After nearly two decades together, Oscar-winning actress Nicole Kidman officially separated from Grammy Award winner Keith Urban, bringing their 19-year marriage to a close.
Following the divorce, the country star, who was initially secretive about his romantic life, has allegedly embraced single life and is said to be having a great time as he becomes more active in the dating scene.
Meanwhile, Nicole Kidman has begun turning the page to the next chapter of her life, as she is reportedly embracing love while rumors of a possible romance swirl.
Kidman officially filed for divorce from Urban in September 2025, starting the process that ended their almost two-decade-long marriage, allegedly due to marital difficulties.
The divorce would be finalized in January 2026, but not without tension behind the scenes, particularly surrounding their daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret.
Before the separation, sources reported that the former couple encountered friction in the divorce proceedings.
“Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s split wasn’t finalized without tension behind the scenes,” an insider told the Enquirer. “Ahead of reaching a divorce settlement, the longtime couple clashed over custody of their teenage daughters.”
Despite the issues early on in the process, through negotiations both parties eventually landed on the same page and came to an agreement on custody before the split became official.
The Singer Is ‘Having A Blast’ On Tour As He Is Now Back In The Dating Scene
According to the publication, the country music singer is having “a blast on the road” and has finally become active in the dating scene months after his separation from Kidman.
A source said, “Keith doesn’t have a whole lot of downtime when he’s on tour, but when he does, he definitely has a good time.”
The singer is often amidst his friends and longtime fans, and his “party” doesn’t stop even after he exits the stage.
“He’s got all sorts of friends who come out to the shows, and then afterward, there is usually a party, and there are always plenty of beautiful women invited,” the publication’s insider explained.
Urban is said to be, as a matter of fact, “absolutely dating” and is actively seeking out romantic entanglements as he’s reportedly offered up his personal contact to women while flirting.
Until the recent insider confirmation, Urban was reported to be going to great lengths to keep his romantic life private.
The “Blue Ain’t Your Color” singer allegedly had “non-negotiable” rules for anyone he was romantically involved with following his split from Kidman.
A source in a report to Globe Magazine described him as being “extra secretive” and said that “any woman who goes out with Keith has to sign a very detailed non-disclosure agreement.”
The country music star would only entertain prospects who were willing to come over as opposed to meeting them in public.
Keith Urban Is Now Ready To ‘Play The Field’
Urban is said to have taken these steps out of respect for Kidman and his two kids.
He “admits that having these sorts of rules for his love life makes things more complicated, but for now at least, that’s the only way this will work for him. He wants to keep things as amicable as he can for the sake of the girls.”
Recent sources now say that Urban is ready to “play the field” without consideration for Kidman, as the actress has “clearly moved on”.
While he was initially romantically linked to a female country music singer, those rumors were quickly shut down. However, there is a possibility he might soon come out with a new significant other as Kidman publicly moves on with her love.
Nicole Kidman Rumored To Be Starting A New Romance
While the Grammy winner explores new romantic adventures, Kidman has also reportedly started her own new chapter.
Earlier reports have suggested that the Oscar-winning actress is taking a break from romance following her high-profile divorce from Urban.
Sources noted the actress was not rushing to date anyone. As noted in a publication by Parade, she was “focused on the things that make her happy, like family and work”.
More recent reports indicate that Kidman’s sentiments surrounding romance post-divorce have since changed, as the actress is “embracing love”.
Rumors surrounding a possible romance with private equity investor Michael Reinstein started surfacing after they were photographed “cozying up” together in Italy in July 2026. The actress has not officially confirmed the rumors.
