Nicole Kidman files for divorce from Keith Urban: what was the reason.
According to The Sun: Nicole Kidman filed for divorce from Keith Urban just a day after confirming their separation. This step is a stark testament to the unexpected end of their decade-long love story.
According to reports, the musician initiated the breakup, wanting to end the relationship as far back as last June when the couple first separated.
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban divorced after 19 years of marriage on September 29, 2025 SplashFollowing the news of their separation, Nicole, who is 58, officially filed for divorce. It is currently unclear in which city she filed for divorce, as the couple has several shared homes in Los Angeles, Nashville, and Australia.
According to TMZ, Nicole attempted several times to reconcile, but Keith, 57, appeared 'unsatisfied' and intent on divorce.
The couple has not been together since June.
Sources close to Nicole and Keith claim that Keith has already begun dating another woman.
The End of the Show
News about their separation surfaced on Monday when insiders reported that the star couple took a break from marriage.
Reportedly, Nicole and Keith, who married in 2006, have been living separately 'since the beginning of summer.'
However, the details that led to their separation are not yet known.

Sources report that after the separation, the couple's two children remained in Nicole's custody, who is 'trying to keep the family together during this difficult time while Keith is absent.'
It is worth noting that this was not Nicole's idea, as she attempted to preserve their union, but Keith 'caught her by surprise.'
According to reports, it is confirmed that Keith initiated the divorce due to feelings of 'dissatisfaction.'
“There is no intimacy anymore, they are just fulfilling their duties as spouses. If this separation helps them to reconcile, that would be great, but Keith should have told her he was unhappy.”
Sources also note that 'Keith purchased his own place in Nashville and moved out of their shared home.'
The couple lived together with their daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14, in Nashville, Tennessee.
Nicole is also the mother of two older children she adopted during her marriage to former husband, Tom Cruise, 63.
Although the stars did not disclose details about their relationship, they have created a significant distance between each other lately. Nicole has recently spent a lot of time in England filming, which may have impacted their relationship.
It is known that the actress spent $87,288 a month on living in a luxurious home belonging to Boy George – without Keith.
Sources reported on their communication: “They try to stay in touch daily while apart, but it’s shocking how much time they have spent apart since last fall when Nicole’s mother passed away.”
Both Nicole and Keith grew up in Australia but only met as adults when their careers were already at their peak.
They met at a gala evening in 2005 and quickly fell in love, marrying the following year.
