Nicole visited the Sydney Childrens Hospital today with her parents and with her children Isabella and Connor. At the end of the visit she then asked the media for some privacy now.

Daily Telegraph
Kidman visits sick children

June 22, 2006

NICOLE Kidman put her wedding preparations on hold today to visit sick kids at the Sydney Children's Hospital.

Accompanied by her own two children and mother Janelle, Kidman spent more than two hours visiting patients in the hospital's oncology, haematology and neurology wards.

Five-year-old burns and car accident survivor Sophie Delezio was also one of the patients Kidman spent time with, just three days before her Sydney wedding to country music star Keith Urban.

The actress was mobbed by media and fans outside the hospital but became concerned about the crush she was causing.

"If everyone can just not get too dangerous," she said at one stage.




Kidman has long been a supporter and official ambassador for the Sydney Children's Hospital, visiting patients there whenever she is in Sydney.

She's also rumoured to have asked guests at her wedding on Sunday to provide donations to the hospital and other charities instead of giving her presents.

"I was stunned she came in today," said Sydney Children's Hospital Foundation chief executive Elizabeth Crundall.

"To actually take the time out from her own wedding for a couple of hours was stunning, extraordinary and wonderful."

Crundall said Kidman hugged Sophie Delezio when the pair met by chance in one of the hospital corridors.

"Sophie showed Nicole her new hot pink boots," she said.

"Sophie was in for a dressings change. It was magic."

Kidman's children, Isabella, 13, and Connor, 11, today flew into Sydney in a private jet from Tokyo, where father Tom Cruise has been promoting his latest film, Mission Impossible III.

They were the last immediate family members to arrive for the wedding, with Urban's parents flying in yesterday.

Isabella and Connor were picked up at Sydney Airport by Kidman's security staff in a black Mercedes and sat in the back seat hidden behind tinted windows.

Kidman, 39, will marry Urban, 38, on Sunday at the Cardinal Cerretti Memorial Chapel, a gothic-style sandstone Catholic church, in St Patrick's estate, overlooking the ocean at Manly.

A large marquee has been erected at the estate, where the reception is expected to take place on Sunday afternoon.

Father Paul Coleman will preside over the service but has been asked not to talk to the media about the wedding.

"They have just asked me not to give any more interviews," said Father Coleman.

"I am loath to say anything more ... and I have always tried to honour the family's wishes."

Kidman's sister Antonia and cousin Angela are expected to perform bridesmaid duties on the big day and father Antony will walk the Oscar winner down the aisle as her family and friends watch on.

High-profile guests tipped to attend include actors Naomi Watts, Russell Crowe and Hugh Jackman, director Baz Luhrmann and media mogul Rupert Murdoch and wife Wendi Deng.

oh my gosh! i cant believe the cab driver! how scary! and getting out to take photos! grr!
the little boy was very cute! awwww wat a beautiful surprise for them all.. little sophie choose a good day to get her check up! she is so brave!
at least nic's kids got past quickly... she seemed a bit scared.. poor thing
thanks for the clip foxy! i always seem to miss the news! haha!

Yes..she wants and deserves some private time now. What poise and skill and handling them. Unfortunately she may not get her wish. Fingers crossed.

UPDATE: The sendit version is there for those having problems. No word from invisionzone yet.

Second video from Channel 7 to come soon.

PS Is everone sensibly watching the soccer... hope so...

Thanks Foxy . The photographers are following her everywhere. It must be difficult to sneak out from her own home.

Foxy, I'm not too keen on football but I love watching Brazil for their sheer flair and skill and now also the Aussies simply because you've got some fit looking players My husband was commenting the other day how Australia seem to be good at nearly everything...all I know is that they are tall and hunky....must be somethng in their diet....I must start feeding my boys vegemite too!

Thanks Foxy great video

That cab driver was out of control can not believe he had the nerve to take a photo after all most hitting them.

UPDATE: The second video is here (revisit the topic and click on the Channel 7 one). THis one has the pleas for some time to herself.
The sendit version is here now as well for the second one. Is anyone still wanting them?

Thanks for the photos nefert. I made screen caps but cannot load them up til the problem is fixed

Why Wiggleurnose...I had not noticed..... whatever do you mean. *innocent* Actually I have always thought soccer gave the best build for a man of all the football codes. end sidetrack..

It was strange for the taxi driver to do that but he did back away as he took it. I guess he was excited and wanted to go home to show his family - his wife may be a member here.

Thank u so much Foxy 4 da videos I really appreciate all ya hard work Ya a star

Thanx Nefert 4 da pics



OMG Wiggle I totally agree wiv ya I was tryin 2 watch da football but no. 2 on da Aussie team was just so hot Durin dat match I didn't kno where 2 look, both the Aussie and Brazilian team had such hot guys

Very sweet, but I wish the media would leave her be for a while. Also, do Sophie and Nicole have a previous connection? Why do the articles specifically name her?

I am new one in this board but i like nicole for a long time!
I have a trouble to see videos and i have tried many times, but it did not work!
Can you help me!

Foxy - thanks for keeping this altogether in one beautiful place!! It's been great coming back several times a day to check in and see the latest coverage that you have compiled for us. I have one quick note - I actually feel sorry for the cab driver. I am sure he didn't mean to almost bump into Nicole's car and then to take pics - well every man and his dog there were taking pics, and how could you not feel compelled to whip out your camera when...Nicole Kidman is a mere few feet away from you and looking beautiful as ever? I don't think ANYONE, like the people in that crowd around her as she exited the hospital, can help themselves but be carried away by the excitement and the swell! It must be so intoxicating that they just swarm around...

here is a nice picture of nicole and the little girl:

it is from the age

Thanx so much 4 da pic Grace It's really sweet

~Viviana~

Thanks GMM and nefert for the pics and foxy for the video!!!

thank you for the video and pics! as the reporter mentioned, she normally visits the children's hospital without any fan fair when she's in australia. with a flurry of flashes and people, i'm sure her main concern was for her children and mum as she appears to be looking around her to make sure everyone is in tow. it must be a little scary.

oh Nic is so sweet, she has a big heart!She is a lovely person and a wonderful human being.i'm very proud of her

oh, god - thank you for this picture!! its soooooooooooooooo sweet!!

thanks for all your hard work, foxy!!

i just watched the insider on abc with more coverage from sydney. they showed nicole at the children's hospital with security saying "guys, guys, guys, get back! come on!" and nicole's requests for privacy where she says "and now maybe give me a break guys, yeah ... just if everyone can just not get dangerous." the reporter said "as the day draws a little closer, security is becoming a bit of an issue. obviously with world media attention and local media attention there has been some very spritely car chases and a little bit of tension, which is causing some concern in the kidman camp. they have hired a private security firm for the wedding and local police have also been told about the plans." i can't be certain, but i believe nicole is trying to help her children into the car as they're leaving when she says "maybe the paparazzi could just give us a little bit of room." again, a bit scary because they're surrounded. the insider is advertising more coverage tomorrow including "what we've uncovered about keith's big arrival." i'm passing this along for those who can only see foxy's screencaps and not the videos.

Thanks Texas! the Insider is on for me in 30 mins and Entertainment Tonight is on in an hour! I will be sure to watch them both.
