Nicole Kidman Gets Personal
According to some celebrities, the key to keeping their sanity is privacy. And Nicole Kidman is one of those celebrities. However, in a recent interview, the Oscar-winning actress opened up (a little) about her personal life.
The first topic on Nicole’s list was her miscarriage with ex-husband Tom Cruise. The pair were married for nearly 10 years, and at the beginning of their marriage she had a tragic lost pregnancy. “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 (daughter) Bella.”
She went on to talk about how lonely she was the night she won the 2003 Best Actress Academy award for The Hours. “It felt big. It felt lonely and big. You’re in a hotel and you’re like, okay well, I’m sitting in this big suite with an Oscar, and I still don’t have a life. What is wrong with me? It hit home that I needed to get a life. Who do I jump on the bed with, and celebrate with, and order pancakes with?”
Kidman revealed that the thrill of such a prestigious award was temporary. “That was painful, not having that person to share it with. That’s why it was more for my mom and dad and my kids. But even the kids were young enough that they were like, ‘Oh, cool. Over. Move on. Not interested.’ “
As for her meeting her husband Keith Urban, the Eyes Wide Shut actress says it was a serendipitous occasion. “I think we were two lonely people. I would probably say that two very lonely people managed to meet at a time when they could open themselves to each other,” she says. “We were a mixture of frightened and brave.”
And regarding Urban’s rehab stint, just four months after their wedding, Kidman said, “It was very painful, deeply painful. We were in a very, very, very bad, painful place, and have managed to step through it, and I hope that gives some people some hope who may be in the same place. And that’s enough said. Anything else is overindulgent and unnecessary right now. And I think it jinxes it, in a way, and that’s why I don’t go on about my enormous feelings for this man.”
