Nicole Kidman has recalled one of the most “emotional” moments of her life, which took place moments before she wed Keith Urban.
Looking back on their June 25, 2006 wedding at St Patrick’s Estate in Manly, the Australian actress called their nuptials “extraordinary” in a new interview.
“I remember being in Sydney and driving down the street. I was with my dad, who’s obviously not around now,” she told People.

“He was in the car with me and we were driving to the church, and there were so many people on the street celebrating us, which was just one of the most emotional things in my life.”
The Big Little Lies actress went on to say that she feels lucky to have Urban, who is still the ”deep, deep love” of her life 18 years later.
Kidman also shared a rare insight into their family life with daughters Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret.
Calling her 15- and 13-year-old daughters “divine”, Kidman said they are two huge supports in her life.

She and Urban are deeply protective of their daughters, keeping them away from the spotlight and opting not to post their faces on social media.
Kidman’s comments come just days after husband Urban hit the CMT Awards red carpet solo, though Kidman wasn’t far from his mind.
When asked how they make their marriage work, the country star was diplomatic, telling E! News: “We’re figuring it out. You figure it out. Everybody’s different. There’s no one size fits all.”
He also joked that he’d be keen to work on music with his actress wife, though they’d have to find time in their busy schedules to actually make it happen.

Urban and Kidman met in 2005 at G’Day USA, an event that celebrates Aussie creativity and contribution in the US.
He got her number, but didn’t call it for months. When they finally did connect, sparks flew and less than a year later they were walking down the aisle.
