Nicole Kidman Breaks Silence on Keith Urban Divorce

For the first time since their split, Nicole Kidman breaks silence on Keith Urban divorce, and her message is one of grace, gratitude, and moving forward. In a new interview with Variety, published on March 11, 2026, the Oscar-winning actress opened up about one of the biggest moments of her personal life.

What Nicole Said

Speaking to Variety, Kidman said: “I’m always going to be moving toward what’s good. What I’m grateful for is my family and keeping them as is and moving forward.”

Furthermore, she made clear she would not go into detail out of respect. “Everything else I don’t discuss out of respect. I’m staying in a place of, ‘We are a family,’ and that’s what we’ll continue to be,” she added.

She also described 2025 as a quiet, difficult year. “Last year, I was quiet. I had other things going on. I was in my shell,” she admitted.

Custody and Settlement Details

Under the custody agreement, Kidman is the primary residential parent for their two daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14. The girls spend most of the year with their mother, while Urban has them every other weekend. Neither party pays child support.

Additionally, the terms of their divorce state that neither party would speak poorly of each other. Kidman has clearly honoured that.

Nicole Stays in Nashville

Even though the marriage has ended, Kidman confirmed she will remain in Nashville because her daughters have built their lives there. “We have our life here. I’m part of the city and community for 20 years,” she said.

What’s Next for Nicole?

Rather than stepping back, Nicole is stepping up professionally. Here is what she has coming:

  • Scarpetta: a crime drama series on Prime Video
  • Practical Magic 2: reuniting with Sandra Bullock
  • Lioness Season 3: Taylor Sheridan’s hit series
  • The Young People: a horror film directed by Osgood Perkins

Kidman said she is ready to embrace 2026 fully: “Now I’m in a place of saying, ‘2026. Here we go.'”

A Final Word

In closing, Nicole Kidman breaks silence on Keith Urban divorce not with anger or blame, but with dignity and love for her family. She is focused on her daughters, her work, and moving forward – and that, it seems, is exactly where she wants to be.
