After 19 years of marriage, country star Keith Urban and actress Nicole Kidman officially finalized their divorce on January 6, 2026. The split was handled privately, with both parties waiving spousal support and reaching a mutual agreement on their assets and property.
Public attention quickly turned to Urban’s personal life. Reports linked him to rising country singer Karley Scott Collins, with some tabloids even suggesting the two were living together. These rumors grew as fans observed Kidman spending more public time with their two daughters.
Karley Scott Collins addressed the speculation directly on social media. She shared a screenshot of the claims and denied them, clarifying that her relationship with Urban is a professional friendship. She noted that she was simply grateful for the opportunity to open for him on his recent tour.
Another wave of speculation followed a live performance where Urban altered the lyrics of his song, “The Fighter.” He swapped a romantic lyric for the name of his guitar player, Maggie Baugh. While this caused a stir among fans, Baugh’s father dismissed the rumors, stating their relationship is strictly professional.
Despite the media noise, the divorce settlement outlines a clear co-parenting plan. Urban will have custody for 59 days a year, while Kidman will have primary custody. Both artists appear focused on their careers as they move forward independently.
