Nicole Kidman Files for Divorce From Keith Urban After 19 Years of Marriage

Court documents say she seeks primary residential parent status with a plan allocating 306 days a year with her, 59 with Urban.

Overview

  • Kidman filed on Tuesday citing irreconcilable differences and noted "marital difficulties" in the petition, according to court records.
  • The filing requests that she be named the primary residential parent and that the court approve the proposed 306/59 parenting schedule for their daughters.
  • Multiple outlets report the pair had been living apart since early summer, with Urban moving out of the Nashville family home to a separate residence nearby.
  • People reported Kidman did not want the separation and has leaned on sister Antonia and family for support, while representatives for both have not commented.
  • Coverage links the split to extended time apart due to work commitments, with Kidman filming overseas and Urban touring; their last widely noted joint appearance was in June in Nashville.
