Keith Urban owns up to blowing up his and Nicole Kidman’s marriage to ‘smithereens’ amid divorce drama
Nicole Kidman filed for divorce from Keith Urban after nearly two decades of marriage, and it has pushed the conversation about Urban’s confession in 2024. Onstage at the AFI event, the country singer spoke directly about the first months after their wedding. He admitted, “We got married in June 2006 and barely four months into our marriage, my addictions that I had done really nothing about blew our marriage to smithereens.”
Urban added how Kidman “pushed through every negative voice — I’m sure even some of her own — and she chose love.” He ended the moment with strong praise, admitting, “She has a capacity to love like no one I’ve ever met.”
However, now, sources told Radar Online that friends were “not surprised” by the separation. They claimed that those years left scars the couple could not leave behind. While Urban has moved out of the family compound in Nashville, Kidman is caring for their daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret, as she works on new projects.
The pair had continued to show public support in recent months. For instance, Kidman marked their anniversary in June with a black‑and‑white photo and a warm caption for Urban on Instagram. He replied with a heart emoji. Urban has long credited Kidman for standing by him, including in past interviews and the AFI tribute. However, insiders now claim the relationship could not find its old rhythm amid their busy schedules.
Keith Urban’s confession about his addiction blowing his marriage to Nicole Kidman “to smithereens” was once a heartwarming tribute. However, the past interview has now taken on new weight as the couple’s divorce becomes public.
