Nicole Names Baby Sunday Rose Urban Kidman
As an update to the ’ story on Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s new baby girl, the couple has announced their daughter’s name - Sunday Rose Urban Kidman.
And according to Urban’s rep, things are so far so good for the Urban trio. “Husband Keith was by Nicole’s side and mother and baby are very well. They are delighted.”
This morning Keith wrote on his website, “Earlier this morning, Nic gave birth to our beautiful baby girl, Sunday Rose Kidman Urban. We want to thank everybody that has kept us in their thoughts and prayers. We feel blessed and grateful that we can share this joy with all of you today.”
In a recent interview, the “Others” actress said that her pregnancy was a special surprise. “I didn’t think I’d get to experience that in my lifetime. I like the unpredictable nature of it. To feel life growing with you is something very, very special, and I’m going to embrace that completely.”
And up to the day before she gave birth, Kidman stayed active, pictured below on her way to a yoga class on Sunday afternoon.
It’s a Girl for Nicole & Keith! Their Sunday Rose Blooms on Monday
Nicole Kidman beat Angelina Jolie to the finish line.
The Aussie Oscar winner and her Grammy-winning husband, Keith Urban, welcomed their first child, a baby girl, this morning in Nashville.
The Monday-born Sunday Rose Kidman Urban checked in at 6 pounds, 7½ ounces, according to a statement from their publicist.
“Keith was by Nicole’s side, and mother and baby are very well,” the rep added.
On his website, Urban gave a shout-out to his family and fans.
“Earlier this morning, Nic gave birth to our beautiful baby girl,” he wrote. “We want to thank everybody that has kept us in their thoughts and prayers. We feel very blessed and grateful that we can share this joy with all of you today. More to follow…”
Presumably the “more to follow” will include why they picked the moniker for their newborn.
Kidman, 41, has two other children from her union with Tom Cruise, Isabella, 15, and Connor, 13. She and Urban, 40, married June 25, 2006.
They announced their pregnancy in January.
Just this weekend, Urban noted that his missus was due to burst at any minute. At a Nashville concert Saturday, with Kidman waiting in the wings, Urban dedicated his song “Better Half” to his “very, very, very, very, very pregnant wife.”
Nicole and Keith Celebrate Second Anniversary
Nicole and Keith Celebrate Second Anniversary
Their first year of marriage was complicated with his trip to rehab for alcoholism, but the 2nd year was marked with a baby on the way. And Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban couldn’t be happier.
The soon-to-be-parents were spotted out and about yesterday on their 2nd wedding anniversary starting the day off at their favorite hangout, a local Starbucks Coffeeshop.
Following their coffee-and-pastry breakfast, the “Moulin Rouge” actress and her “Days Go By” singer hubby headed over to Whole Foods for lunch with Keith’s co-writer Monty Powell and his wife.
And apparently Keith is going the extra mile in the gonna-be-a-daddy department. During a recent radio interview, Nicole actually called in to sing his praises.
She said, “Hi, this is Keith’s wife! Actually Keith has been doing Lamaze lessons, he is selling himself short! He doesn’t know the name [of the classes] but he has been very good at it!”
According to the couple, their baby is due “soon.”
Nicole Kidman’s Baby Talk
Nicole Kidman can’t believe she’s pregnant.
“When I first saw the baby on the ultrasound, I started crying,” she says in the new issue of Vogue. “I didn’t think I’d get to experience that in my lifetime…To feel life growing with you is something very, very special, and I’m going to embrace that completely. I don’t believe in flittering around the edges of things. You’re either going to walk through life and experience it fully or you’re going to be a voyeur. And I’m not a voyeur.”
And that means experiencing the good and the bad.
If you remember, Nic’s husband, Keith Urban, checked himself into rehab shortly after they were married. Now, Vogue writer John Powers reports, she and Urban are never apart for more than five days at a time. “I’m so committed to this relationship, and so is he,” Kidman says. “I don’t have addiction problems, but love is a very powerful force in my life. It’s my fatal flaw and my virtue.”
Also powerful in her life? Work.
You can’t accuse Ms. Kidman of not going all the way for a role.
In the upcoming Baz Luhrmann epic, Australia, they shot in some pretty far-flung locales Down Under.
“It’s the roughest thing I ever had to go through,” Kidman says. “The heat is debilitating. I was sitting on a horse once and I remember thinking, Gosh, this is what it feels like before you faintand then I fainted.”
