Key Details About the Divorce and Parenting Plan
Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman, who have been married since 2006, are officially going through a divorce. The couple, known for their successful careers in music and film, has two daughters: Faith Margaret, 14, and Sunday Rose, 17. According to recent court documents, they have already finalized their parenting plan, which outlines how they will share custody of their children.
The documents show that both parents signed the agreement in late August and early September. Keith Urban’s signature was dated August 29, while Nicole Kidman’s was on September 6. This indicates that the couple had already made arrangements for their children's care before officially filing for divorce.
Nicole Kidman, 58, filed for divorce from her husband, 57-year-old Keith Urban, on September 30. In her filing, she requested to become the primary residential parent of their two daughters. The agreement between the couple states that Kidman will have the girls for 306 days a year, while Urban will have them for 59 days. This arrangement was reportedly agreed upon by both parties prior to the official filing.
Background on the Couple's Relationship
Kidman and Urban have lived in Nashville since 2007, and the divorce filing was submitted there. The couple cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their split. They first met at a gala in Los Angeles in 2005 and married the following year. In addition to their two daughters, Kidman is also the mother of Bella and Connor, whom she shares with her ex-husband, Tom Cruise.
The couple's separation appears to have been a long time coming. A source told BroNews that Kidman did not want the marriage to end and had been "fighting to save" it. The actress's sister, Antonia, and the entire Kidman family have reportedly provided strong support during this difficult time.
Recent Developments and Public Perception
The estranged couple had been spending time apart over the summer. Kidman was filming Practical Magic 2 in London, while Urban was on his High and Alive World Tour. A second source revealed that the separation had not been a secret, stating that the couple had been living separately for some time.
A close associate of Keith Urban told BroNews that the split felt inevitable. While the couple may have tried to work things out, the decision to separate seems to have been influenced by factors that were not publicly disclosed.
Impact on Their Children
With the parenting plan in place, the focus remains on ensuring that both daughters, Faith Margaret and Sunday Rose, continue to receive the love and support they need. The agreement between the parents aims to provide stability for the children, even as their parents navigate the challenges of their divorce.
As the legal process moves forward, fans and followers of the couple will likely be watching closely to see how the situation unfolds. For now, the priority remains on the well-being of the children and the continued support from both parents.
