Nicole Kidman‘s recent appearance with financier Michael Reinstein in Italy has le to fresh romance speculation.
The outing also sparked renewed interest in her relationship with her ex-husband, Keith Urban, with insiders saying both have quietly moved on since finalizing their divorce earlier this year.
The reports come months after Nicole Kidman spoke publicly about focusing on family and moving forward following the end of their nearly 20-year marriage.
Urban is reportedly unfazed by recent photographs linking ex-wife Nicole Kidman to another man, according to a source who claims both stars have been quietly moving forward with their lives since their split.
The speculation comes after images published by Page Six showed the actress relaxing in Portofino, Italy, alongside private equity investor Michael Reinstein. The pair were also photographed together at a luxury hotel during the trip, fuelling rumors of a possible romance.
According to an insider, those close to Urban and Kidman were not surprised by the photographs.
“Among their friends, it’s common knowledge they’ve both been moving on in their own ways,” the source claimed, per reports, adding that they had simply managed to keep their personal lives out of the spotlight.
While attention has recently focused on Kidman’s social life, the source alleged that Urban has also been dating privately since the reported end of their marriage.
However, the country music star has reportedly gone to great lengths to avoid public scrutiny, choosing not to meet potential partners in highly visible locations and taking extra steps to protect his privacy, and even having them sign strict non-disclosure agreements.
Keith Urban Was Reportedly Waiting For Nicole Kidman To Go Public With New Romance
The insider further claimed that Urban has been reluctant to make any new relationship public before Kidman does, creating what they described as a “cat-and-mouse game” behind the scenes.
The 58-year-old singer reportedly faced criticism after being linked to several younger women following the couple’s reported separation in September.
According to the source, the reaction made him increasingly cautious about allowing details of his personal life to emerge.
“He took such a beating,” the source told a news outlet. “It’s no wonder he’s been afraid to let anything about his private life get out.”
The insider noted that “the moment Nicole confirms a new romance, whether it’s with this guy she’s now linked with or someone else, Keith will be more than happy to do the same.”
“He’ll actually be relieved,” the source continued. “Then he won’t have to keep looking over his shoulder or worry about being painted as the bad guy all over again.”
