Nicole Kidman’s divorce from Keith Urban has officially concluded with terms that heavily favor the Oscar-winning actress when it comes to their two teenage daughters.
According to a new report from Daily Mail, the custody arrangement is remarkably lopsided.
Kidman will have custody of Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith, 14, for 306 days each year.
Urban will spend just 59 days with his daughters—essentially every other weekend.
Financial Terms Reveal Clean Break
Both parties waived requests for child support and alimony indefinitely, signaling a mutual desire to end their 19-year marriage without ongoing financial entanglements.
The former couple also amicably divided their material possessions. Each spouse agreed to keep what they had individually acquired, avoiding protracted negotiations over assets.
The divorce decree indicates both Kidman and Urban opted out of formal discovery processes typically used to uncover assets and debts during divorce proceedings.
Each party indicates that he or she does not want to proceed with formal discovery, including completing interrogatories and requests for production of documents, or discovery depositions, that are designed to discover assets and debts.
This language suggests both parties were transparent about their finances and preferred speed over scrutiny.
Speculation About Urban’s New Relationships
The settlement announcement comes after months of public speculation about Urban’s romantic life post-separation.
Rumors first emerged when Urban’s 25-year-old tour guitarist Maggie Baugh posted a video that caught fans’ attention. In the clip, Urban appeared to flirt with Baugh by changing song lyrics to include her name.
The video surfaced just days after news broke of the couple’s divorce at the end of September, fueling intense speculation.
Neither Urban nor Baugh commented on the rumors directly. Meanwhile, Baugh capitalized on the increased attention to promote her music career.
Second Set of Rumors Emerged
As speculation about Baugh faded, fresh rumors linked Urban to another young musician from his tour circuit.
Country singer Karley Scott Collins, also 25, became the subject of gossip connecting her romantically to the 58-year-old musician.
Urban has remained completely silent on all rumors regarding his post-divorce romantic interests, neither confirming nor denying any relationships.
What the Custody Split Means
The custody arrangement—306 days for Kidman versus 59 for Urban—represents one of the more dramatic imbalances in high-profile celebrity divorces.
For context, standard joint custody arrangements typically split time closer to 50/50, or at minimum provide the non-primary parent with alternating weeks or significant vacation time.
Urban’s 59 days translate to roughly 16% of the year with his daughters, compared to Kidman’s 84%.
Several factors could explain this arrangement:
- Urban’s touring schedule: Musicians often spend months on the road, making consistent custody difficult
- Daughters’ preferences: At 17 and 14, Sunday Rose and Faith are old enough that courts typically consider their wishes
- Stability concerns: Keeping teenagers in one primary home during school years is often prioritized
- Mutual agreement: Both parties may have determined this arrangement serves everyone’s interests best
Representatives Remain Silent
The Daily Beast reached out to representatives for both Kidman and Urban but has not received comments regarding the settlement terms.
This silence is consistent with how both parties have handled their separation publicly—with minimal statements and maximum privacy.
Throughout their marriage, Kidman and Urban were known for keeping family matters private despite their high-profile careers. That discretion appears to be continuing through their divorce.
Looking Forward After 19 Years
Kidman, 57, and Urban married in 2006 in a ceremony in Sydney, Australia. Their nearly two-decade marriage was long considered one of Hollywood’s most stable unions.
The actress has two adopted children—Isabella, 31, and Connor, 29—from her previous marriage to Tom Cruise. Urban has no other children besides Sunday Rose and Faith.
With the divorce finalized and custody established, both parties can now move forward separately. Kidman continues her acclaimed acting career with multiple projects in development, while Urban remains active in country music and touring.
The arrangement ensures Sunday Rose and Faith maintain stability during crucial teenage years while still maintaining regular contact with their father.
