NICOLE’S BABY MIRACLE!

As she gently patted her tummy, an elated Nicole stole the show on the red carpet

Gracing the red carpet for the LA premiere of her new movie Boy Erased, all eyes were on Nicole Kidman – and it wasn’t all thanks to her stunning sparkly gown.

Gently resting her hands on her stomach as she smiled for the cameras, onlookers couldn’t help but notice what looked to be the start of a small baby bump.

And as a glowing Nicole, 51, delicately patted her tummy throughout the evening, the Aussie star all but confirmed some very exciting news – a baby is on the way!

Nicole’s red-carpet reveal comes just weeks after sources told Woman’s Day she and husband Keith Urban, 51, had made the decision to try IVF in the hopes of welcoming another child into the world.

“Her friends think she’s just waiting for the right time to make the announcement publicly,” a source told Woman’s Day at the time.

Nicole, who shares daughters Sunday Rose, 10, and Faith Margaret, seven, with Keith, 51, and is also mum to adopted daughter Isabella, 25, and son Connor, 23, from her previous marriage to Tom Cruise, has made no secret of her long-held desire to add to her family.

“I love raising children... They make me feel good and I love being around them,” the actress revealed last year.

And in 2014, she said, “I hope every month that I’m pregnant,” before adding, “I’m baby crazy. I love babies... kids, they are just extraordinary.”

But while maternal Nicole has been open about the fact a baby would be the miracle she’s long dreamed of, friends say the couple weren’t getting their hopes up this time around.

“Nicole and Keith know they have a lot of love to give. But they didn’t want to put too much pressure on themselves,” one friend explains. “Instead, they left it up to fate to decide if the process would work – and it looks like it was meant to be.”

BUDDING STARS

As Nicole and Keith prepare to expand their family, they’re still as devoted as ever to girls Faith and Sunday.

Last week, a proud Nicole revealed during an appearance on The Ellen Degeneres Show that her daughters will be appearing in the second season of Big Little Lies.

“They were in as extras in Big Little Lies, which I’ve never told anyone,” she said. “There I am now, being a big mouth!”
