Nicole Kidman has reportedly reached an emotional breaking point amid her separation from country music star Keith Urban after 19 years of marriage. Sources close to the Oscar-winning actress say Kidman has been struggling deeply with the impending divorce, admitting “I can’t pretend anymore” as she grapples with the end of a once-loving relationship.
The split, officially confirmed in late September 2025, came as a shock to fans worldwide. The pair had been considered one of Hollywood’s strongest couples, supporting each other’s careers while raising two daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14. However, insiders reveal that their lives slowly drifted apart amid busy schedules and growing differences.
According to sources, Kidman leaned heavily on her family and especially her sisters for emotional support through this difficult period. Despite the appearance of stability, privately, Kidman was deeply hurt by the breakdown of her marriage, and the pain was compounded by Keith Urban’s reluctance to work on reconciliation. Friends and close associates reveal she was desperate to salvage the relationship but ultimately said: “I can’t pretend anymore” about the state of their marriage.
The couple’s struggles reportedly intensified during 2024, notably with Urban showing displeasure over Kidman’s 2024 film “Babygirl,” a drama about sexual frustration and an extramarital affair. Urban’s disapproval of both the film and Kidman’s promotion of it created tension, with him notably absent from the movie’s premieres—a break from his usual supportive role.
