Leaning on a Friend? Jennifer Lopez 'Reached Out' to Keith Urban After His Shocking Split From Nicole Kidman: Source

Keith Urban found a shoulder to cry on in Jennifer Lopez as he navigates his split from Nicole Kidman.

“J.Lo reached out to Keith as soon as she found out he and Nicole had split up, she wanted to offer her support and check in,” a source told a news outlet.

Lopez, 56, and Urban, 58, have been friends for over a decade, notably joining American Idol in 2020 as judges for the competition show’s 19th season.

According to the source, countless pals reached out to Lopez after her split from Ben Affleck in 2024, so she wanted to provide the same comfort to Urban.

“A lot of people did that for her when she and Ben broke up and it meant everything to her,” the insider revealed. “It’s been more than a year now, and she’s still hurting over her divorce so she’s very sensitive to anyone going through the end of a marriage.”

News of the “The Fighter” singer and the Babygirl actress’ split hit headlines earlier this year after multiple outlets reported that Urban moved out of his and Kidman’s shared Nashville, Tenn., home in "the beginning of the summer.”

"Their lives were moving in different directions, and once he quietly set up his own place, it felt like the writing was on the wall," a source told an outlet of the split on September 29.

The Big Little Lies alum, 58, filed for divorce one day later and requested to be the "primary residential parent" of their daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14.

Kidman shared a rare update on the breakup months later, admitting she was “hanging in there” when asked about the divorce on November 24. According to a recent report, the movie star is orchestrating a "major revenge glow-up" and is "done feeling sad about the split."

"Nicole's really been through it over the last few years," said a close friend of the Oscar winner. "She did everything she could to make the marriage work, but Keith was already gone emotionally. Now she's turning all that hurt into motivation – she wants to look and feel incredible. It's her way of taking back her power and reminding everyone, including Keith, that she's come out of this stronger than ever."

As for Urban, it’s unclear whether his connection with the “Jenny From the Block” singer is turning romantic, as he’s reportedly being “extra secretive” about his dating life following the divorce, which has yet to be finalized.

“He also won’t meet anyone out in public. They have to be willing to come over,” a separate source revealed, adding they have to “sign a very detailed non-disclosure agreement.”
