Earlier this month, we reported that the Oscar-winning star Nicole Kidman and her country music star husband Keith Urban had separated after 19 years of marriage. At the time, insiders were claiming that Kidman was desperately “fighting to save her marriage.” They also alleged that she’d felt “blindsided” by Urban wanting to separate.
Hours later, however, Kidman, 58, officially filed for divorce from Urban, 57. This came amidst rumors that Urban had already moved on with a “new girlfriend.”
Now, Kidman and Urban’s divorce have taken a shocking turn.
Surprising Twist In Kidman And Urban’s Divorce
An insider close to Kidman is claiming that despite everything that’s happened, the actress would take Urban back. That is, if he hasn’t actually moved on with another woman.
“She would get back with him in a heartbeat,” the insider told Daily Mail.
“There was a lot of love between the two and they might not divorce, but there is a world that they both live where neither of them are in it,” the source continued. “Keith and Nicole have been together for decades and there is a world [in] which they can reconcile, but the way their pairing is now, it is not a couple.”
Kidman And Urban’s History
Urban and Kidman met back in 2005, and they married the next year in 2006. They went on to welcome two daughters together: Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14. Sadly, Kidman filed for divorce on September 30, citing “irreconcilable differences” at the time.
This was Urban’s first and only marriage. Meanwhile, Kidman was married to her fellow A-list Hollywood star Tom Cruise from 1990 until 2001. Their divorce was extremely bitter, which may explain why she was particularly so reluctant to split from Urban. Indeed, insiders have claimed that Kidman fought to save her marriage with everything she has.
“She didn’t want this,” a source told People Magazine after Kidman filed. “She has been fighting to save the marriage.”
The insider who is close to Kidman has confirmed that she was indeed caught off guard by the split. According to this source, Kidman believed right up until the news of the breakup broke that she and Urban were working out their marital issues.
Kidman Feels ‘Resentment’ Towards Urban
Last week, other insiders spoke out to claim that while Kidman is staying positive, she also feels “so much resentment” towards Urban.
“In so many respects Nicole is doing brilliantly,” a source close to Kidman told Star Magazine. “She’s been a total pro throughout this, and her number one goal is to stay strong and not crumble for the sake of her daughters, as well as herself.”
The insider went on to say that this is “easier said than done.”
“Keith was the love of her life, and it’s not that simple to just turn those feelings off like a tap,” the source continued. “She’s been on autopilot, cramming her schedule like crazy and sticking tight to friends who are longing to set her up for some fun once she gives the word.”
These insiders warned that while Kidman may seem like she’s holding it all together, “the dam has to burst at some point soon.”
“She has so much resentment and heartache that’s inevitably going to come to the surface,” the source concluded. “And when that happens it’s not going to be pretty.”
Divorce is never easy, particularly after so many years together. Please join us in saying a prayer for both Kidman and Urban as they navigate this new chapter of their lives!
