Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban get separated after 19 years

1Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have separated after 19 years of marriage. The Oscar-winning actress, 58, and the four-time Grammy-winning country star, 57, wed in June 2006 and share two daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14.

People confirmed the split, with a source saying, “[Kidman] didn’t want this. She has been fighting to save the marriage.” The same source noted that Kidman’s younger sister, Antonia, “has been a rock and the entire Kidman family has come together to support one another.”

According to TMZ, the couple has been living apart since early summer. Urban reportedly purchased his own home in Nashville after moving out of their shared residence, though officials have not determined whether divorce proceedings will follow.

The couple’s relationship began after meeting at the G’Day USA gala in Los Angeles in 2005. The couple confirmed their engagement in May 2006 and married a month later at St. Patrick’s Estate in Sydney, Australia. At the ceremony, which People described as a “romantic blend of Cinderella-style fantasy, Catholic tradition and Aussie cheer,” Urban serenaded Kidman with “Making Memories of Us.”

In June 2025, Kidman marked their anniversary on Instagram with the caption, “Happy Anniversary Baby @KeithUrban.” Kidman has recently been working on the film Practical Magic 2, which wrapped filming in September 2025, while Urban is on his High and Alive World Tour, with a scheduled performance on October 2 in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

Kidman previously married Tom Cruise from 1990 to 2001 and shares two children with him, Isabella Jane and Connor Antony. Both actors, raised in Australia, described their marriage in past interviews as a source of deep support and stability.
