Reflecting on grieving for her parents
The loss of her parents has had a profound effect on Nicole Kidman, shaping her outlook on life and her career. In reflecting on the grief she experienced, she shared, "If you're in it and don't let it dull you. And I'm in it. All in," indicating that despite the pain, she is fully embracing the process of mourning. She also described moments of intense sorrow, saying, "You wake up at 3 a.m. crying and gasping for air," offering a raw glimpse into the emotional toll of losing loved ones.
Best known for her roles in projects like 'Big Little Lies', Kidman has opened up about the unique challenges of coping with the loss of her parents while raising her two daughters, Sunday and Faith, alongside her husband, Keith Urban. "Mortality. Connection. Life comes and meets you," she said, reflecting on how the realities of life and death intersect, particularly as she balances family and her career.
Influence on career and family
Kidman received the devastating news of her mother's death just before she was set to appear at the Venice Film Festival for her role in 'Babygirl'. At the event, director Halina Reijn shared a heartfelt message from Kidman, in which she mourned the loss of her "beautiful, courageous mother."
In an emotional interview with 'Vanity Fair', Kidman described her mother, Janelle Ann Kidman, as her "Compass," acknowledging the pivotal role she played in shaping her as both a woman and an actress.
Sadly, Janelle Ann Kidman passed away before she could witness her daughter's latest work. Reflecting on this, Kidman expressed regret, saying, "I wish she could have seen this part of it. She was very excited to see 'Babygirl', and she was excited to see 'Perfect Couple' too, but she didn't get to see either of those"
