After nearly two decades together, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have officially gone their separate ways. The Hollywood star and the country music singer finalised their divorce on January 6, 2026, quietly bringing an end to a marriage that began in 2006 and spanned almost 19 years.
Divorce Finalised in Nashville Court
The couple’s divorce was sealed in a Nashville court, three months after they publicly confirmed their separation. The reason cited for the split was irreconcilable differences, with both parties opting for a clean, mutually respectful settlement.
According to court documents, Nicole and Keith have waived any claims to alimony and child support, choosing instead to handle their post-divorce arrangements without financial disputes. Each will also cover their own legal expenses.
Custody Arrangement for Their Daughters
Nicole and Keith share two daughters — Sunday, 17, and Faith, 15 — and the court has granted joint custody. Nicole’s residence will serve as the children’s primary home, with the actress being allotted 306 days a year with them.
Keith Urban has been granted 59 days annually, along with alternate weekend visitation, from Saturday morning to Sunday evening. Both parents will share responsibility for major decisions related to their daughters’ education, health, and overall well-being.
A Focus on Co-Parenting
One of the most notable aspects of the agreement is its emphasis on healthy co-parenting. The court directed both Nicole and Keith to maintain a positive environment for their children, encouraging mutual respect and emotional stability.
The agreement clearly states that neither parent should speak negatively about the other and that both must support their daughters’ relationship with each parent, ensuring comfort and continuity across both households.
Looking Back
Before her marriage to Keith Urban, Nicole Kidman was famously married to Tom Cruise from 1990 to 2001. She later tied the knot with Urban in 2006, and the couple became one of Hollywood’s more low-key yet enduring pairs — until their recent separation.
Final Words
While the end of a long marriage is never easy, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s divorce stands out for its calm, respectful handling — especially where their children are concerned. With joint custody and no financial battles, the former couple appears focused on moving forward with dignity and care.
