In a major Hollywood development, Oscar‑winning actress Nicole Kidman and country music star Keith Urban have officially finalized their divorce, ending their nearly 20‑year marriage and dividing a reported $282 million property and asset portfolio in an amicable settlement.
A Split After Nearly Two Decades
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban — once one of the most admired couples in entertainment — confirmed the legal end of their marriage on January 6, 2026, when a judge in Nashville, Tennessee, signed off on their divorce papers. The separation follows Kidman’s divorce filing in September 2025, which cited irreconcilable differences after years of living apart and busy careers.
Massive Asset Division
The couple’s global asset holdings are estimated at around $282 million, with properties spread across the U.S. and Australia. Rather than a contentious split, Kidman and Urban reached a private agreement to divide their wealth. All assets — including luxury homes, bank accounts, investments, vehicles, and personal items — were divided by mutual agreement. Each keeps what they already own and retains other holdings as negotiated.
Their property empire reportedly includes a mix of high‑value locations: luxury apartments in Sydney, a mansion in Beverly Hills, a Manhattan duplex, and other estates, such as a farm in New South Wales.
No Alimony or Child Support
In a noteworthy part of the settlement, both Kidman and Urban waived any claims to spousal support and child support. Because each reportedly earns in excess of $100,000 per month, they agreed that neither will pay ongoing support to the other. Each will cover their own legal costs and personal expenses moving forward.
The divorce agreement also includes a custody arrangement for their two daughters, Sunday Rose (17) and Faith Margaret (15). Kidman was designated the primary residential parent, with the girls living with her 306 days per year. Urban will spend 59 days annually with them, generally structured as every other weekend. Both parents share joint responsibility for important decisions regarding their children’s upbringing.
A Peaceful Settlement
Unlike many celebrity divorces that play out publicly, Kidman and Urban’s split was resolved quietly and professionally. Court documents indicate that neither side engaged in extensive legal battles or public disputes over assets or custody, with both parties favoring an amicable resolution to protect their family’s privacy.
Life After Divorce
Following the divorce, both stars continue their respective careers. Kidman, a celebrated actress with numerous film and television projects, maintains a base in multiple cities, including Nashville and Sydney. Urban, a country music icon, remains active in touring and recording. Despite the split, sources report that both parents remain focused on providing a supportive, stable environment for their daughters.
Public and Fan Reaction
The news of their divorce and asset division shocked fans worldwide, as Kidman and Urban had long been seen as a Hollywood power couple. Their journey together — from first meeting in 2005 to nearly two decades of marriage — was widely admired, making the peaceful nature of their breakup notable within celebrity culture.
As 2026 begins, Kidman, Urban, and their family are navigating a new chapter, shaped by mutual respect and cooperation even as their personal lives take separate paths.
