Sunday Rose was born to her parents Nicole Kidman and country singer Keith Urban on July 7, 2008, in Nashville, per People. Although Kidman is Australian, she previously told People that her children have embraced their Nashville roots – and even had some of their mother’s twang. “My daughters are Nashvillians! They have a southern drawl,” she told the publication in 2016. “They have some Aussie. They have an unusual mix. They’re hybrids.”

What is the inspiration behind Sunday Rose Kidman Urban’s name?

Sunday Rose’s name is a unique one for sure, with many fans wanting to know the meaning behind it. According to Reuters, Kidman’s father Antony told media that it was inspired by prominent Australian arts patron Sunday Reed, and that it was him who’d suggested it to the actress.

“I have read a bit about Sunday Reed and her husband John. She was a key mover and shaker in the arts around the beginning of the century. The name Sunday struck me as being a nice name for a woman, so my wife and I mentioned it,” he told the Daily Telegraph in 2008.

She’s shown an interest in filmmaking and acting

It seems Sunday may be set to follow in her mother’s footsteps in future, with Kidman saying she was interested in becoming a director in a 2018 interview.

“The stories that [women are] telling and the way in which we’re doing it creates opportunities for not only our generation but the generations to come,” Nicole Kidman told Naomi Watts in an interview for Time’s 100 most influential people in the world. “And I’m raising a little girl that’s showing an interesting in directing right now,” she added. “I want her to have a path for that.”

The Big Little Lies actress also talked about Sunday’s acting skills at the 2017 Palm Springs International Film Festival. “My daughter just got cast in her school play,” she told E! News at the event. “So, that’s been the main priority, learning lines with her.”

She made her red carpet debut at the AFI Life Achievement Award Gala

She’s very private

It seems Kidman and Urban’s children are very private – and intend to keep it that way for now. Having only recently made their red carpet debut and without any public social media, Sunday Rose clearly isn’t jumping into the spotlight just yet.

Nicole Kidman has four children in total. She shares two adopted children, Bella and Connor, with ex Tom Cruise, and has two daughters, Sunday and Faith, with her current husband Keith Urban.

There’s long been speculation around whether Nicole Kidman is estranged from her adopted children due to their links to Scientology, and in 2019 the actress addressed the issue. She said in an interview that “Motherhood is about the journey,” later adding that “they have made choices to be Scientologists. It’s our job as a parent to always offer unconditional love.”
