Nicole Kidman gets emotional while dedicating award to late mother just 3 months after her death: ‘I’m still grieving’

Nicole Kidman was visibly moved on Friday while dedicating her international star award from the Palm Springs International Film Awards to her later mother, who died in September at age 84.

In footage obtained by TMZ, the “Babygirl” actress appeared teary-eyed as she credited her late parents — Janelle Ann Kidman and Antony Kidman — with giving her the “resilience,” “love” and “strength to keep moving forward” without them.

Getting more emotional, the Oscar winner went on, “I’m still grieving my mom … because I didn’t get to do it at the Venice Film Festival.”

Nicole, 57, was forced to leave the Venice Film Festival early after learning of her mother’s passing. “Babygirl” director Halina Reijn accepted the best actress award on her behalf at the time.

“Now I’m on stage and I’m back,” the “Bombshell” star went on as the audience cheered.

“Thank you for giving me the chance to say, ‘This is for my mom,'” she added.

“My whole career has been for my mom and my dad and they’re not here now but I still want to keep working and giving to the world because I love what I do and I love you all and I’m so grateful for the privilege to be a part of this film community.”

She concluded, “I’m sorry I’m crying. I didn’t want to do that but I feel my mama right now. This is for you, mama.”

Nicole was presented the award, which she earned for her role in “Babygirl,” by Jamie Lee Curtis.

Curtis, 66, stood by the actress’ side and held her hand to support her during her heartfelt speech.

Nicole has been routinely updating fans throughout her grieving process, first thanking them for their support in a joint Instagram post with her sister, Antonia Kidman, on Sept. 12.

“Every message we have received from those who loved and admired our Mother has meant more to us than we will ever be able to express,” they wrote alongside throwback snaps of their mother.

The “Moulin Rouge” star made her first appearance following Janelle’s passing at Balenciaga’s Paris Fashion Week show on Sept. 30.

In October, Nicole then gave an update on how she was feeling at the Season 2 premiere of “Lioness.”

“It’s been hard,” she told the Hollywood Reporter on the red carpet. “It’s a hard road. I’m hanging in there.”

“I wish my mama was here,” the “A Family Affair” star added. “That’d be the one thing I’d say. Everything is great with work but I wish my mama was here.”

Nicole also opened up about how her mother impacted her work in her cover story with W magazine, which was released Friday.

She recalled that Janelle was “tough in her criticism” but that her constant disapproval helped her succeed in Hollywood.
