Nicole Kidman Files to Divorce Keith Urban After 19 Years of Marriage
According to documents obtained by Billboard, the absolute dissolution of their marriage was granted by the Fourth Circuit Court of Davidson, Tenn., where the pair shared a Nashville residence. Neither party will pay spousal report or receive alimony, and both will be responsible for their own legal fees and expenses.
Billboard has reached out to Urban and Kidman’s reps for comment.
The musician and actress first confirmed that they were separating in September, with Kidman filing for divorce that same month. In the original documents, the Oscar winner cited “marital difficulties and irreconcilable differences,” and both parties agreed at the time to “amicably” divide up their assets.
As for their two teenage daughters, a signed parenting plan included in the final documents delegates primary custody to Kidman for 306 days a year, while Urban will spend every other weekend with the kids. Both parents retain joint responsibility for making decisions affecting the girls’ lives, but there is a note clarifying that “in the unlikely event that the parties do not agree on a major decision for either minor child, Mother shall have final decision-making authority.”
Urban and Kidman first started dating in 2005, tying the knot in Sydney in June the following year. They welcomed first daughter Sunday in 2008, followed by second daughter Faith in 2010.
“I met him later in life and it’s been the best thing that’s ever happened to me,” Kidman told CBS Mornings of her then-husband in 2022. “That man is the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”
One of the former couple’s last public outings together was at a FIFA Club World Cup game in June 2025. In May, they attended the Academy of Country Music Awards together, about two months after their home in Beverly Hills, Calif., was burglarized on Valentine’s Day.
Both Urban and Kidman have remained quiet about their split in the months since, although fans did notice that the latter appeared to hint at a big life change in an interview with Vogue conducted shortly before their separation went public. “How many times do you have to be taught that you think you know where your life is going, and then it isn’t going in that direction?” she reportedly told the publication at the time with a “rueful” edge in her voice.
During a concert in October, Urban pointedly changed the lyrics to his song “The Fighter” — which he’d previously said he wrote about Kidman — while singing it with tourmate Maggie Baugh on stage. “When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie I’ll be your guitar player,” he sang in place of the original line: “When they’re tryna get to you, baby I’ll be the fighter.”
