Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s teen daughters make their red carpet debut with parents

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban made their first public appearance with their teenage daughters.

The family attended the 49th AFI Lifetime Achievement Award Gala at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on April 27, which was held to honor the Kidman as the 2024 recipient of the award.

On the red carpet, Kidman and Urban posed with their two teenage daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret.

They were joined by more of Kidman's family including her sister, Antonia Kidman, her husband, Craig Marran, nieces Sybella Hawley and Lucia Hawley, and nephew, Alexander Kidman Marran.

At the ceremony, both Meryl Streep and Keith Urban gave touching tributes to Kidman ahead of her award acceptance.

In his speech, the country music star spoke about raising a family with Kidman and said “one of the most beautiful things” is getting to see his wife be a mom. 

“Her and I both come from tight four member family units as well, so we try to do the same for our girls — keeping a tight little unit wherever we are,” Urban said. “We’ll make homes of film locations all over the world.”

In addition to her two daughters with Urban, Kidman adopted two children with her ex-husband, Tom Cruise : Isabella “Bella” Kidman Cruise and Connor Cruise. The “Top Gun” star also shares daughter Suri Cruise with his ex-wife, Katie Holmes.

Though Kidman and Urban tend to keep their daughters out of the public eye, Sunday and Faith have supported their mom before. In February 2021, Kidman, Urban, and their daughters virtually attended the 78th Annual Golden Globe awards when she was nominated for “The Undoing.”

Over the years, Kidman has said on multiple occasions that she wishes that she’d had more children.

“I love, love children,” she told BBC’s Victoria Derbyshire in January 2017. “I love raising children. They make me feel good, and I love being around, and I love the ups and downs, and I love watching them grow and the things they say and teach.”

Kidman told People in January 2019 that had she met Urban before she did in 2005, they “could’ve had 10 of them!” The actor added, “But Keith says, ‘Stop the wanting mind.’ It’s far better to be completely in love and satiated with what you’ve been given, what we’ve been given.”

Though she told Marie Claire Australia that not having more children was one of her biggest regrets, she’s content taking on a motherly role other ways in her life.

“(It’s) OK because I get to mother other children,” she explained. “I have six nieces and nephew, and I’m godmother to 12. I love mothering, I love kids: they’re quirky, funny and unfiltered. And then you get to see them grow and send them on their way.”

Here’s everything to know about Nicole Kidman’s children.

Isabella Kidman Cruise, 31

During her 11-year marriage with Cruise , the couple adopted their daughter, Isabella “Bella” Kidman Cruise , when she was 25.

Kidman doesn’t often discuss her previous relationship with Cruise nor the couple’s children together. She told Australia’s Who magazine in November 2018 that she is “very private” about her eldest children, adding, “I have to protect all those relationships.”

The “Big Little Lies” star added, “I know 150 percent that I would give up my life for my children because it’s what my purpose is.”

Isabella and her brother, Connor, both belong to the Church of Scientology like their father. While Kidman has no affiliation with the organization, she told the magazine that he children “are able to make their own decisions.”

“They have made choices to be Scientologists and as a mother, it’s my job to love them,” she added. “And I am an example of that tolerance, and that’s what I believe — that no matter what your child does, the child has love and the child has to know there is available love and I’m open here.”

As for her personal life, Isabella has been married to Max Parker since 2015. In February 2018, she launched her own fashion brand, BKC. On her website , she sells t-shirts, pins, and tote bags along with prints. 

Connor Cruise, 29

Kidman and Cruise also adopted their son Connor Cruise during their marriage.

Much like his older sister, he tends to keep a low profile and stays out of the public eye. He was most recently photographed at Milan Fashion Week in February 2023.

Connor has also been photographed with his dad over the years.

He made a rare appearance with Cruise in London in October 2019. They were photographed walking toward a private helicopter, with People reporting that Cruise showed his son “aviation basics.”

The father-son duo were photographed together again in October 2021 , this time in San Francisco. They attended the San Francisco Giants vs. Los Angeles Dodgers playoff game at Oracle Park.

Connor briefly pursued a career as an actor and starred in two movies, 2008’s “Seven Pounds” and 2012’s “Red Dawn.” He has also performed as a DJ in the past, including at his 21st birthday.

Today, Connor isn’t very active on social media, but has posted in the past about his hobby, deep-sea fishing .

Sunday Rose Kidman-Urban, 15

Kidman and Urban welcomed their daughter, Sunday Rose, on July 7, 2008.

As parents, Kidman and Urban have been protective of their daughters and seldom share their faces on social media. For Sunday’s 11th birthday in July 2019, Kidman shared a photo of her daughters from the back in front of the clock at Musee d’Orsay museum.

Despite not showing their faces publicly, Kidman and Urban have shared plenty of sweet sentiments about their daughters during interviews over the years.

Kidman opened up to Glamour UK in November 2020 about how her daughters were handling periods of isolation during lockdown in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic. 

“For a 12-year-old, it’s about not being able to access friends easily — that’s a whole thing which every parent will be going through,” Kidman explained. “And then, there’s a 9-year-old, who’s socially forming. One of the hardest things is just watching them pine and yearn for their friends. I pine and yearn for my friends too.”

The “Somebody Like You” singer also opened up to TODAY’s Dylan Dreyer in September 2021 about whether his daughters were leaning toward following in the footsteps of their mom or dad more . 

Urban said it was “a bit of both” at the time, adding, “More directing than acting, which would be kind of good.”

Though their kids are still young, both Sunday and Faith made their film debut in 2019 in “The Angry Birds Movie 2.” Sunday voiced the character Lily, a yellow chick, while Faith voiced Beatrice, a purple baby bird.

Faith Margaret Kidman-Urban, 13

Kidman and Urban welcomed their daughter, Faith Margaret, on Dec. 28, 2010.

The actor has given brief glimpses of her daughters over the years in posts on social media.

In May 2019, Kidman shared a photo hugging her daughters , though only the backs of their head were visible. In January 2021, she posted a throwback video with both of her daughters as they enjoyed time near Australia’s Uluru rock formation.

When Urban appeared on TODAY back in August 2015, he shared some of his daughters’ musical abilities when asked if they played any instruments yet.

“Sunday and Faith, they have a few instruments they like to play,” he explained. “A little bit of piano and Faith, she’s got a little pink guitar that she likes to play as well. Bongos, maracas, tambourine, triangle — she’s just getting started.”

Like other celebrity parents, Kidman’s daughters help to keep her humble.

“The great equalizer is showing the Emmys to Sunny and Faith,” Kidman told TODAY in October 2017. “They don’t want them. It’s so funny. It’s such a kid thing. Sunday was like, ‘Mama, I know you said we could put in our shelf but it won’t fit. We have enough things on the shelf.’”

Kidman also opened up about how she was raising her daughters to be outspoken and strong women, saying she would lead by example instead. 

“So much is stepping aside and letting them become who they are,” said Kidman. “I don’t know if I’m teaching that as much as giving them their voices. I let them negotiate so they get a sense of who they are and what they can achieve and accomplish.”

Isabella Jane Cruise: What We Know About Tom Cruise & Nicole Kidman's Daughter

Coming off of the success of their earlier roles in film, Hollywood's heartthrob Tom Cruise and Australia's bombshell Nicole Kidman met on the set of "Days of Thunder" in 1990. The pair displayed a great sense of romantic chemistry on camera but their chemistry carried off camera, resulting in an 11-year-long romance. After getting married the same year they met, the two eventually sought out a life with children. In 1992, Tom and Kidman adopted their first child, Isabella Jane Cruise, and in 1995, they adopted their second child, Connor Antony Cruise.

As any father would, Tom suggested that he made a promise to be the best father figure for his little girl the same day she was born (via  Esquire ). Although many onlookers question his involvement in his children's lives, Tom — along with Kidman — strived to keep their firstborn away from the public, which is a life she seems to prefer. Though Isabella strays away from the limelight, we've gotten to see her grow into quite the spectacle. From relocating to London to owning a clothing line, Isabella Cruise seemingly cultivated a life she could be proud of .

Isabella was adopted after Kidman's traumatic ectopic pregnancy

Born on December 22, 1992, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman adopted Isabella Cruise shortly after her biological mother gave birth to her. According to the "Moulin Rouge!" actor, she knew she wanted to have babies shortly after tying the knot in 1990 (via People ). Unfortunately, her complications with pregnancy made this a difficult task. In an interview with Marie Claire in 2007, Kidman revealed that she had an ectopic pregnancy — a pregnancy that occurs outside of the uterus — at the beginning of her marriage to Tom. "It was incredibly traumatic," she told the publication. "What will be will be. It's in God's hands."

Kidman's sorrow quickly turned to optimism as she began to consider adoption. For her, there was no issue in doing so since she felt like there were no differences between raising a biological child versus an adopted one (via YouTube ). Luckily for Kidman and Tom, this worked out and they were able to hold Isabella the same day she was born. To Kidman, this proved to be a momentous occasion as she felt an instant connection with the newborn. "I look into those eyes and that crazy love happens — it's crazy love because you'll do anything when you have a child. It opens up a part of your heart you didn't even know was there," Kidman said (via the Independent ).

She stayed with her father following his divorce

In 2001, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's decade-long relationship ended. From marrying the same year they met, Kidman revealed that since they were madly in love, their divorce was a "shock to the system" (via E! News ). While it was a hard time for Kidman, the two had to cooperate as co-parents. Following their divorce, Tom and Kidman shared custody of their kids, Isabella and Connor Cruise. Still, Tom ultimately became a full-time parent as the pair decided to live with him in Los Angeles, California instead.

Though she made an effort to see them regularly, she has since suggested that she wouldn't mind them living with her. "They live with Tom, which was their choice. I'd love them to live with us [her and Keith Urban], but what can you do?" Kidman said in 2010 (via the  Daily Mail ). Kidman seemingly didn't want to force the issue as she knew that Isabella and Connor were old enough to decide what was best for them. Kidman revealed that she accepted their living arrangements since she felt like it was her responsibility to let them lead the life they wanted. "My daughter and son, their life is molded by the way I live," she shared (via HuffPost ). "If I wasn't willing to take on that responsibility, I shouldn't have adopted them."

At a young age, she learned how to respond to false rumors very well

Life under megastars like Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman can sometimes result in unnecessary attention from the general public. With her father oftentimes on the receiving end of harsh criticism, it can be tiresome reading crude remarks about him and watching it affect his livelihood as a human being. From prying interview questions to misleading rumors, Tom, on many occasions, has also found himself dealing with unnecessary public attention in a poor manner. While he usually tries to make smart decisions regarding his family's image, he suggested that Isabella Cruise is very good at keeping her composure in the face of false rumors.

During an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2008, Tom revealed that if something were to come out that caused Isabella and Connor Cruise to react negatively, he'd reiterate that everything is okay and not to get caught up by what the media says. "They've grown up with that ... I'm sure there's stuff that they don't like ... and you go, 'Okay, that happened, things go wrong, but don't live in it. Don't live in that because today is a new day and there's plenty of tomorrows,'" he said  (via YouTube ). "They're good people, my children. I'm proud of them. ... I don't want them to worry about anything."

She worked as a hairdresser in London

As the daughter of acting megastars, many assumed that Isabella Cruise would follow in her parent's footsteps. Though it would've been fulfilling to carry on their legacy — which Connor Cruise did briefly — Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman encouraged their daughter to follow her own path. As an imaginative child, Tom jokingly stated in an interview that Isabella doesn't seem to have an interest in acting. "I don't know if Bella will be an actress," he said (via the Daily Mail ). "Right now, she says she wants to be a bear when she grows up."

Instead, she decided to venture off into the world of fashion, a passion her ex-stepmom, Katie Holmes, entertained. After briefly working for Holmes' clothing line, Holmes & Yang, Isabella enrolled in Sassoon Academy in London to pursue a career in cosmetology. There, Isabella completed a 12-month diploma course which resulted in her getting a job as a hairdresser. Isabella then attended the prestigious institute, Delamar Academy of Make-Up and Hair — a university that is responsible for several of its graduates becoming hair and make-up artists in the TV and film industry. While she still doesn't show interest in working in front of the camera like her parents, the 30-year-old appeared to have an interest in doing hair and make-up for film.

She allegedly called her mother a 'suppressed person'

Following Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise's divorce, rumors began to circulate surrounding Kidman's relationship with Isabella and Connor Cruise. The sporadic nature of their split coincided with Kidman seemingly leaving Scientology — a celebrity-centric religion that garnered a bad reputation for its cult-like practices. From homeschooling to being under heavy supervision, many believe that the cause for Kidman's absence from the Cruise household is rooted in their opposing religious beliefs. 

In an interview with Who Magazine , Kidman stated that while she doesn't share the same beliefs as her children, she still loves them dearly. "They are able to make their own decisions," she told the publication. "They have made choices to be Scientologists and as a mother, it's my job to love them."

An excerpt from Leah Remini's memoir  "Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology" suggested that Isabella was not on good terms with her mother. In the book, the ex-Scientologist stated that she started to get close to the two kids when she was heavily involved with the Church of Scientology. Remini questioned the nature of Isabella and Connor's relationship with their mother. One day, the "King of Queens" star asked them if they visit their mother frequently. According to Remini, Isabella replied: "Not if I have a choice. Our mom is a f***ing SP [Suppressed Person]" (via Us Weekly ). Within the church, a "suppressed person" is a label used to describe anyone who opposes Scientology.

She didn't invite her parents to her wedding in 2015

Alongside her professional pursuits, Isabella Cruise seemingly built a life in London worth staying for. Although her family resides in the United States, Isabella prefers a secluded life away from intrusive photographers capturing every second of her life. In 2015, Isabella quietly got married to British I.T. consultant, Max Parker. With publications confirming the news one month after it occurred, Isabella opted for a small ceremony with only a few in attendance. Surprisingly enough, not even her parents got an invite for this momentous occasion.

The small ceremony was held at the Dorchester Hotel in London, with her parents nowhere to be found. While this stirred up questions regarding her relationship with her parents, reports state that Tom Cruise paid for the event — suggesting that he approved of the marriage. As for Nicole Kidman, she reportedly didn't know about the wedding, to begin with. Sources claim that the wedding was "Scientology-themed," which could explain the reason for her absence. 

Though we're sure Tom and Kidman are happy for Isabella, it raised further questions that the public wanted answers to. In one interview, Isabella attempted to put those rumors to rest saying that she's still in touch with her parents, despite their absence from her wedding. "Of course we talk," she stated (via Hello! ). "They're my parents!"

Isabella is a certified auditor within the Church of Scientology

According to Leah Remini, Isabella Cruise's childhood heavily revolved around Scientology thanks to her father. Through this, she, Connor Cruise, and even Suri Cruise experienced years of homeschooling, Scientology-based camps, and heavy surveillance under the Church of Scientology. Despite Nicole Kidman's opposing views on the celebrity-centric religion, Isabella held on to her beliefs as she grew up. So much so, that she eventually became a certified auditor within the Church of Scientology (via People ). In Scientology, auditors are higher-ups who help others through their self-examination process — ultimately guiding them as they convert to their religious lifestyle. Given the list of responsibilities bestowed on auditors, there need to be preparations in place for those seeking the position. 

According to Isabella's testimonial, she revealed that after a string of tests, she finally became an auditor. In her testimonial, she expressed her gratitude toward her father, her aunt (Catherine Cass Mapother), and the church for encouraging her to finish the training. "It turned out it was exactly what I needed," she stated (via Tony Ortega ). "I dragged out the testing and correction, just made it through the drilling and then finally began my auditing adventure, and wow, I wasn't prepared. This is what I had been searching for. The missing piece."

She named her clothing line after her mother

While Connor Cruise has multiple passions ranging from music to competitive fishing, a quick peek at Isabella Cruise's Instagram will show you that she's a person of many interests as well. Though her venture as a hairdresser seemed to be her calling, Isabella is not afraid to flex her artistic skills to her string of followers online. Aside from the occasional selfie, Isabella's feed is flooded with several dark conceptual pieces mixed with portraits of public figures, like Guy Fieri. Isabella, however, used her background in fashion to capitalize on her artistic vision. 

In 2018, Isabella flexed her creative muscles when she launched a clothing line named,  Bella Kidman Cruise . From T-shirts to tote bags, her online store has a wide range of self-made designs available for purchase. Aside from the incredible business venture, fans have grown aware of the fact that Isabella named the company after her mother, Nicole Kidman. Not only did Isabella pay homage to her mom with one of her designs that read  "Protect your mother and she'll protect you," but she also posted a portrait of the "Big Little Lies" actor in 2020 (via Instagram ). In an interview with Entertainment Tonight , Kidman expressed her love for this creative project, stating: "I think it's such a great way to express [yourself] and Bella is a beautiful drawer as well. She's always been able to draw."

She was a contributing artist for an art exhibit hosted by Courtney Love

September 17th, 2021, marked the 30th anniversary of Hole's debut album, "Pretty on the Inside." Coming from a punk influence, the band sought to tackle a range of topics regarding self-confidence, religion, parental neglect, and most importantly, women's rights. Paired with intentional anarchic-like instrumentation, this was the band's first major success — selling over 200,000 copies in the United States. To celebrate the monumental milestone, lead singer, Courtney Love, arranged a philanthropic event at Parliament Tattoo in London in October in hopes to support Treasure Foundation and Clean Break Women's Charities — both of which are organizations that represent similar values to their album was built around.

Through this, Courtney Love invited several artists to donate their work. As an artist who resides in London, Isabella Cruise participated in the event. In light of the news, Isabella announced her involvement in the art exhibition and expressed her gratitude on Instagram . "Is this real life?" she wrote. "I am beyond excited to be taking part in this exhibition with the incredible Courtney Love and Parliament Tattoo, to celebrate 30 years of Hole's Pretty on the Inside. All for charity. What a dream."

She's seemingly not close with Suri Cruise

Tom Cruise started dating Katie Holmes  in 2005. With Isabella Cruise living with him at the time, Tom had to be cautious of how she and her brother, Connor Cruise, perceived his potential love interest. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Tom revealed how they quickly embraced Holmes because of her love for sweets. From there, the two were more than happy to make her a part of their household — which made breaking the news about their baby sister a lot easier. On April 18, 2006, Suri Cruise was born, and according to the "Mission: Impossible" actor, they were extremely welcoming to their half-sister. "They were really excited about it," he told Winfrey (via YouTube ). "It was that whole thing of having a little sister. "

While Isabella had a close relationship with Suri following her birth, another nasty divorce reared its ugly head. According to Connor's  Instagram page , Isabella apparently maintained a strong connection with her brother since the divorce but left Suri out of their appreciation posts for each other. Considering that 2010 was the last time Isabella made a public outing with Suri, Holmes' sudden departure from the Cruise household potentially strained Isabella's relationship with her half-sister. Since the kids lead private lives, it's difficult to determine the status of their relationship. It's safe to assume, however, that Isabella and Suri aren't as close as they were when they were children.

Isabella is reportedly rebuilding her relationship with her mother

Following her parents' divorce, it seemed as though Isabella Cruise's relationship with Nicole Kidman was nonexistent. While divorce is hard for all parties involved, a string of events that occurred after their split made us believe that the Cruise kids were not on good terms with their mother. In 2012, Isabella revealed that they were still in touch, stating: "I love mom. She's my mom. She's great. I see her sometimes and I speak to her" (via the  Daily Mail ). However, in 2018, fans speculated that Kidman's relationship with Isabella and her brother grew sour since she left them out of her speech after winning an Emmy — even though she mentioned her other kids, Sunday and Faith Urban.

In addition to naming her clothing business after her, it seems that Isabella is taking the necessary steps to rebuild her relationship with her mother. According to RadarOnline , an insider told the publication that despite their prior differences, Isabella and Kidman are making an effort in improving their mother-and-daughter connection. "Bella and Nicole have really grown closer over the past few months," the insider stated. "They're both focusing on moving forward with their relationship." Although we're sure they never stopped loving one another, it is heartwarming to see the two mend their broken bond.

Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's Daughter Bella Shares Rare Selfie During Tense Moment

Isabella "bella" kidman cruise offered a rare glimpse at her personal life on july 7, as the daughter of tom cruise and nicole kidman posted footage to social media of herself with "fingers crossed.".

Fans anxious for new photos of Tom Cruise and ex-wife Nicole Kidman 's notoriously private kids have become resigned to catching them if they can. 

Indeed,  Isabella "Bella" Kidman Cruise shared a rare selfie to her Instagram Story on Wednesday, July 7 of herself while watching England's national soccer team take on Denmark during the Euro 2020 semifinals. The black-and-white footage showed her with a tense expression while dressed casually in a T-shirt as the game was tied at the end of regulation. 

"My face during extra time... fingers crossed," the 28-year-old artist captioned it, adding an emoji of the English flag. Bella and Max Parker , her husband of five years , live together in London, England.

Luckily for her and any other of the nation's supporters, England's squad prevailed 2 to 1 and will face Italy in the final at London's Wembley Stadium on Sunday, July 11. 

Bella infrequently provides glimpses at her personal life. Back in February, she posted a black-and-white selfie , along with a caption drawing attention to her artwork that was for sale. 

"Same face, new prints now available on the shop," she wrote at the time. 

Tom and Nicole, who ended their 11-year marriage  in 2001, also share 26-year-old son  Connor Cruise , in addition to Bella. Connor, who is similarly selective about what he shares publicly, appears to be just as avid a sports fan as his sister.

Breaking news, tom cruise and nicole kidman’s daughter bella posts rare selfie: ‘what a summer’.

Finding images of Tom Cruise’s adopted daughter is usually a mission impossible — until now.

Isabella “Bella” Kidman Cruise made a rare social media appearance on Sunday, Sept. 17, when she shared a selfie on her Instagram .

In the carefree picture captioned “What a summer,” the 30-year-old looks coyly at the camera. Donning a simple white top with a cute bow decorating her décolletage, the brunette shows off her appreciation of jewelry wearing a number of gold necklaces around her neck and a gold ring in her nose.

Bella, an artist, normally shares images of work with her nearly 52,000 followers.

According to her website , “Bella has been drawing ever since her wee hands could pick up a pen. Since that point in time she’s been evolving in her arts.”

Bella sells her work on reasonably priced totes, pins and limited edition prints. “Her go-to medium was pen and paper for most of her life,” the site explains. “However, she is now venturing into other formats and mediums. Including digital. Which has been a bit of a game changer in her opinion.”

Bella was adopted by Cruise, 60, and Nicole Kidman, 55, in 1992 after the couple married in 1990. The Hollywood pair also share a son Connor, 28.

Bella and Conor have chosen to stay mostly out of the limelight and in the past their superstar parents have chosen to keep their children’s lives out of the public eye as well.

“I’m very private about all that,” the Academy Award-winning actress told Australian outlet  Who  in 2018. “I have to protect all those relationships. I know 150 per cent that I would give up my life for my children because it’s what my purpose is.”

Kidman is set to be awarded the Life Achievement Award at the The American Film Institute (AFI) ceremony on June 10, but it is rumored that Connor and Bella may not be in attendance although they have both been invited.

“Nicole knows Connor is extremely loyal to his dad so she doesn’t expect him to come, but the invitation is there for both of them,” an alleged source tells  New Idea . ‘It’s an event they have every right to celebrate along with the rest of Nicole’s family.”

The source added: “Nicole is trying to limit her expectations, but is clinging to hope Bella might make it.”

Also set to be in attendance at the ceremony are Kidman’s two daughters Sunday, 14, and Faith, 12, whom she shares with her husband Keith Urban.

Tom cruise and nicole kidman’s adopted daughter, bella, shares rare photo of herself.

Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman’s adopted daughter, Bella, shared a rare social media snap of herself on Monday.

The rarely-photographed artist, 30, showed off her nose ring as she smoldered at the camera while reflecting on the last few months of the year.

“What a summer,” she captioned the photo, which was shared to her Instagram Story .

Bella, the eldest child of the Hollywood stars, wore a lacy sheer blouse over a black top and accessorized with a chic black beret.

She also rocked a fresh face of makeup, opting for just a light swipe of mascara on her eyelashes, a touch of blush on her cheeks, and bushy brushed-up brows.

Bella topped off her look with a red lip.

Bella also shared an Instagram video of an ocean sunset, captioning the post, “In my element 🌊.”

The illustrator, who often uses her social media account to share her abstract masterpieces, tends to keep a low profile – but does like to switch up her ‘do.

In March, she surprised followers when she debuted her new choppy haircut in another rare selfie on Instagram.

Bella is known for experimenting with different hairstyles, from dying her hair blond or red to rocking a chic bob or a short fringe.

The designer, who launched a clothing line in 2018 and lives in London with husband Max Parker, rarely shares glimpses of her personal life and steers clear of high-profile events.

Tom, 61, and Kidman, 56, adopted Bella and her brother Connor, 28, during their 11-year marriage. The “Big Little Lies” alum and “Top Gun” star divorced in 2001.

Kidman has previously addressed Bella and Connor’s decision to follow in their father’s footsteps and practice Scientology, sharing that she is supportive.

“They are adults,” the actress said in a 2018 interview with Who.com . “They are able to make their own decisions. They have made choices to be Scientologists and as a mother, it’s my job to love them. And I am an example of that tolerance and that’s what I believe – that no matter what your child does, the child has love and the child has to know there is available love and I’m open here.”

After her split from Tom, Kidman married Keith Urban, 55, in 2006 and the couple welcomed two daughters: Sunday, 15, and Faith, 12. Kidman gave birth to Sunday in 2008 and welcomed Faith via surrogate two years later.

Rumors have swirled for years that Bella is estranged from her parents, though she shut down the rumors in 2016.

“Of course [we talk], they’re my parents,” Bella told New Idea  of her relationship with Tom and Kidman, adding that anyone who believes the gossip is “full of s–t.”

However, she added fuel to the fire when she only thanked her youngest daughters during her awards show acceptance speeches in  2017  and  2018 .

But all seemed fine when Kidman thanked “all” her children while accepting her 2018 Critics’ Choice award.

Meanwhile, Tom seems to maintain a good relationship with Connor as the father-son duo joined forces at the actor’s New York City promotional event for “Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning” in July.

The “Jerry Maguire” alum also shares daughter Suri, 17, with ex-wife Katie Holmes, whom he was married to from 2006 to 2012.

Isabella "Bella" Kidman Cruise is feeling happy with her new hairstyle.

The 30-year-old daughter of Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise revealed her latest beauty move on social media.

In a rare selfie shared to her Instagram Story Wednesday, Bella shows off her new dark brunette shoulder-length shag haircut and bangs.

The star visited stylist Jennifer Ball , co-owner of Laundry for Hair, who from the looks of her social media profile, specializes in the edgy, shag style.

Bella accessorized her new mane with a black beret, berry-hued lipstick and a white lace top. "Hair is giving me so much joy still. Thank you," she captioned the snapshot tagging her hair pro.

This wouldn't be the first time Bella has turned up the volume regarding her hairstyles.

Last September, she posted a rare selfie that gave fans a look at her hair at the time. It appears that Bella decided to take her layers darker after sporting an auburn shade and a slightly more close-cropped 'do.

She paired her rock 'n roll shag with a The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou graphic tee shirt, a red beanie and a bandana tied around her neck. Her jewelry of choice was a dainty gold septum ring.

The post was simply captioned with a cowboy hat-wearing smiley face emoji.
