Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have always been seen as one of Hollywood’s strongest couples. Nicole, 58, met Keith, 57, back in 2005, and within a year, they got married in a beautiful ceremony in Sydney. They built their home in Nashville, raised their daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret, and seemed to share a bond that could survive anything. Over the years, they were each other’s biggest support through career highs, personal battles, and life changes. But now, it seems that their long-standing relationship might have reached a breaking point.
According to several media reports, their marriage has been going through serious trouble for some time. TMZ reported that Nicole and Keith have been living apart since early summer. Sources close to the couple claim that Keith moved out of their family home and into his own place in Nashville, which has sparked concern that their marriage may be nearing its end. Insiders say that while Keith appears to be stepping forward, Nicole is still trying to hold on and make things work. A source told PEOPLE that she didn’t want the separation and has been fighting to save the marriage. Right now, she’s focusing on her daughters and leaning on her sister, Antonia, for strength.
Neither Nicole nor Keith has spoken publicly about the situation yet, leaving fans unsure whether this separation is temporary or permanent. The news feels especially surprising because, not long ago, Nicole spoke lovingly about her husband. Back in April 2024, she said in an interview, “I’m so lucky that I have Keith, who’s just my love, my deep, deep love. That gives me the ability to go and do whatever I have to do because I know where I can come back to.”
Their love story has always felt like a fairy tale. They first met at the G’Day LA event in 2005, and though Keith admitted he was nervous to call her, the two quickly fell for each other. A year later, they married in Sydney in a warm and emotional ceremony surrounded by family and close friends. But their early days of marriage weren’t easy. Just months after the wedding, Keith checked into rehab for substance abuse, and Nicole stood firmly by his side, helping him through recovery. She once said that her decision to intervene played a big role in saving both his health and their relationship.
For years, the couple built a life away from Hollywood’s constant noise. They settled on a quiet farm in Nashville and focused on raising their daughters with simple values and a sense of normalcy. Nicole often said that meeting Keith gave her life a new beginning after her difficult divorce from Tom Cruise. “It was like my life began,” she once shared.
That’s why this news of separation feels heartbreaking for many who admired them. Nicole and Keith were more than a celebrity couple — they were an example of love, forgiveness, and partnership. Whether this is the end of their story or just another difficult chapter remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: their bond and the life they built together have left a lasting mark on everyone who believed in their love.
