Nicole Kidman and her pregnancy

ACTRESS Nicole Kidman has revealed she is pregnant, reportedly withdrawing from a film project to protect her unborn child.

Less than 18 months into her marriage to country singer Keith Urban, the 40-year-old confirmed the long-rumored pregnancy through her publicist Wendy Day.


The Oscar-winning actress and Keith Urban, the country and western singer she calls the "love of my life", broke the news to their families over the Christmas holiday.
Kidman, 40, has struggled for years to fall pregnant.
The baby, whose expected arrival date has not yet been revealed, will be the actress's first natural child.


During their 10-year union, Kidman and Cruise adopted two children, daughter Isabella, now 14, and son Connor, 12.
The children live with Cruise and his new wife, actress Katie Holmes.
Kidman has said she had an ectopic pregnancy at the beginning of her marriage to Cruise and suffered a miscarriage at the time the couple split. .
Kidman proudly showed off her pregnancy to friends last week, allowing them to feel her stomach in public.



She has made no secret of her hopes for more children, saying: ``Keith and I would really love to have a big family.
"But I'm so happy at the moment, I couldn't ask for anything more.''
With the baby due in June, the health-conscious Hollywood star is determined to keep fit, but she is looking forward to her bust expanding.
"Being pregnant, I'll have bigger boobs," she said recently.


"That's one of the many good things I can think of that will come of it."
Kidman was tight-lipped when it came to the gender of the baby, only to say: "It's a secret".
