The difficulties of being a celebrity husband-and-wife duo were on display last night as Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban farewelled each other at Los Angeles Airport.

Keith took his wife and gorgeous daughters, Sunday Rose, six, and Faith Margaret, three, to LAX where his three leading ladies boarded a plane for Australia.

Nicole and the girls touched down in Sydney today looking fresh and relaxed.

The 46-year-old Australian actress has returned home for the filming for her new film Strangerland which begins this weekend. Shot in Sydney, Broken Hill and Canowindra, the film is a mystery drama about a couple, Nicole Kidman and Joseph Fiennes, whose lives unravel after their two teenage children go missing in the harsh Australian desert. They star alongside Hugo Weaving who plays the policeman leading the investigation.

Meanwhile Keith will remain in Los Angeles to continue his American Idol filming commitments.

”I am always looking for the right script to bring me home to Australia,” Nicole said.

“The moment I read Strangerland I knew this was a film I couldn’t say no to. I’m looking forward to working on a film in Australia and I’m very excited to be working with Joseph Fiennes and Hugo Weaving.”
