Nicole Kidman reveals unusual activity she does with husband Keith Urban that makes her a ‘good wife’

Nicole Kidman spilled the beans on one unusual activity she does with her husband Keith Urban which makes her a ‘good wife’.

The Eyes Wide Shut icon, 57, revealed the thing she likes to do tends to be while she is at home with her husband, also 57.

Nicole – who has been happily married to Keith since 2006 – spoke candidly in a recent interview with Allure.

She said: ‘I watch car auctions with my husband. That’s a good wife.’ 

The Aussie actress also said her nighttime activities might change from time – and it can include a cold plunge in the ocean.

‘I love the cold ocean. On Big Little Lies, Meryl thought I was nuts; she would see me in the ocean at 6:00 a.m. every day.’

It comes not long after the star suffered a wig mishap while making an appearance at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival earlier this month.

While walking the red carpet at glitzy events, she donned a blonde hairpiece – but the wig cap was visible and in another instance, the wig itself was off center. 

During an appearance on Channel Seven’s Sunrise this week, Nicole opened up about opting for wigs. 

‘As you know, I love changing my hair,’ the Big Little Lies star expressed, before bringing up the short pixie cut she chose for the 2025 Met Gala in NYC this month. 

While some fans initially believed that the star was simply unveiling her natural hair, it was soon revealed that it had also been a wig. 

‘For the Met Gala, everyone was questioning if I had chopped my hair off. But no, I didn’t.’ 

During her interview with Danielle Pergament for her new cover story for Allure for its May 2025 issue, Kidman reflected on getting older. 

When questioned if aging has been difficult, the actress candidly replied: ‘Yes. I’ve always been a future person, and suddenly you go, “Oh.” It’s coming to terms with the idea that you have no control over the future.’ 

She continued, ‘Probably that’s to do with losing people very, very suddenly. I have more time behind me than ahead. 

Speaking about her changing look, she said: 'For the Met Gala, everyone was questioning if I had chopped my hair off. But no, I didn't,' she explained; seen above at the 2025 Met Gala

‘That shift in the ratio becomes a big thing…. You’re just always going, “What is all this?” The existential questions. Who are we? Why are we here?”‘ 

The Oscar winner is preparing to celebrate her 58th birthday next month on June 20.

Nicole also had a discussion about coping with grief following the pᴀssing of her mother last year in September. 

‘Losing my mother changed every part of me,’ she admitted to the outlet, revealing that they would talk to each other multiple times a week.

The star explained that her mother’s death still feels ‘so raw’ and added she is still ‘on the journey of grief, the year of magical thinking.’ 

The beauty has children of her own and is mom to Sunday, 16, and Faith, 14, whom she shares with husband Keith Urban. 

During her past marriage to actor Tom Cruise, the former couple also adopted Bella, 32, and Connor, 30. 

During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter last year, Kidman gave insight to her loved ones. 

‘My husband is a mᴀssive part of who I am, and my daughters. My daughters are huge, huge contributors to things in my life, and they open my eyes to things.’ 

Nicole has been keeping busy and recently starred in the second season of the Hulu thriller series Nine Perfect Strangers, which she also executive produces. 

Other cast members in the new season – which began airing this week on Wednesday – include Henry Golding, Annie Murphy, Christine Baranski, Murray Bartlett, Mark Strong and Lena Olin. 

The premise of the show is: ‘Nine stressed city dwellers visit a boutique health-and-wellness resort that promises healing and transformation. The resort’s director is a woman on a mission to reinvigorate their tired minds and bodies,’ per IMDB.  

During an interview with ABC’s On The Red Carpet, the actress reflected on the latest season and her own character Masha. 

‘It’s just such a rich story, which lends itself to many different reinventions, and Masha herself is a reinvention every time,’ Kidman expressed. 

‘I’m in the middle of it all, but I get to shine a light on everybody else who’s in it, and this time around, it was this extraordinary cast.’

While season one took place in Los Angeles, the setting for season two has changed to the Austrian Alps. 

The second season of Nine Perfect Strangers consists of eight episodes – with the final set to release on Hulu on July 2.
