Nicole Kidman's niece begs for a job after ‘risky' move to London
Nicole Kidman's niece is on the job hunt after making a 'risky' move from Australia to London. Lucia Hawley begged for 'someone to hire [her] please' while describing her relocation via Substack on Monday, per Page Six. 'On paper, this is a totally stupid decision, and honestly, frightens me,' the 26-year-old wrote, explaining that she has a 'risk-averse' personality. 'My body quite literally rejects the idea of both moving overseas being unemployed,' she continued. However, Lucia admitted that she'd experienced a 'difficult' six months in her career while 'lack[ing] direction and fac[ing] numerous rejections in the pursuit of something better.' She wrote, 'This period was pretty taxing on my confidence, and I eventually began to feel like there was just simply not much left for me in Sydney (at least for now).' The former 7Bravo host, who is one of Kidman's sister Antonia Kidman's four children with late husband Angus Hawley, called the life change a 'traumatic' one. 'Saying goodbye to Henry was incredibly difficult,' Lucia wrote of her boyfriend. 'Sometimes I am left baffled by his unwavering support and blind belief in me, championing everything I do,' she gushed of her partner. 'This kind of love — true, safe love — makes you feel like you can do anything. 'Even harder were the goodbyes to my family,' Lucia continued. 'I kissed my little brothers through floods of tears.' Nonetheless, the choice remains 'exciting' and 'freeing' for Nicole's family member. 'I believe home to be a feeling,' she told readers. 'Having a strong network of people who support you is what truly enables you to navigate the world with confidence and self-assurance.' With loved ones backing her, 'failing can seem so much less inconsequential,' Lucia explained. She concluded by pointing out that 'if it all fails, [she will] always have home.' Lucia is close with her famous aunt, and they recently enjoyed a family vacation in Croatia.

Nicole Kidman FINALLY shows her natural hair after wearing wigs for months
has given fans a rare look at her natural hair while spending time with family in Europe. The actress, 58, likes to keep her trademark auburn locks under wraps on screen and often opts for wigs and hairpieces on the red carpet. However, Nicole let her natural hair down this week as she enjoyed some family time with loved ones. Nicole's niece, Lucia Hawley, 27, is currently enjoying a getaway in Croatia and took to Instagram this week to document the trip. One photo showed Lucia cuddling up to her mother, Antonia Kidman, 54, and Nicole, with the trio clearly chuffed to be together. Like her sister and niece, Nicole wore white in the photo, wearing a flowing silk dress with a subtle floral embellishment. Nicole flaunted her naturally curly auburn hair, which cascaded down her back, in what was a rare sighting of her trademark locks. It was a far cry from the dramatically straightened look Nicole went for while attending the Balenciaga show at Paris Fashion Week just days prior. Nicole's choice of wearing wigs in Hollywood movies and on the red carpet has earned her a cult following over the years. The star has rarely showcased her natural hair since the early days of her career, and almost always wears wigs for her roles. Over the past few months, Nicole has been spotted in a series of dramatic wigged looks – ranging from sleek, straight styles to blunt cuts, and one that became a viral misfire. At this year's Cannes Film Festival, fans noticed a rare misstep from the star when the mesh cap of her wig peeked through in red carpet photos – prompting chatter online. Nicole also turned more than a few heads when she stepped out with a very dramatic look at this year's Met Gala. Nicole wore an eye-catching Balenciaga gown, yet it was her cropped, slicked-back cut and wavy fringe that had everybody talking. The day before she had worn a long ponytail she to a concert by pop star Charli XCX but replaced this for a short style that appeared soft and blonde from the front, but dark and edgy at the back. When she arrived to the Met Gala sporting a slick pixie cut, it delighted her admirers. Scores of fans shared their thoughts on the new look on X – and while it was unclear if Nicole was wearing a short wig or showing her true locks, many were praising the star for ditching her common use of hairpieces and showing her 'real' hair. One person wrote: 'Omg Nicole Kidman on the MET stairs… fiercely gorgeous. Love the short hair on this lady!' Another said: 'Wow! Nicole Kidman looked stunning. Love love love her new hair style.' Someone else said: 'NICOLE KIDMAN SHORT HAIR THE WORLD IS HEALING.' Appearing on Sunrise in May, Nicole admitted that she 'loves changing her hair' and uses hairpieces to achieve new looks. Nicole said: 'As you know, I love changing my hair.' She also addressed her edgy short hairstyle that she debuted at the 2025 Met Gala earlier this month. The star said: 'For the Met Gala, everyone was questioning if I had chopped my hair off. But no, I didn't.' Despite defending her love of transformation, Nicole recently admitted she regrets turning her back on her natural curls. In an interview with Allure, after being shown throwback photos from Days of Thunder, Nicole said: 'Why did I straighten my hair? 'I loved my hair there. That is my natural hair. Isn't that crazy?' She added a heartfelt note to young fans: 'So for all the little girls out there - embrace the curl. Do not follow in my steps and straighten your hair.'

But there's still hope for her signature ringlets. Though she rarely wears them in public these days, the Big Little Lies star says her curls can bounce back. 'I can do that to my hair still,' she shared, 'but it needs to be kind of humid, and I need to use the right product.'
