Keith Urban Avoids Questions About Nicole Kidman Before Their Divorce Announcement

In the weeks leading up to the public confirmation of their separation, Keith Urban often sidestepped questions about his marriage to Nicole Kidman during interviews, drawing attention from fans and observers.

One such instance occurred on September 2, just weeks before Kidman filed for divorce. During a candid conversation on Australia’s Gold 101.7 radio show, Urban appeared visibly uncomfortable when asked about their love story, especially the event that brought them together.

The show’s host, Amanda Keller, referenced their first meeting on a Los Angeles radio show and inquired whether their paths would have crossed under different circumstances. Urban responded tersely, shrugging off questions about fate, stating only that he had “no idea,” and quickly changing the subject with, “Anyway, moving on.”

The clip of this exchange was shared on social media, with the caption noting that Urban previously enjoyed discussing Kidman and wished both of them well.

Urban’s discomfort with questions surrounding Kidman was evident in other recent interviews. In July, during an interview on Ryan Seacrest’s show, he awkwardly laughed when asked about his wife’s busy schedule, replying only that it’s “a job” and that “life is in session,” remaining silent on more personal topics.

After almost two decades of marriage, sources confirmed that the couple separated after 19 years and two children, with Kidman filing for divorce citing “irreconcilable differences.” She included a parenting plan for their daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret, in the official documents.

Rumors suggest Urban may have already moved on, with insiders indicating he is reportedly involved with another woman — a claim Nicole Kidman reportedly accepts but remains surprised by. Meanwhile, Kidman appears to be taking the separation in stride, recently spotted hiking and chatting with her sister in Nashville.
