Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban: Easter Family Reunion in Sydney

Why doesn’t Nicole EVER spend any time with her TWO children? Tom isn’t keeping them prisoner, but it seems like she forgot about them when she married Keith.

This is wrong!

Did she EVER think that the kids might have wanted to see their grandparents? OR do you think they aren’t considered grandkids since they are adopted?

There is something going on here because when Keith was in rehab, we never saw Nicole with the kids. She never goes to any of their games, and she doesn’t seem involved with the kids at all.

I’ve lost respect for her because of this. I saw one picture of her with her daughter at Christmas. Nicole wasn’t even holding the little girls hand while they scurried into a department store. Nic even seemed a little embarrassed to be seen with the girl.

Now all she talks about is having a child. Well, legally, she has TWO children. She must have FORGOT that fact!

You should ask Tom Cruise, he has the answer.

The children are in a prison, now, will seek a picture of Tom Cruise..

My God.

This couple is great.

Her children are in prison? And why NICOLE (their mother) doesn’t do anything about it then? Legally, she has the same right as Tom has.
She seems to care less if her children are with her or not. Isn’t that strange as well? If she really loves them, why she doesn’t do something to see them more? If Tom keeps her from seeing them, go to court or something. Why not?

Lots of control going on there, she’s holding on to him for dear life. Can’t help but wonder if they also visited his family. Prolly not.

These are great pictures, thanks! They look really happy, hope this relationship lasts.

Awww…they look cute. Thanks!

well it seems like she’s just trying to live her life, maybe without using the media to draw up an ideal picture of her. was she not with her two children at some kid’s choice awards? the simple fact is, no one knows what she does all hours of the day. what people here in particular seem to focus on is the lack of pictures of nicole with her children perhaps carrying one of them in an earth motherly way by the paparazzi. maybe she’s not like angelina who may or may not be using the paps to manipulate the perception of the masses. i dunno, a lot of people really take these “stolen” pictures way too seriously. it’s like, while you’re steaming over the pictures, have you actually checked on your own kids recently? focus on your life. not these celebrities.

Erin you said everything!

I’m very happy for her.I can imagine how important this is for her.

And leave her alone because of her kids, she knows better than any of us, what to do!

Carlson and Erin i think in the same way.

Erin and company, I don’t know what you are drinking if you think this woman looks natural. She is completely botoxed out. Is it not funny when she is neglectful of her children, you bring in Angelina’s name into it. Nicole takes her children to Kid’s choice awards where pictures will be taken, and the children’s body language scream ‘uncomfortable’, she never shows up at their game, but whenever she goes anywhere with Keith, even visiting family, pictures always appear.

The Pitts go to Springfield for a week, being hounded as they are, not one picture appear for their whole visit and yet people can’t see Nicole for the fake, insecure woman that she is.

I could care less about how she plays her fans and the media, but when her fans try to defend her being an absent mother by saying being seen without her children is because she is shielding them from the media unlike Angelina, who you don’t need to see her to know she is with her children is bullcr*p.

Angelina, unlike Nicole could care less what the media think or write about her, if she did, she would employed a PR firm to sell her to the gullible public, that she hasn’t done that should tell you that she is comfortable in her skins, unlike Nicole who always looks like a scared child and she is almost 40.

Enjoy your Nicole and Keith, just leave Angelina out of it.

I love this couple!!!!

I love Nic.
She is rich, beautiful, talented, intelligent, honest, therefore they are with envy.

Oh dear, the Nicole haters are full of venom today. Since so many of these haters are fixated on pictures, perhaps they should take a look at this week’s InTouch magazine. The picture and article spoke a thousand words. The kids have a very loving relationship with their mother, Nicole. The article further mentioned the kids are starting to rebel against Tom’s controlling ways, which make it very difficult for them to see their mother.

I have nothing but admiration for Nicole as an actress, a wife, a mother, and most of all, a very decent human being who works behind the scenes for several charities. The fact that she can maintain solid and warm relationships with several long-time friends tells me she is a caring and loyal friend.

JoAnn In Touch if full of ****. Tom has always been the better parent and loved those children. Nicole has not been in those kids lives for years. She only takes them out and has pictures with them when she can get some PR from it. I’m not even a Tom fan and it’s plain as day that the kids mean the world to them and they are very happy. Nicole has just as much right and more than enough money to fight Tom and get to see the kids. She just doesn’t WANT to.

As usual NK is so happy to be home celebrating Easter with her family. So far, Keith and his family have not had a holiday together now since Christmas 05. He hasn’t been home … to his parent’s home…since the fall of 05. It seems to me that it is now all about what NK wants and Keith is towing the line. It makes me sad to see him give up the things important to him…but I think that’s what’s happening. I suspect she keeps him on a short leash since Amandagate and now, he has to do what she wants … when she wants, or else.

As far as the children, we don’t know. But the body language at the Kid’s Choice Awards did not show a warm relationship. If she did spend a reasonable amount of time with them, there would be pictures. There are pictures of her with her family, including with her neices and nephews and lots with Keith. She couldn’t keep it that quiet…there would be some pictures.

NK has said herself in interviews that she wishes she had more time for her kids, but work obligations and her family and Keith were not allowing her to find the time. I can tell you that as a mother, NOTHING would keep me from my kids. NOTHING. She has $100 million and a private jet…she could fly them to see her or fly to see them any time she wants, but her career and her love life have taken priority. Oh…but don’t worry. She keeps in touch by cel phone and web cam.

Has it occurred to any of you bad-mouthing Nicole’s parenting skills that when she married Tommy-boy all those years ago, she had to give up her own Cathelic faith, & embrace Scientology. I can remember the first year of her marriage she wasn’t “allowed” to have anything to do with “non-believers” like her family until she completed her studies of Tom’s Faith.

After the divorce was finalized she was free of the brainwashing, but the children weren’t. They’re TEENAGERS now and die-hard Scientologists, and because their mom isn’t, they barely tolerate her visits, and are most likely glad to see the back of her in order to “please” daddy and his rigid views.

Scientology isn’t the only “religion” that employs shunning as a way of controlling followers [4 lack of a better term] and keeping them from straying. Amish, Mormans, Catholics, Muslims, etc., all have rules that must be adhered to in order to be part of the group, and if you go against them… you stand to lose everything. In some cases children are removed from the “non-believer” and never seen again.

Nicole’s “crime” that had Tom divorce her, shun her– She wanted their kids to learn about OTHER religions BEFORE choosing to become Scientogists. Unfortunately, that choice was already made by Tom and whatever he taught them… Bottom line? Her CHILDREN WANT NOTHING TO DO WITH HER!

Thankfully, she seems happy in her marriage to Keith Urban… all the best to both of them.

You people know nothing about Nicole & her relationship with her kids or how much Keith has seen his family. And keith’s parents were in Sydney in December. Plus they spend more then a month with Nicole & Keith last August & Sept. You have no idea if they went to Queensland first or if they will be heading there after Easter.

It is their business not yours if you know nothing about it. I highly doubt they would queestion what you or your family do.

And Keith did not “out” her for not seeing the kids enough. They don’t feel that their relationship with the kids is anyone’s business but their own. They don’t read message boards so they don’t even know or probably care what the opinions here are. Worry about what people in your own families do.

I would tend to agree with you except I remember reading an interview with Keith Urban where he admits that he doesn’t really know his stepchildren and doesn’t spend all that much time with them. I understand that they go to school in California and live with their father but seriously, to HARDLY EVER see a pic of Nicole with her kids is weird even by Hollywood standards.
As for those who are comparing Nicole to Angelina …that is hardly fair because no matter what Angie does she will be be condemned. Either people will say she spends TOO much time with her kids or they will say she doesn’t spend ENOUGH time with her kids. I say she does it just right. But Nicole puts out the vibe that she would rather not deal with her kids.

“Who’s to say her kids are not there and they are already inside the home?”–Riiiight, they smuggled them in under the cover of the night. Gosh, NK fans must be in deep denial.

You know Bella & Connor aren’t hearing anything about Jesus being resurrected; heck, they’d be lucky to spy an Easter bunny within a mile of TC’s compound. It must be all about how Jesus can’t even begin to compare to Xenu…

I’m sorry to disappoint you Maxine, but I do have pictures of her and her kids. Nicole is beautiful, talented, incredibly wealthy and married to a hunky guy who LOVES and ADORES her. She has a loving relationship with her family, her in-laws and her children. Eat your heart out!!

JoAnn.. and you’re NK’s publicist or just a plain NK apologist?

I also like this one: “They don’t read message boards so they don’t even know or probably care what the opinions here are.” Their various publicists DO care what’s written about them. Nicole lives her life via People magazine, endlessly pandering to the MiniVan majority.. “Easter matters to her” — she’s telling everyone she’s a) family-oriented and loyal and b) religious. Please. She sold her soul to the devil when she married Cruise. She got exactly what she wanted out of it.

The only brainwashing going on here is by Nicole. It is unbelievable how some people think she is so perfect. All the tabloids came out with stories last week about Tom brainwashing the kids because people were starting to take note that she is never with her kids. Her PR team went to town to wash that rumor away! She can easily be photographed with her niece and nephew, but not her own kids??? Keith did say that he doesn’t know his stepchildren because they don’t spend much time with them - hello - what does that tell you?

No, the kids aren’t with them - did you see them getting off the plane? NO! Did you see them getting out of the car at the house? NO! The paparazzi are covering that house, and if the kids were there, they would have been photographed. Also, why would she want to hide the fact that the kids are with them? So let’s see how many holidays has she missed with the kids? I think this is the eighth major holiday that she has not spent with them. I feel sad for Keith that everything is about her family - where is your family Keith?

Maraming salamat(”Thank you in Filipino)!!!!

TO THE STAFF OF JUST JARED…

For always posting pics/vids of Nic…….love it!!!!

You are absolutely right, Dancer. The kids do visit her on film sets. Shortly before this year’s Oscar event, there were pictures of Connor on the set of “The Invasion”. This would normally not be mentioned in the press, were it not for the fact that there was an accident on the set and Nicole had to be taken to the hospital for check-up.

And, Maxine, hell will freeze over before I share the pictures with YOU.

I agree why do we never see NIcole with her children or at their activities? It is very obvious they live with their father and I am not fan of Tom but I am sure his children enjoy being with him because he is adventurous and involved which seems to be very opposite from Nicole. Keith even said in an interview that he hasnt spent much time with them. Don’t you think that if you marry someone they should be close with your children first? Weird. I think she is a strange women.

Keith didn’t say he hardly knows Nicole’s kids. He said he had a good relationship with them. It’s also silly to judge Nicole and her kids relationship based on one photo taken at the Kids choice awards. Just because they weren’t all sitting there with a silly, fake Katie Holmes smiles on their faces didn’t mean they weren’t happy. Nicole and Keith look really happy together and i wish them the best.

Can someone please tell me what interview Kidman said that she doesn’t really have time for her kids? I’m not doubting the claim, I’d just like to see a direct quote.

Thanks!

Hejla, there is NO interview where Nicole says she has no time for her kids.

And there is also no quote from Keith where he says he hardly knows his stepkids. He says he doesn’t get to spend as much time with his stepkids as alot of other stepdads probably do but it is a good relationship.

It amazes me how people can make up their own quotes.

Somebody also mentioned about Keith’s parents. They were in Nashville quite a bit last year and they were in Sydney at Christmas time. But the paps wouldn’t leave them alone. It was on the Australian version of A Current Affair. And the movie that Nicole is starting in a few weeks is being shot in Queensland. That is where Keith’s parents live. They DO NOT live in Sydney.

There are lot of people I don’t like, but I don’t go trashing them. I just don’t waste my time. If you don’t like Nicole or Keith, why waste your time posting about them? Just move on.

Nicole never said that she doesn’t have time for her kids.The haters/crazies from the E!online boards are just making things up and feigning concern for her children because they are desperate to bash Nicole and can’t find anything.Also,Keith never said he doesn’t know his stepchildren,his exact words were:”I don’t get to see the kids as much as probably a lot of stepdads would, but it is a good relationship.”.
And for those who don’t believe that the kids are brainwashed,just google the words “Scientology” and “Disconnection” and you’ll see.

Danielle-Nicole is already an Oscar-winner.She won the Oscar for “The Hours”,remember?(”Hollywood powerhouse” Tom Cruise is still Oscar-less by the way).You haters really don’t seem to know much about her…

I don’t think it’s a case of if they were her biologial kids she would not give them up so easily. We have no idea the real reason but those kids were born to Scientologist parents before they were adopted. I do know of a mother who had to give her baby up for adoption but she insisted the baby be brought up as a Muslim. Could it be the natural mothers imposed a similar condition on the adoption that I and C be brought up as Scientologists. If so, then Nicole does not stand a good chance in the courts. There are other things to consider, such as, if Nicole does decide to battle in the courts and fights for sole custody, there is always the threat of Tom cutting ties with the kids and their inheritence. I’m no lawyer, but these are just a few thoughts.

Let me just say that for people who claim not to like Nicole Kidman at all, you sure are well informed on all her whereabouts, the kind of photos there are of her out there, what she’s up to and whether or not she sees her kids. I mean seriously, have you such low empty lives that you must frantically search for reasons to attack those you hate? That must truly be a sad way of life for you. No wonder the world is at it is; instead of cultivating love, most of you out there bear grins on your faces while dissing everyone you’re not fond of, especially those you know **** about, even though you think you do. You can’t help but construct your own rumors and draw your own conclusions, presuming to know what goes in those people’s lives and whether or not they’re being honest. Not in a million years will you ever know what Nicole’s situation is in terms of ANYTHING. You have access to a very limited side of her being so get off your damned high horse and focus on your lives instead. Let Nicole be and let us Nicole admirers keep admiring her for what we choose to. It’s none of your godamned business why we love her and whether or not we’re in denial. Go comment on the celebs you “think” you should love and stop commenting about the same things over and over and over. I’ll even include a polite “please”.

“And, Maxine, hell will freeze over before I share the pictures with YOU. :–LOL… Darling Steph ;) it’s blatantly clear you don’t have any “secret” footage of Nicole and her kids, no photos either. Even NKU doesn’t have any. Give it up girl.

It is so funny how Deede4525 Says abt Nicole not spending time with her children like he(she) lives next door :)) It might haven’t been covered by paparazzi, that’s it, but that doesn’t mean that she doesn’t visit her children

The E boards is a cesspool of hate.

Wow…talking of haters. The comments aimed at posters on this site are horrible. I haven’t read one item against Nicole or Keith as vile as the truly hateful comments aimed at other posters. Stones, glass houses and all that. Shame on you guys.

i think that nicole is a realy nice person but i think she sould spend more time with her kids she sould take some time off work to be with them…..x
