Nicole Kidman and her husband, Keith Urban, just celebrated their 17th wedding anniversary.
Kidman found love with Urban after going through a difficult divorce from Tom Cruise.
Doctors had told her she might not be able to have children, but she beat the odds and welcomed her miracle baby.
The talented actress Nicole Kidman and her musician husband, Keith Urban, recently marked their 17th anniversary with a heartfelt post on Instagram to celebrate the special moment.
In another sweet post for Father’s Day, Kidman shared a picture of Urban playing with one of their daughters in the water, calling him the “coolest dad” and expressing how much she and their daughters love him.
Before finding happiness with Urban, Kidman was married to Tom Cruise for over a decade. Their relationship began when Cruise cast her in his movie, “Days of Thunder.” Kidman admitted she fell in love with him instantly, and they lived in their own little world, depending on each other.
Cruise and Kidman got married in 1990, but after 10 years together, they shocked everyone by announcing their divorce. Kidman was surprised, as the couple had just renewed their vows two months earlier. Cruise never gave a clear reason for ending the marriage, only saying, “Nic knows why.”
During their marriage, Kidman faced two miscarriages, one at the beginning of their relationship and another near the end. Doctors later told her she had a slim chance of conceiving. The miscarriages, combined with the sudden divorce, were traumatic for her, and she struggled to heal from it all.
Although they never had biological children together, Cruise and Kidman adopted two kids, Isabella, born in 1992, and Connor, born in 1995.
At 40, Kidman found love again with Urban and fell pregnant. The couple met at an event in Los Angeles in 2005, and Kidman said Urban made her feel secure and cared for. They married in 2006 and started their family in Nashville, which became even more special when their first daughter, Sunday, was born in 2008.
Kidman described her pregnancy at 40 as life-changing, calling it a “miracle.” She openly talks about her experience to help other women who may have struggled like her.
Two years after Sunday’s birth, the couple welcomed their second daughter, Faith, via a surrogate. Having children later in life motivated Kidman to stay healthy so she could care for them as they grow up.
Despite becoming a mother later in life, Kidman continues to work hard in her career. She balances being a successful actress with being the best mother and wife she can be.
NFL reporter confirms passing of 2-year-old daughter after cancer diagnosis
Reporter for the NFL Doug Kyed disclosed that his daughter, who was two years old, died nine months after receiving a devastating diagnosis of leukemia.
Little Hallie Kyed reportedly suffered the devastating blow in April 2023. Doug, her father and a Boston Herald employee, announced on Instagram that his daughter had lost her battle in January 2021.
After Hallie underwent a bone marrow transplant and relapsed, Kyed disclosed that things had become worse.
Doug writes, “On Sunday morning, while Jen and I were holding her hands in bed, Hallie passed away peacefully in her sleep.””Without Hallie, we’re sad and totally lost. Never again will our lives be the same.
Doug stated in a letter after Hallie’s relapse that the family was making an effort to maintain optimism in spite of the clear challenges facing his daughter.The reporter stated at the time, “I’m choosing to stay positive.”
“Hallie has overcome every challenge that AML has set in her path thus far. This will undoubtedly be her hardest test yet, but our spirited little Hallie Bear is more than capable of taking it on.
Nevertheless, Doug acknowledged that “we held out hope for remission because of how brave, strong, and resilient Hallie had been through her entire nine-month battle with acute myeloid leukemia and all of its complications,” adding that “the whole family spent special time at the hospital last week.” Doug added, “Knowing the prognosis was poor when she relapsed after her bone marrow transplant.”
Acute myeloid leukemia, according to the American Cancer Society, begins in the bone marrow and swiftly spreads to the blood. After that, it may spread to the central nervous system, liver, spleen, and lymph nodes.
Doug told the Boston Herald that since his daughter’s diagnosis last year, he had spent over half of his nights at Boston’s Children Hospital.
He clarified, “My wife and I have alternated between taking care of Hallie and our 5-year-old, Olivia, at home.
Jen, Doug’s wife, on the other hand, said that losing her daughter left a void in her heart.
Jen Kyed said, “There is an enormous hole in my heart, and the pain is unbearable.” “I’ll never be able to comprehend how or why something so terrible could occur.”
