Nicole Kidman Reveals How She Protects Mental Health
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban quietly separated in the summer of 2025 after 19 years of marriage. Their separation was officially announced on September 29 and she officially filed for divorce the very next day. The former couple shares two children, Sunday, 18, and Faith, 15.
The actress has had a busy career since the end of her marriage. She turned heads on the red carpet while promotingPractical Magic 2 earlier this year. Nicole Kidman opened up toVogue Australia about how she keeps her mental health stable amid the heartbreak and her work.
“I can be late with texting, I don’t check my emails all the time; I’m just not that person. But I’m able to be emotionally present in my life and have a pretty stable mental health because of it,” the Babygirl star said.
Nicole Kidman admitted that she doomscrolls just like the rest of us. However, “I know that I need to go be in nature, I know how to realign myself when things get really overwhelming, and the phone, for me, is not the answer.”
Keith Urban Breaks Silence On ‘Challenging’ Split
Nicole Kidman isn’t the only one with a busy career. Keith Urban released his 13th studio album earlier this year, and it was very different from what fans are used to hearing from him. The singer, known for his country hits, released an album of Soft Rock and Yacht Rock covers. TheFlow State tracklist included Seals and Crofts hit “Summer Breeze,” Bread’s “Guitar Man” featuring John Mayer, and “Baby Come Back” by Player.
The album came out in June. He gave a candid interview to theAssociated Press around that time detailing how “challenging” it was to make the album amid personal drama. He called the tracklist an “unexpected group of songs and a very unexpected record to find me when it found me, because it was very much a 180 of what was going on at the time.”
“It was a challenging record to make at the same time, for something that kind of sounds so effortless,” he added without directly referencing his split from Nicole Kidman or rumored estrangement from their daughters. The former couple appears to be on good terms despite the divorce. He wished her a happy birthday earlier this year and she honored him with a Father’s Day post.
