous.
Nicole and Keith were the winners in this situation and both seem to realize that fact. To all the nay sayers who said she’d never hold him – don’t under estimate the power of a redhead.
