AceShowbiz - Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban ended their nearly two-decade-long marriage with a divorce finalized in early 2026. The couple’s split shocked fans worldwide after they announced their separation in September 2025, following reports that they had been living apart since the summer of that year.
The pair, who tied the knot in 2006, were often regarded as one of Hollywood’s most enduring and beloved couples. Their breakup came as a surprise, especially after almost 19 years together. Despite the public speculation, very few details about the reasons behind their split have been officially shared.
When asked about her wellbeing in March 2026, Nicole Kidman told Variety that her focus remained on raising her daughters and preserving the family unit. “I am (all right), because I’m always going to be moving toward what’s good,” she said, emphasizing her gratitude for her family and her commitment to keeping them intact. She also expressed a desire to respect their privacy, stating she would not discuss the matter further but that they would continue to be a family.
The divorce filing, which came just one day after news of their split went public, was reported by TMZ in September 2025. The legal proceedings concluded on January 6, 2026, officially ending their marriage. In the divorce documents obtained by Fox News, Nicole Kidman cited “marital difficulties” and “irreconcilable differences” as the basis for the divorce.
Sources close to the couple told various outlets that Nicole had been fighting to save the marriage. According to People, her sister Antonia and the entire Kidman family rallied around her during the difficult time. A source revealed that Nicole “didn’t want this [breakup]” and was actively trying to keep the relationship intact.
Page Six and Entertainment Tonight echoed these sentiments, reporting that Nicole Kidman was devastated by the separation and was working hard to save her marriage with Keith Urban. However, TMZ reported that Keith had been living apart from Nicole since early summer 2025 and was reportedly involved with another woman during the pending divorce.
The last public appearance of the couple together was at the FIFA Club World Cup event in Tennessee in June 2025. That same month, Nicole Kidman posted a black-and-white photo on Instagram celebrating their wedding anniversary, captioning it, “Happy Anniversary, baby.” Keith Urban responded with a red heart emoji, marking a poignant moment before their eventual separation.
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban share two daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret. Additionally, Nicole is a mother to Isabella Jane and Connor Cruise from her previous marriage to Tom Cruise, which lasted from 1990 to 2001.
As of the latest updates, neither Nicole Kidman nor Keith Urban has made a detailed public statement addressing the reasons behind their split, leaving fans to respect their privacy during this challenging time.
