They added, “She didn’t want this. She’s been fighting to save her marriage.”
TMZ first reported the news. To multiple sources, the couple told the outlet that they were away “from the beginning of the summer,” revealing that Kidman is working on repairing the relationship.
Kidman and Urban married in June 2006 and share two daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret. Their love story began 20 years ago in 2005.
In January 2019, Kidman spoke to people about the moment in June 2005 when he realized that Urban was her great love. “It was my (38th) birthday and he was standing outside with Gardenia at 5am from before me in New York,” she recalled. “When I went, ‘This is the guy I hope to get married.’ At that point, he believed it was the love of my life. ”
Urban praised Kidman for helping him begin his drinking journey.
In September 2020, he spoke about Kidman on the Armchair Expert Podcast. “She’s just something. She’s the person I’ve been looking for for a lifetime and not only did everything change, but I had to change it to me if I was going that way.”
He said, “It was like the ultimate folk of the Lord’s moments in my life, and it was literally something you’ve got this now or you’re never going to get it right. This is your one-shot. It felt so obvious.”
In March 2024, Kidman told Elle that she valued her family life. “I live a very complete life with my loved one. I am raising a daughter. I am a wife. I am a sister. I am a sister. I am an aunt.
