The gorgeous pictures that will help you get to know Nicole Kidman’s children

“From the minute Tom and I were married, I wanted to have babies. And we lost a baby early on, so that was really very traumatic. And that’s when we would adopt Bella,” Kidman told Vanity Fair in 2007.

Isabella and Connor have famously remained deeply involved in Scientology alongside their dad, Tom Cruise, a decision that Kidman supports.

“I’m very private about all that. I have to protect all those relationships. I know 150 per cent that I would give up my life for my children because it’s what my purpose is,” Kidman told WHO Magazine.

“They are adults. They are able to make their own decisions. They have made choices to be Scientologists and as a mother, it’s my job to love them.”

Antonia Kidman and Isabella Kidman Cruise arrive at St Patrick’s College for the wedding of Urban and Kidman in 2006.

Isabella married IT consultant Max Parker in 2015 in an intimate ceremony.

Isabella launched her own T-shirt line, Bella Kidman Cruise.

“It’s very exciting,” Nicole said of Bella’s line. “I think it’s such a great way to express and Bella is a beautiful drawer as well, she’s always been able to draw.”

In 2023, Bella shared a rare photo of herself to her Instagram stories, marking the end of Summer.

“I got married really fast and really young,” Kidman told WHO.

“But I don’t regret that because it got me Bella and Connor and I did have a fantastic marriage for a long period.”

Kidman is supportive of Isabella and Connor searching for their birth parents.

“It’s very much a part of the whole relationship, so it needs to be addressed [and] discussed,” she said in aThe Jess Cagle Interview. “I don’t know about other people’s lives, [but] as parents of adopted children, the advice [we were given] was, ‘If they want to find their birth parents, you support that.'”

“They are generous, kind and hardworking. And these are traits that I love to see in my children,” Nicole told Women’s Weekly.

Regarding the rumours that Kidman is not as close with her older children as she is with her younger children, Connor told Woman’s Day, “I love my mum. I don’t care what people say, I know that me and Mum are solid. I love her a lot.”

An accomplished DJ, Connor spoke about his music passion with People magazine in 2016.

Keen fisherman, Connor is a regular deep-sea fisherman, posting his catches on his Instagram account.

Actor, DJ and fisherman, Connor bases himself in Clearwater, Florida, near his father’s penthouse apartment and the headquarters of the Church of Scientology.

“When we were both alone, before we met each other, Sunday was the day we dreaded most, because when you don’t have someone in your life Sundays can be really lonely,” Kidman told Hello in 2010.

“Then when we met, we went from dreading Sunday to really loving it. It was the day when nobody was going to bother you, you could stay in bed, you could do what you wanted to do. We just thought, What a great name for our baby!”

After battling fertility issues, Kidman credits swimming in a lake during filming of Australia with blessing her with a pregnancy.

“There is something up there in the Kununurra water because we all went swimming in the waterfalls,” Kidman confessed on the Kyle and Jackie O Show, “So we can call it the fertility waters now.”

At 41, it’s more of a painful love,” Nicole told Elle magazine when discussing having children later in life.

“I look at that little girl and I’m like, ‘Oh, no, what’s going to happen?’ It’s almost like my heart is stretching; I’m feeling all the muscles stretch with emotion. It’s a beautiful love, but there’s a lot of fear and pain for her life, and for Bella and Connor’s life.”

On using a surrogate to have Faith Margaret, “Anyone that’s been in the place of wanting another child or wanting a child knows the disappointment, the pain and the loss that you go through trying and struggling … Fertility is such a big thing, and it’s not something I’ve ever run away from talking about,” Kidman said in a 60 Minutes interview in 2011.

“We were in a place of desperately wanting another child, and this opportunity arose for us, and I couldn’t get pregnant.”

Like mother, like daughters … Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret have both made their small-screen acting debut alongside mum in a new HBO series The Undoing.
