A Marriage Comes to a Legal End
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have officially finalized their divorce, ending a marriage that lasted nearly 20 years. Court records confirm the settlement was approved by a judge in early January 2026, following Kidman’s filing for divorce in late 2025. The agreement brings legal closure to one of the entertainment industry’s longest running high profile relationships, while outlining clear terms for finances, property, and parenting.
Financial Terms and Asset Division
The settlement reflects a clean financial break between the two. Both Kidman and Urban agreed to waive any claims to spousal support and child support, and each will cover their own legal fees. The documents state that each party will retain ownership of their individual assets, including bank accounts, investments, vehicles, and personal property. Any jointly held assets are to be divided by private agreement, avoiding extended court involvement or public financial disputes.
Custody and Parenting Plan
Child custody was a central component of the agreement. Kidman and Urban share two teenage daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret. Under the parenting plan, Kidman has primary residential custody, with the children living with her for the majority of the year. Urban has scheduled parenting time that includes regular weekend visitation and additional days annually. Both parents maintain joint authority over major decisions involving their daughters’ education, healthcare, and overall well being.
Co Parenting Expectations
The settlement places strong emphasis on cooperation and stability. Both parents are required to communicate respectfully with one another and to foster a supportive environment for their children. The agreement explicitly calls for consistency, emotional support, and a commitment to shielding the children from conflict as the family transitions into its new structure.
Privacy and Next Steps
Neither Kidman nor Urban has issued a public statement following the approval of the settlement, consistent with their long standing approach to keeping family matters private. With the divorce now finalized, the legal process is complete, allowing both to move forward independently while continuing to share parenting responsibilities. The settlement signals a deliberate effort to resolve matters efficiently, minimize public conflict, and prioritize their children above all else.
