Kidman’s rep confirmed Janelle’s death to People. “The family is heartbroken and asks for privacy at this time.”

The “Aquaman” star praised her mom for supporting her Hollywood career.

“She’s given me the fire to pursue the career I have because I’ve always wanted to please her… but she also carved her own path and wanted her daughters to have the same opportunity to carve their own paths,” Kidman said in a 2020 interview with The Sydney Morning Herald.

“Mum didn’t necessarily get the career that she wanted, but she was determined that her daughters would have opportunities that were equal,” she added.
