Rumors of Keith Urban’s Infidelity Resurface Amid News of Separation from Nicole Kidman
Early Allegations That Shook Hollywood
Long before Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban married, whispers of infidelity circulated. Reports date back to the early 2000s, around the time the couple began building their 19-year marriage. These claims briefly threatened what many considered one of Hollywood’s strongest romances.
Amanda Wyatt’s Controversial Claims
In 2006, 23-year-old part-time model Amanda Wyatt, 16 years Urban’s junior, went public, alleging she had an affair with him that continued up to his wedding to Kidman.
“I feel sorry for Nicole,” Wyatt stated. “Keith cheated on her repeatedly with me, right up to just before they got married. He’s done it once and will probably do it again.”
Wyatt described Urban as conflicted—charming yet troubled—recalling intimate nights, lavish gestures, and emotional connection, but also evenings clouded by alcohol and drug use.
How It Allegedly Began
Wyatt said their relationship started in 2004 at a Nashville bar, evolving quickly into something deeper. She claimed to have lived in Urban’s rented home and even met his parents during a holiday visit. Despite the closeness, she admitted she knew she wasn’t his priority and was blindsided when she discovered his relationship with Kidman via a tabloid.
Struggles Behind the Scenes
Urban’s personal challenges became public months after the affair allegations. Four months into his marriage, he voluntarily entered rehab for alcohol abuse, expressing remorse and emphasizing vigilance in recovery. Kidman’s unwavering support during this time earned her widespread praise.
A Marriage Tested
Nearly two decades later, the couple faces another turning point. TMZ reports that Kidman and Urban have been living apart since early summer 2025. Kidman is caring for their two children, aged 14 and 17, while Urban has moved into his Nashville residence. Sources say the separation is not mutual; Kidman has reportedly been trying to save the marriage, though a divorce decision has not been finalized.
An Enchanting Beginning
Urban recalls meeting Kidman at the 2005 G’Day LA event, describing her as having an “otherworldly aura.” Despite his initial nerves, their connection was instant.
Their bond was tested months after their wedding when Urban entered rehab, yet Kidman remained steadfast. “If you want to see what love in action looks like, Nic pushed through every negative voice and chose love,” Urban said at a tribute honoring her.
Love Immortalized in Song
In 2024, Kidman revealed her favorite song is Once in a Lifetime, written by Urban shortly after their wedding. Their daughters, born in 2008 and 2010, further strengthened the family bond.
Unique Communication and Lasting Connection
Even in the smartphone era, the couple preferred calling over texting. “We call. And that’s 12 years of marriage,” Kidman said in 2018, emphasizing presence, clarity, and honesty in their relationship.
Looking Ahead
From early allegations to enduring devotion, their story reflects love, resilience, and challenges. While their separation marks a difficult chapter, it also underscores nearly two decades of shared life, milestones, and lessons about loyalty and emotional truth.
