Nicole Kidman taking time off from Hollywood
Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman has revealed she's taking some time off from work after a busy few years because she wants her kids to feel "completely loved, completely prioritized".
Nicole Kidman is taking some time off from work to focus on her family.
The Hollywood actress had a busy few years releasing movies including 'A Family Affair' and 'Babygirl' as well as filming the series series of 'Nine Perfect Strangers' and starring in Netflix drama 'The Perfect Couple' last year - and Nicole has now revealed she's the summer of 2025 off because she wants her kids to feel "completely loved, completely prioritized".
She told Allure magazine: "I’m taking the summer off."
Nicole - who lost her mother Janelle last year - went on to add: "Overgiving is bad for your health. You don’t say to yourself: I matter. I grew up with a very strong connection to taking care of my mother and my family and being the oldest child.
"Put the oxygen mask on yourself first, right? Right. It sounds good in theory, but it doesn't make sense to me when you have kids. I will do anything in terms of sacrifice. I want them to feel completely loved, completely prioritized."
Nicole is mother to two adopted kids - Bella and Connor - with her ex Tom Cruise, and two daughters - Sunday and Faith - with her husband Keith Urban.
In the interview, she was asked: "Do you like who you are as a mother?" and the actress replied: "I do, actually. Yeah. I’m very close to both my girls.
"I sit on their beds and discuss the most intimate things; I get to be their guide. If they want to tell me to be quiet, they can.
"I'm able to apologize to them. I'm able to stand up to them. I very much like the relationship we have. It’s nice to be able to say that."
Despite being very busy with her career in recent years, Nicole previously admitted only her family commitments have stopped her taking on even more projects.
She told Britain’s HELLO! magazine: “I would do so much more if I could. But I’m limited in my physicality, in terms of how I can only do so much, and then I obviously have kids and I have a relationship – but I’m still trying to use what I’ve been given."
