The 40-year-old actress and her country singer husband Keith Urban – who married in June 2006 – confirmed they are expecting their first child together.
Nicole’s representative Catherine Olim revealed yesterday (07.01.08): “The couple are thrilled.”
It was reported this week the Oscar-winning actress has pulled out of post-World War II Germany drama The Reader – which she was supposed to start filming in Berlin with Ralph Fiennes this month – as she is worried undue stress may harm her unborn baby.
Matthew Frankel, a spokesman for the Weinstein Company who are producing the film, denied the actress has quit the movie, saying: “I am being told that the status on The Reader has not changed.”
Nicole – who has suffered miscarriages in the past – already has two adopted children with her ex-husband Tom Cruise – Isabella, 15, and Connor, 12.
She has made no secret of the fact she would like a child of her own, saying recently: “I love babies. I would say it’s in God’s hands. If God wills it, it will happen, right?”
Nicole and Keith met at a black-tie ball for Australians living in Los Angeles in summer 2005. In April of that year, Nicole said: “I have got hormones running through my system. That is why I sit wriggling, saying I want to have a baby.”
