Nicole Kidman Reveals Why She Filed for Divorce from Keith Urban After Nearly 20 Years

For nearly 20 years, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban were one of Hollywood’s most admired couples—appearing hand in hand at award shows,

raising two daughters, and often speaking about their devotion to family. But after 19 years of marriage, Kidman filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable

differences. Fans were stunned, and new details now reveal what led to the decision and how they plan to move forward.

Court documents list September 30, 2025, as their official date of separation. Sources say Kidman initially hoped to repair the relationship,

but Urban had already moved out, creating distance. Their agreement grants Kidman primary custody of their daughters,

ages 17 and 14. While both waived spousal support, Urban prepaid child-related expenses to ensure stability for their children.

The parenting plan stresses respect, requiring that neither parent speak negatively about the other and that both encourage

strong relationships between the girls and each parent. It also includes co-parenting classes to ease the transition.

Emotionally, the process has been harder, with Kidman leaning on family for support.

Though their marriage has ended, both remain focused on protecting their daughters. Kidman channels her energy into work and motherhood,

while Urban continues touring and recording. Their story, while painful, reflects two parents determined to move forward with dignity and respect.
