Divorce often sparks a move, a fresh start, a new chapter—but not for Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban.
Both stars, 58, are rooted firmly in Nashville, Tennessee, each maintaining their own lives in the city they’ve called home for years.
Life Together and the Big House in Northumberland
The couple moved to Nashville when Kidman married Urban in 2006.
Two years later, they purchased an impressive home in the gated Northumberland community, where they raised their two daughters, Sunday, 17, and Faith, 14.
Even after announcing their separation in September, Kidman has remained in the house, while Urban has moved into temporary accommodations just nearby.
Crossing Paths in Everyday Life
Despite the split, the former couple continues to run into each other around town.
Locals have spotted them shopping separately at the same Whole Foods in Franklin, a Nashville suburb.
They even share the same hairdresser, Ashley Wahler, who is behind Keith’s signature highlights and Nicole’s strawberry blonde locks.
It’s unclear whether they still attend the same local church, but their shared routines show how intertwined their lives remain.
Custody and Co-Parenting
Kidman has primary custody of their daughters, with 306 days of the year, while Urban has 59, including certain holidays like Thanksgiving.
His time with the girls is limited to weekends every other week, from Saturday morning to Sunday evening.
Over the past few weeks, Urban has been busy performing—appearing in Palm Beach, Florida, for a charity event at Mar-A-Lago, then in Fort Worth, Texas, and most recently at the Country Music Awards in Nashville.
The Divorce Filing and Financial Agreement
Kidman filed for divorce on September 30, citing irreconcilable differences.
According to the custody agreement signed in August, Urban pre-paid his financial obligations for the children.
With legal and financial matters largely settled, the focus now is on maintaining stability for their family.
Friendships and Nashville Life
Kidman isn’t planning to move. Friends confirm she is deeply committed to life in Nashville, enjoying a social circle that includes actress Reese Witherspoon.
Meanwhile, she prepares for a busy 2026, filming the new series Scarpetta, based on Patricia Cornwell’s novels, which also stars Jamie Lee Curtis as Scarpetta’s sister Dorothy.
Signs of Change and Subtle Clues
Fans began noticing subtle changes earlier this year.
Urban, who used to publicly refer to Kidman affectionately as “babygirl,” stopped mentioning her on tour over the summer.
By June, the couple were last seen together, and soon after, the split was confirmed.
Insiders told People that Kidman felt shocked and betrayed, though she has been fighting to save the marriage.
Rumours and Media Speculation
TMZ reported rumours suggesting Urban may have been involved with another woman, which sources say Kidman does not dispute.
Media speculation also linked him briefly to singers Maggie Baugh and Karley Scott Collins, though Collins has publicly denied any romantic involvement, describing Urban purely as a mentor and collaborator on tour.
Urban’s Busy Post-Split Life
Since the separation, Urban has remained professionally active.
He appeared on CBS’s TV talent show The Road and has been fronting Old El Paso’s “Castin’ the Cowboy” campaign, helping select a new singing cowboy mascot.
The winner, a performer named Elroy, was crowned in July 2025 and will feature in future advertisements.
A New Chapter While Staying Close
Even in divorce, Kidman and Urban’s Nashville lives remain intertwined.
From shared hair appointments to co-parenting routines and neighborhood sightings, the couple demonstrates that splitting doesn’t always mean uprooting—and sometimes, the heart of the home stays in the same place.
