Keith Urban is thinking of Nicole Kidman.
The “You’ll Think of Me” singer gave the Babygirl star a sweet shoutout for her 59th birthday six months after the pair finalized their divorce.
As Urban wrote on Instagram Stories June 20, “happy birthday Nicole mary!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Kidman filed for divorce from Urban in September 2025 following 19 years of marriage, though the pair reportedly separated earlier that summer.
While the country music star hasn’t addressed the breakup publicly, his pal Russell Dickerson previously shared insight into the “Long Hot Summer” singer’s new chapter.
“He’s always been focused on music, and so I think he’s just kind of doubling down on that, and it’s just beautiful,” Dickerson told Page Six at the March 26 iHeartRadio Music Awards. “I can’t wait to hear what comes out of it.”
Though Dickerson noted that he hadn’t spent “tons of time” with Urban amid his divorce, he emphasized that based on the moments the two did get to share together, the 58-year-old “seemed in good spirits.”
After the split was finalized Jan. 6, the Bewitched star—who shares daughters Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 15, with Urban—shared she was also doing well.

“I am, because I’m always going to be moving toward what’s good,” she told Variety in an interview published March 11. “What I’m grateful for is my family and keeping them as is and moving forward. That’s that. Everything else I don’t discuss out of respect.”
As for how Kidman is navigating the divorce alongside raising her daughters?

“I’m staying in a place of, ‘We are a family,’ and that’s what we’ll continue to be,” she explained. “My beautiful girls, my darlings, who are suddenly women.”
And while Kidman—who also shares kids Bella, 33, and Connor, 31, with ex-husband Tom Cruise—may be on a different path than she envisioned for herself, she’s certain she’s headed in the right direction.
“I rally against limitations,” she explained. “And I’m like that in my personal life. This year and my next few years are for the adventures.”
“I’m at a certain time in my life,” she added. “I’m going to do the things I’ve always dreamt of doing that are not anything to do with work. Just to do with exploration.”
