Nicole Kidman might be a Hollywood A-lister, but when it comes to making big decisions — even about her career — she’ll turn to her children and her husband for their input.
Speaking with television presenter and author Jessica Rowe at a Business Chicks lunch in Melbourne yesterday, the Oscar-winner and mother-of-four revealed “family meetings” at the dinner table are one way she makes sure everyone has a say, even if sometimes it means compromising.
The girls’ lives had already been turned on their head by the move to London and they just wanted to be back home in Nashville.
As Kidman explained, she wanted them to feel they were empowered and to know their voices mattered.
“I wanted to give them the feeling they could have an impact,” she told Rowe. “That’s a good thing for a little girl.”
Kidman has had plenty of experience managing a family spread around the world and has an adopted son Connor, 22, and daughter Isabella, 24, with former husband Tom Cruise.
Her biggest tip?
“Serve pasta and you get anything,” she joked.
