Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are ultra-busy as a successful actress and country music singer, respectively, but their roles as parents will always come first.
The couple, who have been married since 2006, are parents to two daughters, Sunday, 16, and Faith, 13, — plus the Big Little Lies actress is also a mom to Bella, 31, and Connor, 29, who she adopted with ex-husband bwww.hellomagazine.com/tags/tom-cruise/ — and are based in Nashville, Tennessee.
Though they have always kept the girls largely out of the spotlight, most recently, fans have gotten a glimpse of just how quickly they have grown up, though there's a heartwarming reason their dad maintains time hasn't flown by just as fast.
During an appearance on the Today Show on Wednesday, October 30 to promote his latest album, his 11th, High, Keith opened up about how he has always prioritized spending as much time in the family's home base of Nashville as much as possible.
As the Today hosts remarked how grown up Sunday, who recently made her runway debut at a Miu Miu show, is, Keith noted that it doesn't quite feel like his little girl is growing up before his very eyes.
He shared: "I mean it doesn't feel like that for me, it feels like she's 16, it feels like it has been 16 years, beautifully."

Revealing that the one condition was her turning 16, she shared: "She's wanted to go for a long time. That was her foray into it, and that was it."
However, though she recently also had her daughter join her for an Omega party at the 2024 Olympics in Paris, Nicole added: "I'm like no, no more," explaining: "It's a push-pull. I don't want to hold her back because I don't want to be coddling her."
