Nicole Kidman Files Divorce from Keith Urban after 19 Years

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, a high-profile Australian couple married for 19 years, have officially filed for divorce, citing "marital difficulties and irreconcilable differences." The divorce filing includes a detailed parenting plan that designates Kidman as the primary residential parent of their two teenage daughters, with Urban having visitation for a smaller portion of the year. Despite previously publicly sharing their challenges, the split came as a shock to many, with sources indicating that the separation was not mutual and that Urban made the decision to leave. Throughout their marriage, Urban has praised Kidman for her support during his early struggles with substance abuse, highlighting a deep commitment that lasted nearly two decades. The division of assets appears to be amicable, with each retaining property and royalties in their own names, suggesting a long period of preparation before the official filing. Both are acclaimed artists in their fields, with Kidman an Oscar-winning actor and Urban a Grammy-winning country singer, known for their public appearances and commitment to family even amid difficulties.
