Hollywood star Nicole Kidman and her country singer husband Keith Urban have reportedly split after 19 years of marriage.

According to TMZ, the couple have been living apart “since the beginning of summer”. A source told the publication that Keith has “acquired his own residence in Nashville and moved out of their family home”.

Meanwhile, he told Kelly Clarkson in a recent interview that Nicole hears “everything” he does. “Especially if I’m writing an album,” he said.

“What I’ve learned is when I play her something, I’m obviously interested in her reaction, but I’m also really interested in how I feel when I’m playing it for her or anybody else. I’ve learned to trust my reaction much more.”
