Fans flooded social media with adoration for Kidman and Urban's daughters, Faith and Sunday, making their debut appearance. Comments ranged from praising their natural beauty to noting their striking resemblance to their parents.
"Beautiful natural girls... Hope they stay that way…" remarked one fan, while another gushed, "Her daughters are gorgeous!! What beautiful, fresh, happy faces!" One more user added: “Her daughters are beautiful but then I expected they would be!”
“They are so grown up and beautiful parents should be so proud,” echoed another admirer, capturing the sentiment shared by many. “Wow they grew up so quickly, and tall like their Mum,” the other online user couldn’t stop gushing over the pretty girls.
Sunday Rose, 15, and Faith Margaret, 13, captured attention in their elegant ensembles, Sunday in a floral strapless gown and Faith in a striking coral dress.

"They are here to support me, and they're very, very supportive and incredibly loving," she expressed.

However, amidst the celebrations, fans expressed concern over the absence of Kidman's elder adopted children, Isabella and Connor, whom she shares with ex-husband Tom Cruise. Speculation arose regarding their absence, with some attributing it to their affiliation with Scientology.
“Awww shame her other children - Isabella and Connor -weren’t there," lamented one user, echoing sentiments shared by others concerned about the family's dynamics. “I’m glad she got another chance at a family. Yes, she adopted Connor and Isabella, but Tom and Scientology stole them from her. I mean it when I say stole as well. I can’t imagine the pain of losing your children to a cult,” one of Nicole Kidman’s fans explained.
Kidman, known for her guarded approach to her private life, addressed questions about her relationship with her elder children and their involvement with Scientology. "They are adults," she stated candidly, emphasizing her role as a mother to provide love and support, regardless of her children's choices.
In the midst of glitz and glamor, Kidman's heartfelt acknowledgment of family love, coupled with the debut of Sunday and Faith, encapsulated the essence of the evening—a celebration of both personal and professional milestones.
As previously reported:
Nicole Kidman's husband, Keith Urban, and their daughter, Faith Kidman-Urban, were recently spotted at Sydney Airport. The young teen notably resembled her mother, echoing her looks from the early days of her career. However, some fans thought differently.
As they navigated through the bustling environment of Sydney Airport, Faith was dressed comfortably for the international flight, sporting a pale blue T-shirt, grey sweatpants, and a matching grey hoodie. She carried a large black backpack and styled with her brunette hair in a low braid.
Meanwhile, Keith maintained a low-key appearance, opting for casual cargo pants paired with a white graphic-printed T-shirt. He accessorized his look with a pair of white sneakers, shaded his eyes with thick black sunglasses, and carried a large backpack.
The appearance immediately drew several actions from fans, particularly talking about Faith's resemblance to her parents and they quickly took to social media to express themselves.
Some noted that Faith is the "spitting image of her dad," while others observed that she has "her mother's nose and lips." One user noted that they could "see Nicole in her," but agreed that she resembled her father more. Many agreed that "she looks more like her dad," with some writing that she"looks like Keith," and others gushed that she was "beautiful."
The father-daughter duo's appearance at the airport was not just a casual outing. Tt was a significant travel event. Keith and Faith were headed to the United States where Nicole was set to be honored with an American Film Institute Lifetime Achievement Award.
Nicole and Keith, both luminaries in their respective fields, have managed to keep their family life relatively private, despite their global fame. The couple shares two daughters, 15-year-old Sunday and 13-year-old Faith. Nicole also has two older children, Bella and Connor, from her previous marriage to actor Tom Cruise.
In rare moments, Nicole has opened up about her family, expressing a deep appreciation for the stability and love she shares with Keith. She has remarked on the profound support Keith provides.
This support empowers her to pursue her demanding acting career with confidence. From Keith's perspective, fatherhood has been a transformative experience. He has spoken candidly about the joy and the learning curve involved in raising daughters. This is particularly special for Keith as he does not have any sisters.
Keith cherishes being a parent, a role he hadn't anticipated earlier in his life but has embraced fully. Keith's reflections on parenting reveal a tender, personal side to his otherwise public persona as a country music star and former "American Idol" judge.
He has noted how his daughters, Sunday and Faith, exhibit distinct personalities. He shared that Sunday is outgoing and sunny—aptly reflecting her nickname, "Sunny." Faith shows a more introspective nature even at a young age. These differences have brought joy and a sense of wonder to Keith as he navigates raising two unique individuals.
Moreover, Keith has integrated his family life into his professional world in meaningful ways. His daughters influence his music and creative processes. They are often the first to hear his new tracks.
Nicole and Keith have cultivated a distinctive approach to parenting. One of the more unique aspects of their family dynamic is their decision not to text each other. Nicole has shared that this practice helps maintain a direct and more meaningful communication line between them. She emphasizes that calls over texts ensure they connect deeply and meaningfully.
This method extends to how they manage their family life amidst their busy schedules. Despite the demands of their careers, they prioritize direct interaction. This helps keep their family bond strong. Nicole and Keith's lifestyle is a testament to their commitment to not only nurturing their careers but also fostering a nurturing home environment for their daughters.
The recent sighting of Keith with his daughter Faith at Sydney Airport highlighted the strong familial resemblance between Faith and her famous parents and shed light on the intimate family dynamics of the Urban-Kidman household.
Aside from maintaining strong familial bonds and keeping their children's lives private, Nicole has also instilled her values in them. We previously reported that Nicole has not turned her back on her religion and is not planning on raising her kids outside of the church.
Oscar-award-winning actress Nicole Kidman is not going back as far as her faith is concerned. On Sunday, the actress was spotted with her husband, Keith, and one of their daughters dressed up and attending church. They all radiated elegance, with their outfits making a statement.
Nicole didn't fail to show her unique sense of fashion; the Australian-American actress looked stunning in a long black dress paired with black and silver sandals.
Nicole, whose hair was impeccably styled, complimented her look with a stylish beige bag and cute black sunglasses. Her husband also exhibited a sense of style, wearing a checked shirt, navy blue pants, and distinctive sneakers.
Their daughter wore a patterned sleeveless dress in a color that matched her dad's shirt. She completed her look with a pair of white sneakers and socks. Unlike her mother, she did not carry a bag and opted for gold jewelry.
Nicole was born into an Irish Catholic family and has remained committed to her faith. She treasures her Christian values and wears a diamond-studded crucifix, a cherished gift from her grandmother, which she rarely removes.
