| Nicole Kidman Is Pregnant
For Kidman, 40, this will be her third child. She and her former husband, Tom Cruise adopted two children during their marriage: Isabella, now 15, and Connor, 12. As for where Kidman and Urban, 40, who will be a first-time parent, may bring up their impending arrival, the couple, though both from Down Under, purchased a farm near Leipers Fork, Tenn., a half-hour southwest of Nashville, in 2007. The couple, who have been married 18 months, wed, after a yearlong courtship, on June 25, 2006, in a candlelit ceremony at Sydney, Australia's Cardinal Cerretti Memorial Chapel on St. Patrick's Estate at Manly. Guests at the black-tie event included Russell Crowe, Hugh Jackman, Naomi Watts and Rupert Murdoch. Before the couple even started dating, Kidman made her desire for more children clear. In April 2005, she told reporters that her biological clock was ticking.
Me and my travels
Big family holidays to Cornwall. Me, our kid and all our cousins all went down. You can imagine Cornwall in the early 1970s being hit by a load of Mancs. It didn't know what had hit it: we used to rob it blind. No one down there seemed to know that shoplifting existed. Cheapest holidays I've ever had. MY BEST EVER HOLIDAY WAS... I can't remember. My memory is absolutely terrible. It's crystal clear until I was 17 and then there are just massive gaps. I'm told I went to Cuba to film a video; I genuinely don't remember ever being there. TRAVELLING USED TO BE... All about finding drugs. When we first went to New York in the mid-1980s, crack was just being written and talked about. That was our main mission - to find out how to make crack proper.
