Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban enter settlement agreement in divorce

by · Mail Online

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have officially finalized their divorce and have entered a settlement agreement, just three months after the actress moved to end the couple’s 19-year marriage.

Kidman, 58, cited irreconcilable differences in her September 30 divorce petition.

Court documents obtained by the Daily Mail, which were filed on Tuesday, reveal the couple have agreed to waive all rights to child support and spousal support, with each parent responsible for their own legal fees and expenses. 

A hearing was scheduled for this morning, though Nicole waived her right to appear in court, having been spotted flying back from Australia just yesterday. 

The divorce decree - which the actress noted that details were hashed out on September 6, before filing the petition - ensures that all property, from household furniture and appliances to vehicles, bank accounts, investments, and personal items, is divided to the mutual satisfaction of both parties, with each keeping what is already in their possession.

Under the parenting plan, Kidman will spend 306 days a year with the children, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith, 14, while Urban, 58, will have 59 days - 'every other weekend' - giving her the lion's share of custody.

Despite both parents having reported monthly incomes 'in excess of $100,000,' the court has ordered zero dollars in child support, as agreed by both parties.

The final decree also confirms that all alimony and spousal support claims are permanently waived, and any remaining court costs will be split equally between the former couple.

Keith Urban's guitarist Maggie Baugh releases shock new song - fuelling romance rumours

Keith has forked out for the couple's daughter Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret's private school tuition and, according to the publication, needs to make a living in any way he can.

'It's a lonely existence for Keith right now - he's exhausted, isolated and looking at a future he never imagined,' the source added.

'He's also lost his best friend, Nicole, who was also his greatest supporter in life. He's wondering if he's made a huge mistake.'

The reports come amid speculation linking Urban to his 25-year-old guitarist, Maggie Baugh. 

At the time of Kidman’s divorce filing, insiders said her camp believed Urban had already moved on with a 'younger woman in the music industry'.

Rumors intensified when an unearthed concert video surfaced showing Urban performing The Fighter at Las Vegas’s Mandalay Bay on April 1.

The guitarist, more than three decades his junior, appeared to share a close rapport with the country star, although neither she nor Urban have publicly commented on the alleged romance 

During the performance, he pointed to Baugh while singing the lyrics, 'I was born to love you,' while she played alongside him on stage. 

The guitarist, more than three decades his junior, appeared to share a close rapport with the country star, although neither she nor Urban have publicly commented on the alleged romance. 

Fans also noted that Urban had reportedly altered the lyrics of the song, which was originally written about Kidman, during live performances. 

He seemed to replace references to his ex with nods to Baugh, adding further fuel to speculation about his personal life. 

Kidman and Urban's breakup shocked fans earlier this year - and the Oscar-winning actress had reportedly been dreading the public's response for months prior. 

The actress and musician's separation was confirmed by the Daily Mail on September 29, and Nicole filed for divorce on September 30, citing irreconcilable differences.

Their marriage began to fall apart at the beginning of summer 2025.

The split was reportedly a long-term development, stemming from months of quiet separation and diverging paths due to work commitments, according to Daily Mail sources. 

Before her marriage to Urban, Kidman was married to Tom Cruise from 1990 to 2001.

During their decade together, the couple adopted two children: Isabella Jane, born in 1992, and Connor Anthony, born in 1995. 

Their marriage ended in divorce after 11 years, with both Kidman and Cruise continuing to co-parent their children. 

Kidman was linked to a handful of other high-profile figures in Hollywood as well, including musician Lenny Kravitz and actor Billy Crudup. 

She was also rumored to have had brief connections with Michael Hutchence and media heir Lachlan Murdoch, though these were never confirmed. 

Despite these early relationships, Kidman’s most publicly significant unions remain her marriages to Cruise and Urban.

Before his marriage to Kidman, Urban was linked to a few women publicly, though none were as high-profile as his relationship with Kidman.
