Following her Oscar win in 2002, Nicole Kidman had an "epiphany" (via ET). She found the recognition she wanted and deserved, and realized it was time to tend to her personal life. She met Australian country star Keith Urban in 2005 at the G'Day USA gala, a Los Angeles event that celebrates Aussies, according to Southern Living. They tied the knot the following year. "I was able to navigate through about five or six years and then I sort of stumbled into Keith, literally stumbled into him and in my spontaneous way, got married very quickly and we got to know each other when we were married," she said, per ET.

In July 2008, Kidman and Urban welcomed their first daughter, Sunday Rose, according to People. "I wanted to have a baby the minute we met and he was like, 'No,'" she joked, per ET. "And I got lucky. I got to have a child when I was 41." Daughter Faith Margaret arrived in 2010, for whom the couple used a surrogate. Describing their surrogate as "wonderful woman," Kidman said (via ET), "I'm a mother that's experienced motherhood through many different avenues."

While cultivating her family, Kidman continued to work. She returned to TV in 2017, starring as Celeste Wright in "Big Little Lies" to much critical acclaim. According to HuffPost's Matthew Jacobs, Kidman "did career-best work in the HBO limited series." At age 53, as of this writing, Nicole Kidman's work is clearly far from done.
