But sources close to the couple say their split had been "a long time coming," with tensions rising behind closed doors long before the official announcement.

"Nicole's really been through it over the last few years," said a close friend of the actress. "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."

The Australian power couple married in 2006 and were long seen as one of Hollywood's most devoted pairings.

But friends now say they'd been living separate lives for months. Urban, who has battled addiction in the past, was reportedly staying in his own home in Nashville before the split.

Rumors have swirled he had moved on with a younger woman – his 25-year-old guitarist, Maggie Baugh – after he appeared to change lyrics in a song once written for Kidman to include her name during a recent live performance.

A source close to the family said: "Nicole isn't shocked that Keith's moved on, but that doesn't mean it doesn't sting. She's not in any rush to start dating again – right now, it's all about her girls and getting her confidence back. Still, she's not about to sit around feeling sorry for herself.

There were rumors Keith Urban moved on with his guitarist.

Urban, meanwhile, is rumored to be negotiating the financial terms of the divorce. The pair's prenuptial agreement reportedly includes a clause linked to his past struggles with substance abuse, under which he could receive up to $11 million after maintaining sobriety throughout their marriage.

Pals say Kidman has accepted that "money is the least of her worries" and is instead focused on her emotional recovery.

"It's been chaotic and painful at points," a source close to the actress said. "But Nicole's reached a turning point – she's finished putting on a brave face for the cameras. She's reclaiming her life, step by step, through every appearance and every smile. This glow-up isn't about Keith anymore – it's about her. She's ready to move forward and truly shine on her own terms."
