#NicoleKidman says she learned the news of her mother’s death just moments before winning best actress at the 2024 Venice Film Festival for “Babygirl”:

“I was about to go out on stage, and I found out that my mother had passed. I went right back to my room in Venice, was getting into bed, and I was completely devastated.”

Kidman went on to describe a “harrowing” attempt to leave Venice in the middle of the night to be with her family, navigating the canals in the dark before ultimately turning back.

“I remember getting into a boat in the canal, literally at night, trying to find my way to the airport, and then turning around going, ‘I can’t even do this,’” she said. “Then I went back to bed. And I was alone. My husband wasn’t there, my children weren’t there. I was there to win an award, which should’ve been a beautiful thing. That there is the contrast of life.”

“Have been off social media for a while ‘cuz I had to go kick cancer’s ass. I did so with the extraordinary help of Providence Saint John’s hospital staff, especially my nurses Finja, Patty and Courtney and my hero, the phenomenal oncology surgeon [Anton Bilchik]…. Thank you to my family… who have been my advocates and always on the ready to help me when it’s ‘my turn.’ Recouping for another couple of weeks and then ready for my next adventure. Onwards!
