NASHVILLE — The curtain has officially closed on one of Hollywood’s most resilient power couples.3 Court documents finalized Tuesday in Nashville have stripped away the privacy surrounding Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s 19-year marriage, revealing the staggering financial and personal costs of their separation.
Despite a public narrative of mutual respect, the legal filings paint a picture of a clinical and decisive decoupling. Both Kidman and Urban, 58, reported monthly incomes exceeding US5$100,000 (AU$148,000), yet the settlement includes a surprising “zero-dollar” child support clause that has raised eyebrows across the industry.
The 306-Day Custody Lockdown
The most striking detail in the decree is the heavily skewed parenting plan. Nicole Kidman has been granted primary residential custody of their daughters, Sunday Rose (17) and Faith Margaret (15), for 306 days of the year.
Keith Urban, meanwhile, has been relegated to just 59 days annually—effectively “every other weekend” from Saturday morning to Sunday evening.8 While sources close to Urban suggest he is “reeling” and “devastated” by the isolation of his new reality, the legal signatures tell a story of a father who has already pre-paid his financial obligations for nannies, private schools, and extracurriculars through the girls’ high school graduations.
Total Financial Liquidation
In a move to avoid a messy public discovery process, the pair bypassed formal interrogatories, agreeing instead to a private division of their vast empire.
- Assets: Shared bank accounts, vehicles, and high-value art were divided “to mutual satisfaction” before the filing.
- Alimony: Both parties officially waived all claims to spousal support, effectively walking away with only what they personally owned.
- The “Nashville Mansion”: Kidman remains in the sprawling $3.4 million estate they purchased in 2008, while Urban has reportedly moved into a separate residence within the city.
A “Cold” Finality
While Kidman spent the New Year radiant on Australian soil—her first holiday without Urban in two decades—insiders claim the country music star is struggling with the financial burden of the split. Performing private shows for high-profile political circles to “pay the bills,” Urban is reportedly facing a lonely future he never anticipated.13 The decree even meticulously divides airline and hotel loyalty points, ensuring that not even a single “frequent flyer mile” remains contested.
