Separation not mutual

Sources claim the separation was not mutual. According to TMZ, Kidman has been trying to save the relationship, while Urban has already taken steps to move on.

“Keith has acquired his own residence in Nashville and has moved out of their family home,” one source told the outlet.

Kidman is said to be focusing on their two children and “holding the family together through this difficult time since Keith has been gone,” the report continues.

A source also confirmed the news to PEOPLE, saying: “Nicole’s sister [Antonia] has been a rock and the entire Kidman family has come together to support one another.”

"She didn’t want this," the source added. “She has been fighting to save the marriage.”

Whether the separation will lead to divorce remains unclear. As of now, neither Kidman nor Urban has publicly commented on the situation.
