The divorce proceedings between Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have taken a surprising and dramatic turn. After nearly 20 years of marriage, the couple’s separation has been officially filed, with Keith Urban reportedly driving the decision.
They had been living apart for months, with Kidman caring for their daughters Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14, while Urban moved into a new home in Nashville. Court papers show Kidman asked to be the primary parent, spending most of the year with the girls, while Urban will have them for fewer days.
Reports suggest Kidman was eager to save the marriage, but Urban had moved on. Rumors also hint at tension caused by Kidman’s many intimate film scenes, something Urban reportedly resented, though this has not been confirmed. The couple’s busy schedules and growing apart appear to be major reasons behind the split.
