Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have reportedly decided to end their marriage, surprising fans of the nearly 20-year celebrity couple. Sources indicate that the couple has been living apart since the beginning of the summer, though the news of their impending divorce has only just come to light.
According to Radar Online, Kidman was reportedly blindsided by Urban’s decision. The singer-songwriter is said to have made the call to separate, while Kidman has been focusing on holding the family together, caring for their two daughters, Sunday and Faith, during this difficult time. An insider revealed that Urban has moved into his own residence in Nashville, leaving the family home behind.
Reports suggest tension between the couple has grown since the death of Kidman’s mother last September. While they have attempted to stay in daily contact, sources describe that the distance and grief have strained their relationship, with Kidman now spending more time in London.
Other rumors claim that Urban has struggled with jealousy over Kidman’s recent film and TV projects, particularly love scenes featuring younger co-stars. A July interview highlighted Urban’s discomfort when asked about Kidman’s on-screen romances, though he declined to comment, sparking speculation about marital friction. While the reasons for the split may include multiple personal and professional factors, it is clear the couple is navigating a challenging period. Fans continue to express concern and curiosity as the details emerge about one of Hollywood’s most prominent marriages.
