Nicole At 50 - ‘I've Never Been Happier!'

After a starring role at Cannes, Nicole is on top of the world…

What do you buy a woman who has the world at her feet? This is surely the question Nicole Kidman’s friends and family are asking themselves on the eve of the actress’s 50th birthday. Yet Nicole would likely tell them not to bother with gifts – she already has everything she wants from life, and more.

Indeed, the star, whose home life is now blissfully stable and whose career has arguably reached a new pinnacle, is telling friends she’s never been happier than she is right now.

“Nic feels totally fulfilled and like her whole life has fallen into place – and she says she’s going to make the next 50 years even more memorable than the first,” a close friend tells Woman’s Day.

Nicole, who arrived in Australia last week to film Aquaman, enjoyed a pre-birthday dinner with her mother Janelle in Sydney. It was a fairly low-key affair compared to her countless award show and red carpet appearances in recent months – but to the mother of four, for whom family will always mean the most, it was no less special.
