Nicole Kidman is facing heartbreak once again after filing for divorce from husband Keith Urban — a separation that sources say left her “shocked” and “betrayed,” much like her unexpected split from Tom Cruise two decades earlier.

The 58-year-old Oscar-winning actress filed for divorce on September 30, 2025, ending her 19-year marriage to the country music star. The couple, who wed in June 2006, had long been regarded as one of Hollywood’s most enduring partnerships.

Court documents confirm Kidman cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the divorce. Insiders told People that Urban, 57, had already moved out of their home months earlier and was allegedly seeing another woman, with rumors “all over Nashville.”

“Nicole’s hurt and feels betrayed. It’s devastating to her. She’s shocked,” a source close to the actress revealed.

Despite celebrating their 19th wedding anniversary just months before, cracks in the relationship had reportedly grown over time. Urban’s “questionable choices” were said to have played a role in the split.

The pair, who share two daughters — Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14 — have already reached a custody agreement. According to reports, Kidman will have primary custody for 306 days a year, while Urban will have 59. Child support was settled in advance, with no monthly payments required.

Kidman’s heartbreak mirrors her high-profile split from Tom Cruise in 2001. The actress married Cruise in 1990, and the pair had just celebrated their 10th anniversary when Cruise suddenly filed for divorce.

Court filings at the time revealed Kidman was “shocked” by his decision and had urged him to seek counseling before ending their marriage. She later revealed she struggled to cope with the aftermath, saying she immersed herself in work to escape her pain.

Cruise disputed claims that the separation blindsided her, telling Barbara Walters in 2002 that “anyone who’s been in a relationship knows that’s not how it goes down.”

The former couple adopted two children together, Bella, now 32, and Connor, 30.

After winning an Academy Award for The Hours in 2003, Kidman admitted that success didn’t fill the emotional void left by her divorce from Cruise. “I was sitting in The Beverly Hills Hotel and it was all extraordinary, and I was the loneliest I’d ever been,” she recalled at the 2015 Women in the World summit.

Meeting Urban in 2005 marked a new chapter. The two tied the knot a year later and became one of Hollywood’s most admired couples, often appearing together at major award shows and supporting each other’s careers.

Now, nearly two decades later, Kidman faces another painful chapter. While the couple’s inner circle may not have been surprised, friends say the actress is still struggling to come to terms with the end of her marriage.

What’s Next for Nicole Kidman?

Kidman is currently focused on her children and upcoming film projects, including the highly anticipated Practical Magic 2. Meanwhile, Urban has continued touring and recording, though his personal life is now under increased public scrutiny.

This marks Kidman’s second divorce and Urban’s first. Cruise has since gone through two additional divorces after Kidman, including marriages to Mimi Rogers and Katie Holmes.
