Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban separate after almost 20 years

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have separated after nearly 20 years of marriage according to BBC sources, confirming TMZ's initial report that the couple has been living apart since summer. The Oscar-winning actress and four-time Grammy-winning country singer, who married in June 2006 and have two teenage daughters, have supported each other through professional achievements and personal challenges, including Urban's rehabilitation for addiction shortly after their wedding. Despite the separation, which sources claim Kidman does not want, the couple was seen together publicly as recently as June at a FIFA match and in May at the Academy of Country Music Awards where they appeared affectionate.
