A flicker of hope has ignited among fans of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, despite their recent divorce filing. After nearly two decades together, the couple announced their separation in September, citing irreconcilable differences. Yet, whispers persist that the split may not be final, fueled by a subtle detail in the digital world.
Intriguing observations from dedicated followers reveal that Nicole and Keith continue to follow each other on Instagram. This seemingly small act carries weight, considering Nicole’s curated following of just 372 accounts, and Keith’s even more selective list of 115. Both maintain the other as one of the chosen few.
However, alongside this potential sign of connection, stark realities of their separation are unfolding. Court documents detailing their divorce reveal a carefully constructed child custody arrangement, solidifying the practicalities of their evolving family dynamic. The couple shares two daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14.
Nicole will have primary custody of their daughters for 306 days each year. Keith’s scheduled time with Sunday and Faith is limited to every other weekend, from 10 am on Saturdays to 6 pm on Sundays. The girls will reside with their mother for the vast majority of the time.
Special occasions have also been divided. Nicole will have the girls for Mother’s Day and Easter, while Keith will enjoy Father’s Day and Thanksgiving with them. Crucially, both parents have committed to joint decision-making regarding their children’s education and well-being. Financial arrangements are already settled, with Keith reportedly having prepaid all child support obligations.
Beyond logistics, the divorce agreement includes stipulations designed to protect their daughters’ emotional health. The former couple has agreed to refrain from speaking negatively about each other or other family members. They also pledge to actively encourage their daughters to maintain a loving relationship with both parents and feel comfortable within both families.
Their story began in January 2005, at the G’Day USA gala in Los Angeles, a celebration of Australian talent in Hollywood. A whirlwind romance followed, culminating in an engagement in May 2006. Just a month later, they exchanged vows in a lavish ceremony at St. Patrick’s Estate in Sydney, surrounded by a constellation of celebrity friends, including Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, and Naomi Watts.
In the midst of this personal upheaval, Nicole has immersed herself in her work. She recently graced the runway at the annual Vogue World event in Hollywood, delivering a captivating performance. Dressed in a striking Chanel gown, she flawlessly embodied the glamour of Rita Hayworth, performing a rendition of “Don’t Put the Blame on Mame” from the classic film *Gilda*.
