Rise to Stardom

Interestingly, Faith Margaret Kidman-Urban drew the attention of the international media even before she was born. Her mother, Nicole Kidman, had two miscarriages during her decade long first marriage to Hollywood actor Tom Cruise, and as such, after she successfully gave birth to her first child with husband Keith Urban, daughter Sunday Rose, in July 2008, rumors about a second pregnancy and even the couple adopting a Vietnamese orphan was doing the rounds of the tabloids. However, they kept the whole affair under tight wraps, and only after she was born in December 2010, they surprised all by revealing that they had welcomed a second daughter via gestational surrogacy.

The official statement, in which Kidman referred to the surrogate mother as a "gestational carrier", drew criticism from many, which prompted her to clarify that she was "trying to be accurate" in her description of the process to those who knew. While Faith's parents are secretive about their private lives, she has since then made occasional appearances in the media with her family. Recently in 2019, she made news headlines after she and her older sister Sunday Rose appeared as extras in their mother's hit HBO series 'Big Little Lies' and subsequently bagged voice roles in 'The Angry Birds Movie 2'.

A Unique Reunion

At the age of six, Faith Margaret Kidman-Urban got the opportunity to meet the woman who carried her six years ago. In February 2017, 'Woman's Day' magazine reported that Nicole Kidman went through months of soul-searching during the filming of the 2016 autobiographical movie 'Lion', in which she played the adoptive mother of a young boy who decided to search for his roots after growing up. As a result, she decided to set up a meet-and-greet between six-year-old Faith and her surrogate mother.

The magazine reported that the woman, nicknamed 'Aunty Sheila', had a 'touching meeting' with Faith at her parents' Nashville home where she feels most confident and relaxed. While the child was too young to understand the intensity of the event, the two mothers were unable to hold back tears. However, according to Kidman, Faith was full of questions after the event. The report further revealed that her parents never shy away from telling her that she was carried by a surrogate mother, even though they do not raise the topic very often as she is too young to understand what it means.
