While the evening was to celebrate Kidman's body of work so far, Urban used it as a chance to also celebrate his love for her.

\"Next year will be 20 years since I've been madly in love with you,\" he said. \"Congratulations baby girl, I love you.\"

Along with their two daughters, Kidman also shares daughter Bella and son Connor with ex-husband Tom Cruise.
