Hollywood star Nicole Kidman is addressing her high-profile divorce from country music singer Keith Urban, describing a period of profound vulnerability and the sensation of freefall following the end of their 19-year marriage, according to an interview with British Vogue.
Navigating the Aftermath of a 19-Year Marriage
According to British Vogue, the 59-year-old actor admitted there was a point where she felt deeply afraid and vulnerable as she faced life after the split. The official end to the marriage came in January, following the filing of court documents citing irreconcilable differences, as reported by TMZ and cited by TV 2. Kidman has navigated two of Hollywood’s most scrutinized separations, having previously divorced actor Tom Cruise in 2001 after an 11-year marriage that began when she was 22.
Finding Solace in Family and Poetry
To cope with the upheaval, Kidman turned to poetry and her daughters—Sunday Rose, 18, and Faith, 15—according to British Vogue. In a separate interview with Variety, cited by TV 2 and Headtopics, Kidman emphasized her focus on the future and her family unit. “I’m okay, because I’m always going to move toward what is good. What I’m grateful for is my family, and that I keep them as they are and move forward. That’s it,” Kidman told Variety, adding that she avoids discussing other aspects out of respect and maintains that “we are a family, and that’s what we’re going to continue to be.”
European Travels and Upcoming Projects
Amid the personal changes, Kidman spent the summer traveling across Europe with her daughters, visiting destinations such as London, Ibiza, Paris, and Portofino. Professionally, the actor is preparing for the release of Practical Magic 2 alongside Sandra Bullock, arriving 28 years after the original film.
