In a remarkably transparent new interview, Academy Award-winning actress Nicole Kidman has broken her silence about the persistent divorce rumours that have swirled around her marriage to country music star Keith Urban.
The Hollywood power couple, who tied the knot in 2006, have frequently found themselves at the centre of separation speculation throughout their 18-year union. Kidman has now directly confronted these claims, offering rare insight into the realities of maintaining a high-profile relationship under constant public scrutiny.
The Truth Behind the Headlines
'We're in a very, very sacred, sacred relationship,' Kidman revealed during the intimate conversation. 'There's a deep love but also an enormous amount of gratitude for the partnership.'
The 'Big Little Lies' star didn't shy away from acknowledging the challenges that come with balancing two demanding careers while nurturing a family life. She spoke openly about the conscious effort required to protect their private world from external pressures and media narratives.
A Bond Forged Through Challenges
Kidman and Urban's relationship has weathered numerous storms, including Urban's well-documented journey through rehabilitation early in their marriage. The couple have consistently emerged stronger from these trials, with Kidman emphasising their unwavering commitment to working through difficulties together.
'We've been through many things together,' she shared, hinting at the depth of their shared experiences without divulging private details. 'That's the beauty of a long-term relationship - you build this history that nobody else has.'
Why the Rumours Persist
The interview explores the curious phenomenon of why certain celebrity couples become regular targets for separation speculation. Kidman suggested that the very nature of their private approach to their relationship might inadvertently fuel curiosity and conjecture.
Unlike many Hollywood pairs who share their lives extensively on social media, Kidman and Urban have maintained a notably discreet presence, choosing to keep their most precious moments away from the public eye.
The actress concluded with a powerful statement about the strength of their bond: 'We're always working on us. That's the commitment we made, and it's one we honour every single day.'
