If you didn’t know, Nicole Kidman shares two daughters, Sunday Rose, 16, and Faith, 14, with her country music star husband, Keith Urban. She also has two older kids (Bella, 32, Connor, 30) with someone named Tom Cruise.
During a recent interview with Allure, the 57-year-old actress revealed she’s very close with her teenager daughters:
Yeah, I’m very close to both my girls. I sit on their beds and discuss the most intimate things; I get to be their guide. If they want to tell me to be quiet, they can. I’m able to apologize to them. I’m able to stand up to them. I very much like the relationship we have. It’s nice to be able to say that.
Sounds like the ideal parenting relationship! You want them to feel safe enough to come to you with difficult subjects, much like they would a best friend, but you also want them to respect you and be able to discipline them when needed.
She doesn’t talk as much about her older kids, but that’s to be expected. They’re both grown adults and are off living their own lives, although, some sources say she doesn’t have much of a relationship with them.
Especially with Connor, who is deep into Scientology like his father. Scientology tells its members not to have a relationship with non-members, so we’re willing to bet he doesn’t talk to his mom a lot.
