Nicole Kidman Finding Support from Well-Known Older Gentleman During Keith Urban Divorce, According to Insider

Nicole Kidman has been seeking comfort from an unexpected source as she navigates her divorce from musician Keith Urban. The actress has been in close contact with fellow Australian actor Russell Crowe during this challenging period.

The two have shared a friendship spanning decades, with Crowe previously describing Kidman as one of my favorite people in the universe.

Nicole and Keith publicly announced their separation last September after 19 years of marriage. They share two daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14. While Kidman has received acclaim for her performances in 2024s Babygirl and the legal drama Discretion, Keith has expressed feeling lonely and miserable while on tour.

An industry insider noted that Crowe, knows exactly how heartbreaking it is when a long marriage ends. Hes been through that pain himself, so when Nicole reached out, he was ready to help. People see him as tough, but he shows a gentler side with her.

Another source added, Russell has been checking in with Nicole almost daily, ensuring she doesnt withdraw. They recently met for coffee, and he was clearly trying to lift her spirits. Hes not naturally warm, but he is fiercely loyal to those he cares about.

Although the duo is rarely seen together publicly, they co-starred as a married couple in 2018s Boy Erased. Additionally, Kidman served as vice president of the Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts while Crowe was president in 2020. Crowe has been in a committed relationship with Britney Theriot for the past five years, and sources emphasize that his friendship with Kidman is purely platonic.
