Hollywood star Nicole Kidman and country music singer Keith Urban have officially ended their marriage after nearly two decades together. The couple, who tied the knot in 2006, have finalised their divorce and are now focusing on a structured plan to co-parent their two teenage daughters.
Divorce Finalised and Custody Details
As per reports from USA Today, the legal dissolution of their marriage was completed on January 6. The separation brings to a close a union that lasted for 19 years. The central focus of the divorce agreement is the well-being of their children.
The couple are parents to 17-year-old Sunday Rose and 15-year-old Faith Margaret. They have agreed to a detailed custody arrangement. According to the plan, the two daughters will spend the majority of the year, specifically 306 days, with their mother, Nicole Kidman. They will then spend every other weekend with their father, Keith Urban.
Joint Decisions and Holiday Plans
Despite the separation, Kidman and Urban have committed to working together for their children. The report states that both parents will be jointly responsible for making major decisions concerning their daughters' lives while they are still minors. This collaborative approach is set to continue at least until Sunday Rose turns 18 on July 7 this year.
Furthermore, the former couple has proactively agreed to create annual plans outlining how their daughters will spend major holidays and vacations. This forward-thinking strategy aims to provide stability and clear expectations for the family throughout the year.
Nicole Kidman's Motherhood Journey
Nicole Kidman's path to motherhood has been multifaceted and deeply personal, resonating with many. Long before her life with Keith Urban, she became a mother through adoption during her previous marriage to Tom Cruise. She welcomed Isabella and Connor into her family while also navigating public struggles with fertility.
Her journey expanded when she married Keith Urban. The couple welcomed their first daughter, Sunday Rose, naturally. Their second daughter, Faith Margaret, was born via surrogacy. Despite her global fame and demanding career, Kidman has often spoken about striving for normalcy in her children's lives, from doing school runs to simply being a present and worrying parent.
The end of this chapter with Keith Urban marks a significant shift, but the carefully crafted co-parenting plan underscores their shared priority: the care and upbringing of their two teenage girls.
