Nicole Kidman is the unofficial queen of the 2017 Cannes Film Festival. With four films premiering on the Croisette, Kidman is spending a lot of time on the Cannes red carpet—but she’s not alone. At Monday night’s premiere of The Killing of a Sacred Deer, Kidman and her husband Keith Urban took to the carpet together and engaged in a very public, and sweet, display of affection.

Per a video posted by The Hollywood Reporter Kidman and Urban got pretty cozy as they walked their way down the carpet, with, for some reason, a choral version of Ellie Goulding’sBurn” playing in the background. At one point, Urban kissed Kidman on her cheek, then the two embraced in a long emotional hug. Urban could be seen whispering into his wife’s ear as she began to get teary-eyed. She wiped at her eyes as the two walked on, though they stayed close together as they posed for cameras.

Kidman and Urban are going beyond your standard issue celebrity P.D.A., seemingly having some kind of deep personal connection right there on the carpet. They’ve always been an especially adorable pair in public; when Kidman visited The Tonight Show in November of 2016, she sat on Urban’s lap to complete her interview. “I snuck him in,” she told Fallon.

At this year's Oscars, Kidman and Urban didn’t disappoint either; they held hands and shared a kiss on the red carpet. Cameras caught the shot, but the couple seemed mostly focused on each other.

With one more red carpet still go, for Sofia Coppola’s The Beguiled, Kidman’s time in the Cannes spotlight is only getting better and better.
