Nicole Kidman's bittersweet day involving daughters and husband Keith Urban

Nicole Kidman lives an idyllic family life with husband Keith Urban and their daughters Sunday Rose, 14, and Faith Margaret, 12. 

The Big Little Lies actress will no doubt be making sure that her daughters treat their father today as Father's Day is celebrated around the world. 

And while it will be a joyful occasion in the Kidman-Urban household, it will also be tinted with sadness for Nicole, who sadly lost her beloved father, Anthony Kidman, in 2014. 

On past Father's Day, Nicole has paid tribute to Anthony on social media, alongside poignant messages. Back in 2018, she share a heartfelt message alongside a throwback photo of herself posing in the middle of her late dad and mom, Janelle, as they both planted a kiss on her cheeks. 

She posted it alongside a picture of Keith embracing his young daughters outside in the backyard. She penned: "Happy Father's Day Papa and Keith Lionel.

"Thank you for being the most wonderful, kind and loving fathers. The girls and I know how fortunate we are."

Their mom Nicole was previously asked about her children's decision to follow the church, telling The Sun in 2019: "Motherhood is about the journey. There are going to be incredible peaks and valleys, whether you are an adopting mother or a birth mother. What a child needs is love.

In another recent interview with Harper's Bazaar, Nicole opened up about motherhood. She said: "[I do] not have a big social life. I have my work, I have my family, I have my own inner landscape that I explore. I choose that probably more than I choose to be out partying."
