Russell, 58, looked dapper for the occasion, wearing a navy blue sports jacket over a black button down shirt and black trousers. 

He finished the look off with a pair of polished black dress shoes and a neatly trimmed beard as he arrived to the party with girlfriend Britney Theriot and his sons, Charlie and Tennyson, who he shares with ex-wife Danielle Spencer.

After a big night of fun and celebrations, the Gladiator star and his clan ducked out for a cheeky late-night snack, picking up a kebab on his way back home.

TV host Jessica Rowe, her Channel Nine newsreader husband Peter Overton and their two daughters were also in attendance 

The 52-year-old showed off her slender figure in a bright shirt with a matching skirt which flowed and billowed around her legs.

Finishing off the ensemble was a chic pair of gold and teal pumps that tied the loud garments together nicely, and a bright yellow handbag. 

The bubbly blonde arrived with her husband Peter, who kept things simple in an all-black ensemble of a shirt and jeans.

Guests at Wednesday’s party took advantage of the enormous wrap-around balcony and it’s sprawling views of Sydney Harbour.

The Oscar-winning actress splashed $2.78million on an apartment below her penthouse in the exclusive Latitude building in Sydney’s Milsons Point, according to Domain last year.

The sub-penthouse pad boasts two bedrooms and an incredible Harbour views thanks to a wide balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows that line the living room.

The sleek apartment also has a modern kitchen and access to a heated pool, gym and sauna.

Nicole and Keith already own several other apartments in the same building.

The couple first purchased the penthouse apartment in 2009 for $6million from Wizard Home Loans founder and Celebrity Apprentice star Mark Bouris, before buying the adjoining penthouses for $7 million, three years later.

The Hollywood couple also own a $2.68million 19th-floor apartment in the block, which they use as a home office when they’re in Sydney.

Her four apartments in the Latitude building, like her Southern Highlands farm Bunya Hill, are all held in company name.

Nicole hasn’t owned property in her own name since 1993 when she bought her younger sister, Antonia, a one-bedroom apartment in Mosman for $81,000.

Nicole and Keith touched down in Australia earlier this month with their two daughters – Sunday, 14, and Faith, 12 – to spend Christmas with her mother Janelle.

This year’s Christmas festivities will be particularly important for the Kidman/Urban clan, as it could be one of the last ones spent with Janelle, 81, who has been unwell since January.

In an interview with the Fresh Air podcast in January, Nicole spoke briefly about her mother’s health issues.

She said they’d managed to visit the Art Gallery of New South Wales after-hours, where they took in the Matisse: Life & Spirit exhibition, describing it as ‘soothing balm’.

‘We’re down here primarily to take care of my mother and to have her surrounded by her grandchildren,’ she said.

‘So luckily yesterday, even though Omicron is raging through this country, we were able to take her into the gallery after hours and show her the Matisse exhibit, which coming from a mother who’s raised me in the arts, it was soothing balm. Matisse was soothing balm last night.’

Later in the interview, Nicole said she felt privileged to be able to see the world through her mother’s eyes, describing it as ‘so beneficial’.

‘I’m at the place where I’m being given the chance to view the world, because of how close we are, my mum is giving me the chance to view the world through an 81-year-old woman’s eyes,’ she explained.

‘That is so beneficial right now, because she’s so cognisant. She has every brain faculty available, so she hasn’t lost anything. She hasn’t lost any memory, which is fascinating, and she’s extremely bright.

‘She’s giving me access, because she’s also very direct and very honest, and so I’m getting access to the world through her eyes, my mother’s eyes, so therefore a part of me almost at 80.’

She added: ‘It’s her perspective, obviously. There’s many different 80-year-old perspectives, but it’s her perspective, and her particular path, but I’m drinking it in and learning.’
