Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman’s daughters recently made an appearance at the 2021 Golden Globes Broadcast during the opening monologue. The two siblings – Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret – were both dressed in white to cheer for their mom, and this was one of the few moments that the actress and country crooner shared their kids in the spotlight. And without exaggeration, for many of those who are looking forward to seeing them in full light, this is worth their weight in gold.
Sunday arrived unexpectedly into the lives of and . The actress had been suffering from infertility issues even before when she was still married to co-actor Tom Cruise, which was why they chose to
instead. And so, having Sunday biologically was such a joy for the couple.
The name ‘Sunday’ was actually suggested by her maternal grandfather. In an interview with Kidman’s father, Antony, he said that he had read about Sunday Reed and her husband John, and she was known as a key mover and shaker in the arts during the beginning of the century. The name Sunday struck him as a nice name for a woman, so he and his wife mentioned it to the couple. On the other hand, Rose was a nod to Urban’s late grandmother Rose.
Sunday Rose is more commonly known as Sunny (a heartwarming moniker given to her by her dad) now, and just like her mom, she has caught the acting bug.
The now 12-year-old already has 3 acting credits to her name, with the first one being on her mom’s show in 2017 and then a voice-over role for in 2019. And most recently, she also appeared in another of her mom’s shows, . But it looks like Sunday is more interested in something more than acting. In an interview with Nicole Kidman, she said that after she asked what her daughters wanted to become in the future, Sunday answered that she would still be in the film industry not as an actress but as a director. And she was definitely confident that she could make it happen.
The second of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s kids, Faith Margaret, has a different yet equally interesting story.
Unlike her older sister, Sunday, Faith was carried by a surrogate. Keith Urban and family kept the whole pregnancy a secret, and the news of Faith’s birth was only announced after the 2011 Golden Globes Awards ceremony.
Faith was born on December 28, 2010, at The Women’s Hospital at Centennial in Nashville through a gestational carrier whom the couple feels so incredibly grateful for. In a story from Women’s Magazine, Faith, who is turning 11 this year, had already met “Aunty Sheila,” the surrogate who carried her when she was 6. According to a source, it was definitely a touching and emotional meeting, and Nicole, as well as the surrogate, had difficulty holding back their tears.
