Keith Urban And Nicole Kidman
Keith Urban is an Australian American singer/songwriter and guitarist. The Grammy Award winner has been married to the well-known actress and producer, Nicole Kidman since 2006. The pair has two daughters together, Sunday Rose Kidman Urban and Faith Margret Kidman Urban.
Urban is Nicole Kidman’s second husband. She was previously married to Tom Cruise for 11 years from 1990 to 2001. The ex-couple adopted two children, Isabella Jane Cruise and Connor Cruise.
Unfortunately, she does not have a relationship with the children as they chose to live with their father. There is a discussion that the religion Cruise is a part of, Scientology is a big part of their split, and the lack of connection with the children.
