After almost twenty years as a couple, country music star Keith Urban and actress Nicole Kidman have gone their separate ways. Reports surfaced on September 29 from TMZ, revealing that several insiders close to the pair confirmed they have been living apart since early summer. The news marks the end of a long chapter that began in 2006 when Kidman married the The Road singer.
Sources suggest that the separation was not mutual. According to TMZ, Kidman had no desire to end the relationship and was actively working to preserve their marriage. An insider echoed this sentiment, saying Kidman’s family, especially her sister Antonia, has been providing strong emotional support during this difficult transition. The exact reasons behind the couple’s issues remain unclear.
The last time the two were seen together publicly was in June 2025 at the FIFA Club World Cup. Around that time, Kidman also marked their wedding anniversary on social media with a heartfelt post dedicated to Urban. Just a few years earlier, in 2022, Kidman had spoken warmly about her husband, calling their relationship the greatest blessing in her life.
As of late September, neither Kidman nor Urban has taken steps toward divorce, leaving the future of their marriage uncertain. Kidman, who recently finished filming Practical Magic 2, is reportedly living in Nashville with their daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret, while Urban has moved out. This is Kidman’s second high-profile separation, following her earlier marriage to Tom Cruise. For now, she is said to be focusing on her children and holding the family together while navigating this new chapter.
