Nicole Kidman has been married twice. Both divorces were complete shocks for different reasons. The actress was reportedly blindsided when Tom Cruise filed for divorce after a decade of marriage. No one saw her split from Keith Urban coming. The two had quietly separated in the summer of 2025, but didn’t announce it until September. The actress filed for divorce one day after their separation went public. She reportedly found solace in her ex’s best friend, but is ready to move on to someone new. Keep reading for the latest.
Nicole Kidman Linked To Ex’s Best Friend
Nicole Kidman’s marriage to Keith Urban lasted longer than her first. However, they split in 2025 after 19 years together. The split came amid rumors that the country singer was hooking up with another musician on tour. The actress got revenge by fueling rumors she was romancing his best friend.
Keith Urban, Nicole Kidman, and actor Simon Baker are all Australian natives who found success in the U.S. They were all friends, but Nicole Kidman and Simon Baker’s relationship took on a whole new meaning.
Their bond recently grew even stronger when Baker and Kidman co-starred as a married couple in the Prime Video thriller series Scarpetta. The rumored betrayal by his best friend allegedly made Keith Urban start to “regret” the divorce. However, Nicole Kidman and Simon Baker’s connection has reportedly cooled as the actress set her sights on a much younger man.
Actress Allegedly Set Sights On Much Younger New Man
Scarpetta has been renewed for a second season. Simon Baker, Nicole Kidman, and Jamie Lee Curtis are all returning for Season 2. Nicole Kidman, 58, and Simon Baker, 56, play a married couple on the show, but she’s reportedly looking for a new, much younger man.
“Nicole has been on the lookout for a new, younger leading man,” a source told Radar Online. And she reportedly has her eye set on a fellow Australian. The insider revealed that Jacob Elordi, 28, made a huge impression on the actress at the Academy Awards earlier this year. Cameras caught Jacob Elordi going out of his way to find Nicole Kidman in the crowded theater and kiss her hand.
“Jacob is in awe of Nicole. He’s had a crush on her since he was 15,” another insider told the outlet. While the recently divorced actress is allegedly single, the Wuthering Heights star has been spotted getting cozy with Kendall Jenner.
Romantic intentions aside, Nicole Kidman may team up with Jacob Elordi for a project very soon, so keep an eye out for that.
