Yesterday, Hollywood’s finest silver-screen stars got all dolled up to celebrate the very best of television at the the 69th Primetime Emmy Awards.
The Emmys’ red carpet proved to be a glittering success, especially with the abundance of celebrity couples highlighting that love still exists.
But as soon as the award ceremony kicked off, it became very clear the event was truly about our homegrown hero and gal of the moment Nicole Kidman and the the powerful women behind 2017’s smash hit Big Little Lies.
Unsurprisingly the gang, including Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern and Nic’s full-time cheerleader hubby Keith Urban, were the MPVs of the Emmys after parties.
HBO and Hulu held the biggest bashes helping Tinseltown party from dusk to dawn.
Nicole’s big night
You guys!
A kiss for his winning wife.
Nicole Kidman was all smiles at the HBO after party following her victory taking home the gong for Best Lead Actress in a Limited Series.
But the starlet, who turned 50 this year, made it very obvious she was delighted to be taking home her other golden award, husband Keith Urban.
The couple, who’ve been married for over 11 years, were like love-struck teens as they celebrated after such a momentous evening.
According to onlookers, following his wife’s big win, a proud Keith whipped out his phone and FaceTimed their daughters Faith and Sunday, saying, “She won!”
We can’t handle the cuteness!

Mum’s the word
Fellow Big Little Lies stars Reese Witherspoon and Laura Dern brought along very special dates to celebrate – their kids.
Laura won her first Emmy following her awe-inspiring portrayal of Renata Klein on HBO show.
During her heartfelt acceptance speech, Laura thanked her “amazing children, for their big, brave hearts.”
And the mum-of-two was stoked to have her 18-year-old son, Ellery Harper, and 12-year-old daughter, Jaya Harper, by her side at the after party.
Meanwhile BLL star and executive producer Reese, 41, brought her look alike daughter Ava, 18.
With the show taking home five awards, we bet they had a huge night!

This is how you go public… Officially.
While we have all known Ben Affleck is dating SNL producer Lindsay Shookus for a few months now, the duo set their relationship in stone by attending the huge award ceremony as a couple.
The 45-year-old joined Lindsay as her plus one to the Hollywood affair, but the pair avoided the red carpet, posing for just one snap following the ceremony.
According to E! News, Ben made the entire event about his girl, by drinking water only, taking photos of her, holding her purse and cheering her on.
One onlooker overheard the winning producer tell her man she was craving pizza, so he whipped out his phone and started Googling places.
No need to hunt for good will, Ben’s got it!
