Keith Urban has been Nicole Kidman's "rock" following her father's sudden death last month.
The 47-year-old actress has praised her husband, whom she married in 2006, for being so supportive as she battled to come to terms with losing her dad, Dr Anthony Kidman, following an apparent heart attack.
Speaking to Australia's Mamamia, she said of her spouse: "I'm incredibly fortunate that I've managed to find an extraordinary man. He has been such a rock for me, through everything, particularly the last few weeks.
"He's just been divine; so full of love and support, as have my children, as has my sister and my mum, we've been through a lot."
However, despite having her family around her, the stunning star admits she doesn't feel ready to return to work yet as she's still struggling with her grief.
She said previously: "It's rough. It's still too soon for me [to return to work], but I guess it's going to feel like that for a long time."
Although, she's determined to push on with promoting her latest movie 'Before I Go to Sleep' because she believes that's what her dad would have wanted.
She added: "You have just got to push on. My dad, in a weird way, would have ... that's always what he taught us, you just have to put one foot in front of the other. That's part of it."
Nicole and Keith, 46, have daughters Sunday, six, and Faith, three, together, and the actress also has adopted children Isabella, 21, and Conor, 19, with her ex-husband Tom Cruise.

Sharon Stone wishes she had been tougher in her youth.
The 56-year-old actress, who has three adopted sons Roan, 13, Laird, eight, and Quinn, seven, admits she went through some "hard times and confusing times" when she first started out in Hollywood, but is glad she never succumbed to pressure and changed who she is.
In a letter to her younger self in PEOPLE magazine's 40th anniversary issue, the 'Basic Instinct' star wrote: "Dear Sharon, your life right now, full of all its hard time and confusing times and times when you feel like you don't belong, is simply telling you that you are special. Not just different, but special."
She added to PEOPLE magazine: "In fact, my darling child, the very things that make you different and apart are your gifts - they are what you will bring to the world.
"The shouts and confusion about 'why you can't just be like everybody else' will become the shouts of glory as you stand your ground and be exactly as God made you: just you, an individual in all your little ways. Carry that near your heart in your alone times, now and always, and toughen up, kid. These tough times will make you strong enough for what is to come."

Megan Fox thinks she has "lived many past lives" with her husband Brian Austin Green.
The 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' actress has revealed that her connection to the 41-year-old actor is so strong that she thinks they must have known each other in another life.
Speaking about their first encounter to the Mail on Sunday's Event magazine, Megan said: "There was intense chemistry, an instant recognition. He felt it, I felt it.
"Within a week he was saying he was going to marry me. I'm sure we've lived many past lives together."
The brunette beauty - who has two children with her 'Beverly Hills 90210' beau, Noah, two, and eight-month-old Bodhi and is stepmother to Brian's 12-year-old son, Kassius - revealed that she loves being surrounded by men in her personal life.
She shared: "I love our family - I have a little football team that's going to take care of me. I like being around boys and being the centre of attention."
However, the actress admitted that she struggled with her relationship with her own family while she was growing up.
She told the magazine: "I was always in trouble because my stepfather tried to control me, so I didn't have a normal childhood experience.
"That's how people still perceive me, as rebellious and wild. But it's because I'm constantly having to fight against someone trying to control me and put me in a box."

Ed Sheeran slept rough outside Buckingham Palace before he found fame.
The 23-year-old hitmaker has revealed that he was forced to "sofa-surf" and sleep on the streets of London for over two and a half years before he found success with his debut album, 'Plus' in 2011.
As part of his new book, 'A Visual Journey', Ed documented his tragic living arrangements. He wrote: "There was an arch outside Buckingham Palace that has a heating duct and I spent a couple of nights there.
"I didn't have anywhere to live for much of 2008 and the whole of 2009 and 2010, but somehow I made it work.
"I knew where I could get a bed at a certain time of night and I knew who I could call at any time to get a floor to sleep on. Being sociable helped. Drinking helped."
The 'Don't' singer-songwriter also admitted that he spent a lot of his time trying to sleep on the London Underground to keep him sane.
He wrote: "I spent a week catching up on sleep on the Circle line trains.
"I'd go out and play a gig, wait until 5am when the Underground opened, sleep on the Circle Line until 12, go to a session - and then repeat. It wasn't that bad."
Ed - who has won two Brit Awards and three Teen Choice Awards - also noted that his homeless lifestyle had some unexpected side effects.
He shared: "I didn't have the best personal hygiene at that point because I didn't get a chance to shower. It was just: sleep on the train, session, sweat on stage, drink, sleep on the train. I had 23 dreads on one side of my head from not washing my hair."

Zelda Williams has claimed that her father, Robin Williams fought depression "his whole life" as she promoted World Mental Health Day on Twitter.
The 25-year-old daughter of the late 'Good Will Hunting' actor has urged her Twitter followers to keep fighting against depression, after her father - who struggled with mental health problems - took his own life on August 11, 2014.
On Thursday (10.10.14), Zelda posted a series of tweets to raise awareness and emphasise to her followers that if they are not alone.
She wrote: "Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay. Mental illness is often misunderstood & misrepresented, but that's starting to change. Let's end the stigma.
"Mental health IS as important as physical health, & whether there are visible signs or not, the suffering is real. It can affect EVERYONE.
"Lastly, my dad openly fought depression his whole life, both in general and his own. No matter what anyone says, it is a FIGHT. Fight on. (sic)"
Shortly after her father's tragic passing, Zelda was forced to leave Twitter after cruel internet trolls sent her disturbing photoshopped images of the late actor along with many threatening messages.
She returned to the micro-blogging site three weeks later after she shared a quote from the actor Harvey Fierstein, who starred opposite Robin in the 1993 film, 'Mrs Doubtfire'. The quote read: "Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no ones definition of your life; define yourself."

The insider added to US OK! magazine: "If Melissa's son, Cooper, says he wants the dogs, she'll keep them ... but she knows they'd have a good home with Kelly.
"Kelly already has dogs and knows she could care for Joan's as well."
Joan reportedly made provisions for her pets in her will and stated they would move from her opulent Upper East Side Manhattan condo to the home of one of her personal assistants, Jocelyn Pickett, in the event of her death.

George Clooney spent £50,000 on emergency flood supplies.
'The Monuments Men' star reportedly spent thousands of pounds to protect his new riverside home in Sonning Eye, Oxford from flooding.
Last week, George purchased the Georgian mansion - which is located right next to the River Thames - as a wedding present for his new wife, Amal Alamuddin.
But despite spending an estimated £5 million on the luxurious property, the Hollywood actor had to fork out an extra £50,000 on a new pumping system and emergency sandbags in case it floods.
According to The Sun of Sunday newspaper, a source shared: "George and Amal were caught seemingly unaware."
Once the property is water-tight, it is reported that they will split their time between the Oxfordshire home and George's mansion in Lake Como, Italy.
The couple spent a week in their new English home as part of their honeymoon, after they got married in an extravagant wedding ceremony in Venice on Saturday, September 27.
However, the famous couple had to interrupt their romantic getaway because George had to attend a Comic Con event in New York to promote his new film, 'Tomorrowland'.
He joked to the crowd: "It is not lost on me that I'm spending my honeymoon at Comic Con!"

Jennifer Lawrence has introduced Chris Martin to her parents.
The ''American Hustle' actress flew her mother, Karen Lawrence, into Los Angeles to meet her new boyfriend, Coldplay frontman, Chris Martin and they are reportedly planning to spend the holiday season together.
Jennifer's grandparents confirmed this exciting new development in the couple's relationship to The Sun on Sunday.
Her grandmother Carolyn Koch told the newspaper: "Jennifer's mum flew to Los Angeles to meet Chris. We will have to get another chair for the dinner table at Christmas.
"The family is getting so big we might have to split up for gatherings."

The 24-year-old Academy Award winner might be infatuated with her new man, but according to her proud grandfather, Colin Koch, she isn't so keen on the attention she receives when she goes out.

Colin then added that his granddaughter hasn't let fame change her fun personality.
He told the newspaper: "She hasn't changed one bit - she is so humble and down to earth."

Nicole Scherzinger wants "little English kids" with Lewis Hamilton.
The 36-year-old 'On The Rocks' songstress has admitted that she would be excited if she had children with her English Formula 1 boyfriend Lewis Hamilton because they would have a British accent.
Talking to The Sun's Fabulous magazine, Nicole said: "Oh my gosh! If I had little English kids with little English accents that would tickle me! I would take them to Hawaii and my family would be like: 'What are they saying?'"
However, she quickly added that becoming a mother isn't a priority right now.
She told the magazine: "I can't think that far ahead, though, right now."
Nicole also spoke fondly about her One Direction 'children', who she put together during the 2010 'The X Factor'.
When asked if she considers herself to be a "proud mom" to the 1D boys - Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan - Nicole replied: "I don't wanna age myself like that! Not a proud mom, more like, 'Where's my percentage?' More like a proud agent, but without getting paid. I'm waiting for my cheque."
While having children and getting married aren't on the cards for the couple - who have been dating on and off since 2007 - Nicole revealed that she and Lewis love a spot of karaoke at their friend's weddings.
She joked: "We're really good at partying at family weddings. One of us will be dancing and the other will be on the mic singing and then it will be vice versa."
