Nicole Kidman's Reaction to Keith Urban Allegedly Moving in with His Rumored 26-Year-Old Girlfriend

The news comes months after the actress filed for divorce from the country musician, with the paperwork revealing how the couple intends to share parenting responsibilities.

Recent information about former Hollywood power couple, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban, has surfaced, adding yet another turbulent layer to their divorce saga.

Kidman's recent moves may reportedly be a masterclass in quiet revenge concerning how she is choosing to move forward with her life, as Urban allegedly moves on with someone special.

Country Crooner's Alleged Swift Rebound Sparks Chatter

In recent weeks, rumors have taken center stage about Urban's swift rebound, with whispers circulating that the country star has already moved in with his alleged 26-year-old girlfriend, Karley Scott Collins.

A rising talent in the Nashville music scene, Collins has not only toured with Urban but also shared the stage and spotlight alongside him during several high-profile events. The musician then invited Collins to support him on the High and Alive tour, which wrapped shortly after Urban's split from Kidman was made public in September 2025.

Collins Gushes About Urban

Speculation around their relationship intensified after Collins, who is over 30 years Urban's junior, posted a cozy photo of them on Instagram in July 2025. In the image, they posed with their arms around each other and their heads resting together, a moment Collins captioned, "Somebody pinch me. I feel like I'm dreamin'."

Then, in October, she shared a sweet birthday tribute to Urban. However, in her caption, she made the type of connection they share clear, penning, "feel so lucky to call you a friend!"

After announcing that Collins would be Urban's supporting act on the tour, she stated, "It's amazing being on the road with Keith. He's an incredible entertainer, and I respect him so much... and I've learned a lot watching him."

Additionally, the two are set to continue their musical collaborations this year, with the upcoming Lakefront Music Festival in Minnesota, scheduled for Saturday, July 11, 2026.

Daughters Allegedly Side with Kidman

Though neither party has confirmed the relationship, insiders are confident that it's serious. "I hear he [Urban] has someone, which is why the girls are publicly supporting Mom. People think they are even living together. Look, teen girls love their dads, so there's a reason they're making it three against one," a source revealed.

Kidman, for her part, has seemingly chosen a quiet yet emotionally charged way to respond: by turning her focus squarely onto her daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 15.

Kidman's Silent Retaliation... Through Her Daughters

Long known for her fiercely private nature, Kidman has surprised the public by suddenly becoming more visible, specifically, in ways that highlight her bond with her girls.

"Since the split, you are seeing her and the girls all the time, on her social media and in other photos," the same insider noted. "They were with her in Paris and in Sydney. She posted pictures of them all taking part in a 'turkey trot' running race on Thanksgiving which is really unusual, she's generally more private than that [sic]."

Reportedly, in one of her recent posts, the trio was seen standing arm in arm, gazing out at the Sydney Harbour fireworks. She captioned it simply, "Looking forward into 2026 xxx." It didn't go unnoticed; the implied message was loud and clear: Kidman and her daughters are facing the future as a united front.

Observers have also noted a shift in Kidman's energy. Gone is the solemn expression she wore during Paris Fashion Week back in October.

A recent airport sighting in Nashville painted a very different picture, as the actress looked lighthearted, glowing even, her natural strawberry-blonde curls bouncing as she walked beside her daughters. It marked a dramatic change from her somber demeanor just months prior, when she admitted, "I'm hanging in there."

As one columnist put it, "Nicole Kidman appears to be feeling herself a little more than usual lately. Her hair is curly, she's [sic] been beaming. Is this the usual Kidman je ne sais quoi... or is there something else going on?"

Message Behind the Photos

The answer may lie not only in her renewed presence but in her deliberate emphasis on togetherness, especially after her divorce from Urban was finalized on January 6, 2026, exactly 15 weeks after their split was confirmed.

"Each time you see them they are linking arms or holding hands. It looks 'us against the world [sic],'" the source shared. "I feel like with the pictures she is briefing against him, without briefing against him. It feels as if she is really mad at him and [sic] she is using the girls to show that he is in the doghouse."

Two Lives, Two Narratives

Indeed, while Keith Urban seemingly moves forward — possibly with a new woman, a renovated studio on Nashville's iconic Music Row, a heartbreak album in the works, and an upcoming tour — Kidman appears to be rewriting her own story of resilience, with her daughters as her co-authors.

The emotional undercurrents are unmistakable. This isn't just about moving on; it's about showing who's standing tall in the aftermath.

This quiet show of strength — and the clear bond between the mother and her daughters — continues to captivate, especially given how fresh the split still is.

It all comes in the wake of Nicole Kidman filing for divorce in September, marking the end of a nearly two-decade marriage, and setting the stage for what would soon become a carefully mapped-out parenting arrangement for her and Urban's teenage daughters.

Kidman to Keep the Girls – for 306 Days a Year

Court papers outline that Kidman is the primary residential parent, a role she agreed to on September 6, 2025, while Urban signed off on the same plan on August 29.

Under this arrangement, the Oscar-winning actress has custody of her daughters for 306 days of the year, compared to 59 days with their father.

The plan gives Kidman more than five times the time Urban receives. Still, both parents pledged to remain involved in the big-picture decisions. According to the filing, Kidman and Urban jointly make all major choices concerning their daughters' lives.

No Monthly Support, and Strict Rules for Co-Parenting

When it came to money, there were no messy support battles. The documents note that neither pays traditional monthly child support. Instead, they have established a private financial agreement, with Urban reportedly covering his obligations in advance.

Alongside the custody details, both Kidman and Urban have agreed to maintain a respectful co-parenting relationship. The exes will avoid negative remarks about one another and support their daughters' connections to both sides of the family.

They were also required to attend a mandatory parenting seminar within 60 days of the filing, ensuring a smoother transition for the children as the divorce process moved forward.

Living Separate Lives for Months

Kidman and Urban were said to have split long before the paperwork was filed, with multiple sources revealing the two had been living separate lives since early summer.

During that time, Nicole Kidman had been solely managing family life, caring for her daughters while continuing her professional commitments.

Meanwhile, Urban reportedly moved out of their shared home in Nashville, establishing a separate residence not far away, a move that quietly signaled the unraveling of their years-long union.

A One-Sided Ending?

Urban and Kidman's breakup, according to insiders, was far from mutual. While Kidman was allegedly desperate to salvage the relationship, Urban was said to have emotionally checked out.

Sources close to the couple claim the actress made repeated efforts to hold onto the marriage, but Urban's personal struggles created an emotional chasm between them. "He has been making questionable choices for some time now, and this was not the case of them just drifting apart," an insider divulged.

A Whirlwind Beginning Ends in a Whisper

The couple's love story began like a Hollywood fairytale. They met in 2005 at a star-studded gala, sparking a whirlwind romance. The pair then held a lavish wedding in June 2006 at St. Patrick's Estate in Manly, one of Sydney's most iconic beachside venues.

The candlelit ceremony was deeply personal: Kidman's adopted children with ex-husband Tom Cruise were both present, with Isabella Cruise even serving in the bridal party.

From red carpets to raising daughters, their nearly two decades together were idolized by fans, making the unraveling of their marriage all the more heartbreaking.

'Inseparable' Summer Hints the Girls Knew All Along

Since insiders noted that Kidman and Keith Urban had been separated since the start of summer, it suggested their daughters were already aware while spending those months with their mother.

On August 19, 2025, the "Babygirl" actress shared a carousel of photos on Instagram highlighting her summer with her kids.

The collection includes moments from the oldest's birthday celebration, snapshots from family vacations, and a glimpse of their time together at a music festival.

According to those close to the family, the trio spent the entire season tightly knit. "While Keith has been away on tour all summer, Nicole and her daughters have been inseparable, spending time together bonding," one insider explained.

The source added that Kidman had since shifted her focus back to school routines in Nashville and preparing her girls for the then-upcoming year. Kidman captioned her own post, "Summer memories ❤️ Now back to school ✨."

Her daughter also reflected on the season, posting her own photos to Instagram as she adjusted back into student life after a carefree summer. Her post reads, "Schools back so time to reminisce the vacay [sic]."

As the two girls settled into a new school year, they were also stepping into a different chapter of their lives, one where their parents moved forward separately while continuing to share in their upbringing.
