Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s marriage has entered a period of silence after nearly two decades together. The development centers on reports that the former couple are no longer communicating directly, with all discussions about custody and finances now handled through their lawyers.
Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman are not on talking terms, insiders say
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s marriage has reportedly reached a silent standoff following their divorce filing.
According to #ShuterScoop, the pair are “only speaking through lawyers,” with all communication about custody, finances, and property handled by legal teams. A source close to the couple stated, “It’s icy. They’re not even texting. Everything — custody, property, money — runs through the lawyers.”
The insider report describes the split as unexpectedly severe for one of Hollywood’s longest unions. After nearly twenty years of marriage, friends say the relationship had been deteriorating for some time. “They were always touchy-feely in public, but things have been off for a long time,” a longtime acquaintance explained.
Industry sources cite conflicting professional commitments as a major factor. “They were living separate lives,” a Nashville insider revealed, pointing to Kidman’s film schedule in Europe and Urban’s ongoing global tours. “Love couldn’t survive the logistics.” Another source described the divide as both emotional and operational, noting, “They’re protecting their brands, but it’s brutal behind closed doors.”
While both continue to maintain a polished public image, insiders indicate that the separation has become entirely procedural. “This isn’t a breakup — it’s a corporate dissolution,” one source said, emphasizing that even minor issues are now addressed through representatives rather than direct dialogue.
The development follows earlier reports of separate living arrangements and mounting professional distance between the Oscar-winning actress and the country musician. Friends close to the family describe the situation as “all business,” with neither party publicly commenting on the proceedings or future plans. Both remain focused on their respective careers as the legal process continues.
