making their red-carpet debut<\/b><\/a> alongside their parents, when Kidman attended an American Film Institute gala in Hollywood to pick up a lifetime achievement award. <\/p>\n\u201cRight there is the love of my life, and the loves of my life<\/b>,\u201d the Big Little Lies<\/i> star said. \u201cMy daughters have never been anywhere publicly with me on a red carpet, tonight was their first night, so they\u2019re here, Sunday and Faith.\u201d<\/p>\n
Before meeting Urban, Kidman was married to fellow actor Tom Cruise<\/b>. The couple divorced in 2001 after more than a decade of marriage. Kidman and Cruise adopted two children together: Isabella, born in 1992, and Connor, born in 1995.<\/p>\nAn immediate spark – but a long wait for a phone call<\/h3>\n
Kidman and Urban<\/b> first met at G\u2019Day LA<\/b>, an event celebrating Australian culture and contributions. <\/p>\n
For Kidman, there was an immediate spark<\/b> – but she told Ellen DeGeneres\u2019 chat show that Urban did not call her for four months. She assumed he \u201cwasn\u2019t interested,\u201d but to her surprise, he did finally give her a ring. <\/p>\n
Kidman could not have been more wrong in her belief that Urban wasn\u2019t into her. He told Andrew Denton in an interview in 2018 that he \u201cthought she was way out of my league<\/b>,\u201d and that he didn\u2019t believe \u201cin a million years […] that somebody like that would be interested\u201d in him. <\/p>\n
Urban\u2019s comments show how his lack of self-confidence almost got in the way of his future relationship<\/b>, and the happiness he has shared with Kidman and the family they have together over the last two decades.<\/p>\n
