It has been revealed how much the husband of a famous film actress stands to lose if he cheats.

On September 29, 2025, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban announced their separation after 19 years of marriage. For their many fans, this creative and collaborative union was considered one of the most enduring in Hollywood.

The news of their breakup was all the more unexpected given that the couple had touchingly celebrated their wedding anniversary in May, and at the Academy of Country Music Awards, they appeared perfectly happy, tenderly holding hands. However, behind this seemingly perfect image lay a complex story of overcoming difficulties and mutual support that formed the foundation of their relationship, Radar Online reports.

Just months after his wedding in 2006, Keith Urban, who had struggled with alcohol and drug addiction for years, entered a three-month rehabilitation program. Nicole Kidman played a crucial role in his recovery, insisting on treatment and providing her husband with comprehensive support. Urban subsequently publicly expressed his gratitude to his wife on numerous occasions, claiming that it was her devotion that helped him overcome his addiction. He even dedicated the ballad "Thank You" to her as a symbol of gratitude for saving him from a potential early death. The musician admitted that with Nicole, he experienced a true "spiritual awakening" and felt reborn.

Of particular interest is a detail related to Keith's addiction, which could now prove financially beneficial to him. According to widespread reports, the couple included a clause in their prenuptial agreement stipulating that in the event of a divorce due to a relapse into drug addiction, the musician would receive no compensation. If the separation occurs for other reasons, Kidman is obligated to pay her ex-husband $600,000 for each year of his sobriety. The total compensation in this case could exceed $10 million. Naturally, Nicole is extremely indignant about this development.

Nicole perceives this arrangement as initially intended to protect Keith, but ultimately, it protects his financial interests. She supported him through his battle with addiction, and now she watches him profit financially from it. This leaves her feeling deeply betrayed, a source familiar with the matter explained.

However, according to other anonymous sources, the famous actress still has a chance to save her savings. While the true reasons for the divorce remain unknown to the general public, various speculations are already circulating in the media. According to one theory, tensions in the relationship arose from professional issues: Kidman immersed herself in work after the death of her mother, which displeased Urban. Other publications have suggested a conflict over Nicole's explicit scenes in her new film, "Good Bad Girl." The most widespread hypothesis, however, is Keith Urban's possible infidelity. According to insiders, the musician allegedly began an affair with a woman from the country music world, significantly younger than Kidman. It was this alleged infidelity, according to rumors, that prompted Nicole, who had initially wanted to save the marriage, to make the final decision to divorce. And it is precisely this infidelity that could prove to be the salvation of Nicole's financial interests.

Both spouses contributed significantly to everything created during their years together. However, proven infidelity could radically alter the terms of previously reached agreements, according to informed sources.

It's worth noting that Kidman and Urban still face the process of dividing their joint property, which is estimated to be worth approximately $325 million. Over the years of their marriage, the couple acquired properties in Beverly Hills, Sydney, Tennessee, and Manhattan.

As a reminder, Nicole and Keith met in 2005 and were immediately attracted to each other. Nicole initially doubted she'd impressed the musician, while he estimated his chances with her as "one in a million." A few months later, Urban found the courage to ask the star out on a date, after which their relationship rapidly blossomed. They married in 2006. In 2008, the couple welcomed a daughter, Sunday Rose, and in 2010, via surrogate, they welcomed a second daughter, Faith Margaret. Their union seemed flawless, but sadly, even this love story came to a dramatic end.
