Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are ending their relationship for good. People confirmed that Kidman filed for divorce today after 19 years of marriage. TMZ first reported the news.
The development comes one day after People reported that Kidman and Urban had separated. “She didn’t want this,” a source told the outlet. “She has been fighting to save the marriage.”
“Nicole’s sister [Antonia] has been a rock and the entire Kidman family has come together to support one another,” the insider added.
A separate source told People, “Their lives were moving in different directions, and once [Urban] quietly set up his own place, it felt like the writing was on the wall.”
“It really hasn’t been a secret in their circles that Keith and Nicole have been living separately for a while now,” the insider continued. “People close to Keith felt like the split was kind of inevitable.”
Kidman and Urban married in June 2006 and share two daughters. Over the years, they spoke in interviews about their love for each other. Urban said in September 2020, “She’s just the one. She’s the one that I was searching for my whole life, and everything not only changed but had to change in me if I was gonna go that road.”
More recently, in March 2024, Kidman told ELLE that home is where her heart is: “I have a very full life with people that I love. I’m raising daughters. I’m a wife, I’m a best friend. I’m a sister, I’m an aunt. I have deeply intimate relationships with people. And that, to me, is the meaning of life—and then taking care of what we leave behind, who we leave behind and how we do that, and our sense of respect for that.”
