Kidman and Urban welcomed daughterSunday Roseon July 7, 2008, in Nashville. According to PEOPLE, Kidman’s father first suggested the name Sunday in honor of the Australian patron of the arts, Sunday Reed. The couple, who claim Sunday as their “favorite day,” were clearly on board.

When Sunday was young, the family relocated to Tennessee. In addition to picking up her parents' Australian lingo, Sunday adopted a bit of a Southern accent.

“My daughters are Nashvillians! They have a southern drawl,” Kidman told PEOPLE in 2016. “They have some Aussie. They have an unusual mix. They’re hybrids.”

Her Aussie accent isn’t the only way she’s following in her mom and dad’s footsteps — Sunday has had a passion for music since she was a little girl.

“She sings incessantly,” Kidman said in 2010 of her then-2-year-old-daughter. “She has a repertoire of about 30 songs: ‘The ABC Song,’ ‘Twinkle, Twinkle, Traffic Light,’ ‘So Long, Farewell.’ "

It also seems like Sunday wants to follow her mother into the filmmaking industry. In a 2018 interview for TIME 100, Kidman shared that Sunday was already thinking of pursuing a career in the entertainment industry.

“I’m raising a little girl that’sshowing an interest in directing right now,” she said. “I want her to have a path for that.”

At the 2017 Palm Springs International Film Festival, Kidman toldE! Newsthat Sunday also does some acting: “My daughter just got cast in her school play,” she said. “So, that’s been the main priority, learning lines with her.”

Sunday and Faith made theirred carpet debutin April 2024 at the AFI Life Achievement Award Gala, where their mom was the evening’s honoree. “They’re very,very supportive and incredibly loving,” Kidman told PEOPLE at the star-studded Los Angeles event.

In October 2024, Sunday made herrunway debutat Miu Miu’s spring/summer 2025 Paris Fashion Week show. She graced the catwalk in a sleeveless white dress with black knee socks and open-toe pumps.

Urban told PEOPLE that he is “very proud” of his daughter for following her modeling dreams, though he does want her to stay grounded.

As Sunday continued her modeling career, she appeared in aTikTok video forVoguein March 2025 when she walked for Miu Miu during Paris Fashion Week again. With one runway show (and some advice from Miuccia Prada) under her belt, she said she was feeling “a lot more confident” the second time around.

“I kind of feel like I’ve been able to express myself more this time,” she added.

Kidman and Urban surprised fans when they announced that they had welcomed daughterFaith Margaretvia gestational surrogate on Dec. 28, 2010, in Nashville.

Like her sister, Faith’s name has a sweet meaning. Despite their fertility struggles, Kidman and Urban “never gave up faiththey’d have another child together,” a friend of the couple told PEOPLE after her birth. As for her middle name, “Margaret” comes from Kidman’s grandmother.

Juggling two young daughters with Kidman and Urban’s busy careers isn’t easy, though the actress told PEOPLE in 2019 that their family always comes first.

“At this stage in our lives, it’s what works for the family and what works for our own joy,” she said of avoiding jobs that mean too much time away from their daughters.

The pandemic brought on new challenges for Kidman’s two younger children. Speaking toGlamour U.K.in November 2020, she explained that Faith and Sunday were “working through the emotions” of social distancing. “One of the hardest things is just watching them pine and yearn for their friends,” she added.

Earlier that year, Kidman spoke toMarie Claire Australiaabout how her husband was outnumbered and had to retreat from the “female-heavy” house on occasion.

“We’re definitely female-heavy! But as the girls say, ‘The dog’s a boy!’ " she joked, adding that her husband finds solace in one of his shared hobbies with Faith.

“Oh, and he Googles cars — I’ll know when he’s stressed ‘cause he’s Googling cars,” she said. “I couldn’t care less what car I’m driving; you can pick me up in any old thing. But Keith and Faith love cars.”

In December 2024, Faith supported her mom atThe Hollywood Reporter’s annualWomen In Entertainment gala, where Kidman was honored with the Sherry Lansing Leadership Award.
