In an affectionate Instagram post on March 12th, Nicole Kidman (57) celebrated what would've been her mama's 85th birthday. Sadly, Janelle Ann Kidman passed away last September. The touching caption read, "My darling Mama and Papa, I miss you both like crazy on the day that should've been her birthday." Accompanying the post was a snapshot, beaming with joy, of Nicole's parents looking into the camera.
A flood of love and support swept through the comments section. Elle Fanning (26), her fellow actress, stated, "I love you, Nicole!" Meanwhile, Zoe Saldana (46), making her rounds in "Special Ops: Lioness," shared heartfelt sentiments, "Our hearts ache with you today. Happy birthday, Momma." And Lenny Kravitz (60), always the sentimentalist, dropped a tender heart emoji. Rita Wilson (68), actress and singer, added, "The conversation continues. May her spirit reign eternal."
Nicole Kidman's Homage to Her Mom at Venice
Back at the Venice Film Festival in September, when Kidman received news about her mama's passing, director Halina Reijn (49) announced it on stage. Kidman dedicated her best actress award to her mother, saying, "I'm floored and yearn to be with my family. But this award is all for her. She sculpted me, guided me, and gave me life." A week later, the actress and her sister, Antonia (54), took to Instagram to express gratitude for everyone's kind words.
Emotions ran high once again as Kidman accepted an award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival in January. With teary eyes, she stated, "I'm so sorry for this outbreak, but I feel my mama's spirit present right now, so this is for you." Kidman shared in early 2022 on the "Fresh Air" podcast that she wished to care for her mother more during her illness.
Losing her papa in 2014 left a gaping hole in Kidman's heart. Reports suggest that the psychologist passed on after a fall in Singapore, where he was visiting Kidman's sister.
