Nicole Kidman has revealed why she is not driving the Lamborghini her husband Keith Urban bought her and is instead opting for a more sober Subaru.
The 57-year-old actor spoke about his relationship with Victoria Beckham for the latest issue of Vogue AustraliaBeckham asked Kidman what car she drives and the actress gave a surprising answer.
“Here’s the thing: My husband bought me a Lamborghini,” Kidman explained. “But I drive a Subaru and he drives the Lamborghini.”
Beckham joked about the Big little lies star driving a luxury car. “I love the idea of Nicole Kidman parking somewhere and the car doors, because those are the car doors that go up, right?”
While Kidman clarified that the Lambo was an SUV and not a sports car, she said it was more suited to her husband than to her.
“I think that's why he bought it for me… He loves fast cars, he loves all cars. That's his thing,” Kidman said. “He's a Queensland boy, he doesn't come from nowhere. Kind of like David [Beckham] “Where you go, 'I'm going to build myself and become who I am.' Like you, like me. We're self-taught, all four of us, right?”
Beckham then spoke about how much her husband David has in common with Urban. “David is very similar to your husband. He is obsessed with cars and football.”
Kidman also gushed about her relationship and how grateful she is to Urban, to whom she has been married for 18 years.
“I’m very lucky to have found him. It’s a very unstable industry and he’s my comfort. Every day we get up in the morning and go for a walk, and we hold hands. We love holding hands,” she said.
She then shared the “best” relationship advice she’s ever received.
“So there’s me and there’s you, and there’s us. And that’s just you,” Kidman explained. “No one else has what you two create, or what Keith and I create, any married couple that’s a couple, any person that’s chosen to be in a relationship together, we created this, so we decide what it’s like. If you really like the person, if you really love them, but you also really like them, God, that helps.”
She also confessed that when people ask her and Urban for “marriage advice” they don’t necessarily have any to give.
“Everyone does their own thing and creates it. I am not a relationship guru. I am just trying to find my own way,” she said.
Kidman and Urban married in 2006 and have two daughters, Sunday, 16, and Faith, 13. Kidman and her ex-husband, Tom Cruise, also share two adult children, Bella, 31, and Connor, 29.
