Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, once considered one of Hollywood’s most enduring couples, have officially separated after nearly two decades together. The news, confirmed on September 30, 2025, marks the end of a marriage that began in 2006 and produced two daughters, Sunday Rose (17) and Faith Margaret (14).
A Love Story That Lasted Almost Two Decades
Kidman and Urban met in 2005 and married a year later in Sydney, Australia. Their relationship was often described as deeply supportive, with both stars speaking publicly about their commitment to each other despite the demands of global fame and constant travel.
Over the years, they balanced careers across film, television, and music, with Kidman collecting Oscars and Emmy wins while Urban remained a staple of the country music scene.
Why They Split
According to multiple sources, the separation began quietly over the summer. Urban reportedly moved out of their Nashville home months before the announcement. Insiders say the couple had been “growing apart,” with work schedules and distance playing a role.
Kidman, however, is said to have fought to save the marriage, unwilling to let go of the bond they shared. Reports suggest she leaned heavily on her sister, Antonia, and family during the most difficult moments.
What Happens Next
While no divorce papers have been filed yet, speculation is growing over whether the separation will lead to a formal split. Attention will turn to co-parenting arrangements for their teenage daughters and the division of assets, given their substantial combined wealth and properties across the U.S. and Australia.
Kidman’s Divorce History
This isn’t the first time Kidman’s personal life has dominated headlines. Her high-profile divorce from Tom Cruise in 2001 was one of the most talked-about breakups in Hollywood history. That split, which came after more than a decade of marriage and the adoption of two children, reshaped her career and public image.
Now, nearly 25 years later, Kidman faces another turning point in her personal life, while continuing to build a legacy as one of the most respected actresses of her generation.
