Hollywood is buzzing as Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have officially finalized their divorce, bringing a legal end to what was once one of the entertainment world’s most admired marriages. After 19 years together and a widely covered separation announced in late 2025, the Oscar-winning actress and the Grammy-winning country star are now officially single as of January 6, 2026.
Fans and media around the world are reacting to the news of their split coming just three months after Kidman filed for divorce, sparking curiosity about settlements, custody arrangements, and how the duo plans to move forward both personally and professionally.
### Their Marriage: A Hollywood Love Story That Spanned Nearly Two Decades
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban first met in 2005 and tied the knot in June 2006, launching nearly two decades of shared life that was often viewed as one of Hollywood’s strongest pairings. Together they raised two daughters, Sunday Rose (17) and Faith Margaret (15), while balancing incredibly successful careers in film and music. This marriage weathered the ups and downs of fame, public scrutiny, and demanding professional schedules — so their finalized split has generated intense public interest from fans and entertainment circles alike.
### What Happened in Court: Amicable Divorce Details
According to legal documents from the court in Nashville, the divorce was resolved largely without drama. Both Kidman and Urban waived their rights to spousal and child support, reflecting a mutual decision to handle finances independently. They agreed each will cover their own legal fees. A parenting and custody plan was signed: Nicole will have primary custody of their daughters for 306 days a year, while Urban will have visitation for 59 days and every other weekend. The settlement emphasizes that both parents must support a loving, stable environment for their daughters, even as co-parents.
Despite the end of the marriage, both stars have presented the separation in a respectful, family-first manner that focuses on preserving emotional stability for their teens.
### Why Fans Are Talking: From Red Carpets to Final Signatures
The news has reignited fascination with Kidman and Urban’s relationship — from their early red carpet moments and shared vacations to their co-parenting choices ahead of 2026. Fans are particularly struck by how quickly the legal proceedings wrapped up, and how amicably the settlement was handled given the high-profile nature of the couple. Their commitment to waive support and keep custody arrangements clear has been seen as a mature and thoughtful approach, drawing praise from fans and commentators who expected a more contentious split.
### What Comes Next for Nicole Kidman & Keith Urban
Both stars are expected to dive back into their careers with renewed focus. Nicole Kidman continues her streak of major film and TV projects, remaining one of Hollywood’s most bankable actresses. Keith Urban remains active in music, touring, and recording, with projects planned for 2026. The spotlight on their co-parenting relationship — and how they navigate it publicly — is likely to be a subject of ongoing media attention and fan discussion.
