Nicole Kidman filed for divorce from Keith Urban yesterday after 19 years of marriage. Shortly after, their court documents, filed in Davidson County, Tennessee, became public. The filings show that while news of their split just broke, Kidman and Urban privately1 worked out child custody2 and property division this summer.
Kidman and Urban have two daughters, 17-year-old Sunday Rose, who will turn 18 next July, and 14-year-old Faith Margaret, who turns 15 in December. The family will remain based in Nashville, with Kidman and Urban maintaining separate homes.
Kidman cited “irreconcilable3 differences” as her reason for divorce and listed their date of separation as her filing date, September 30.
She signed the divorce papers on September 29—the same day news of their separation broke.
Yes. Kidman included the detailed4 parenting plan in her filing. The former couple finalized5 the agreement weeks ago, with Urban signing on August 29, and Kidman on September 6, both in front of notaries6.
At the start of the document, Kidman and Urban agreed they would “behave with each other and each child so as to provide a loving, stable, consistent, and nurturing7 relationship with each child even though they are divorced. They will not speak badly of each other or the members of the family of the other parent. They will encourage each child to continue to love the other parent and be comfortable in both families.”
Kidman will serve as the primary residential8 parent of their minor9 children, though they remain joint custodians10 of them.
