Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are officially ending their marriage after 19 years together. Court records show that Kidman filed for divorce in Tennessee, citing “irreconcilable differences.” The couple, long considered one of Hollywood’s most enduring pairs, confirmed their separation through representatives. Reports indicate they had been living apart for several months before the filing, signaling a gradual and amicable separation process.
Kidman has requested to be named the primary residential parent of their two daughters, Sunday and Faith. According to court filings, Urban has agreed to this arrangement. Under the proposed terms, the children will spend the majority of the year with their mother, while both parents will share responsibilities related to parenting. Neither party is seeking spousal support, reflecting what appears to be a cooperative legal approach to the divorce.
In recent years, Kidman has significantly increased her acting commitments, taking on high-profile film and television projects after a period of stepping back to focus on family. The passing of her mother in late 2024 reportedly inspired her to return to her career more fully. Urban has continued to tour and produce music, maintaining his own successful career while supporting their family life.
Despite their separation, both Kidman and Urban have publicly emphasized their commitment to co-parenting their daughters with care and respect. Legal documents show that both parents are required to complete a parenting seminar as part of the process. Their split marks the end of a nearly two-decade partnership, but friends close to the couple describe the proceedings as respectful and focused on the well-being of their children.
