Together, actress Nicole Kidman and her husband, country star Keith Urban, have megawatt star power, so they always keep security close. And Kidman especially seems to treat her security personnel well, as she was spotted giving her bodyguard a hug at the Sydney Airport, when she was returning from the Cannes Film Festival.

In February 2021, the actress’s bodyguards actually rescued her and her husband from a strange situation at the Sydney Opera House. Urban and Kidman were giving a standing ovation at the House when an audience member swatted the Academy-Award winning actress with his program. After the smack, bodyguards were called over to remove the troublemaker from his seat.
It won’t be the first time that a strange occurrence like this has happened to an A-lister, but it is a prime example of just why stars need to make sure they keep trusted bodyguards with them at all times. You never know what situation might pop up.
