**Nicole Kidman Walks on Eggshells Amid Divorce from Keith Urban, Fears Financial Fallout**

Nicole Kidman is reportedly walking on eggshells around her estranged husband, Keith Urban, desperate to keep the peace as she faces fears that a messy divorce could jeopardize the fortune she’s built over decades in Hollywood, sources tell RadarOnline.com.
The *Moulin Rouge!* actress, 58, filed for divorce from the country music star, 57, earlier this month after 19 years of marriage.
### Fear Over Financial Fallout
Court documents filed in Nashville on Tuesday, September 30, revealed that the couple had quietly signed a parenting plan weeks earlier. The agreement includes a mutual promise not to disparage each other around their daughters, Sunday, 17, and Faith, 14.
The documents confirm Kidman will be the girls’ primary residential parent, with Urban having visitation rights for 59 days a year. Both are required to attend a parenting seminar within 60 days of the filing.
Despite the calm tone of the legal paperwork, insiders suggest tensions remain high behind the scenes. A source close to the couple disclosed, “Nicole is doing everything she can to avoid confrontation. She’s terrified that if this turns ugly, Keith could go after her financially—and that could devastate everything she’s built.”
Another insider added that the Oscar-winning actress, whose estimated net worth exceeds $300 million, has grown increasingly anxious about protecting her assets. “She’s proud of what she’s achieved—from *The Hours* to *Big Little Lies*—and she’s worked for every cent,” the source said. “Even with a prenup in place, she worries he might challenge parts of it. That’s why she’s so desperate to keep things civil.”
### A Carefully Negotiated Parenting Plan
Court filings show both parties have waived any claim to spousal or child support, with Urban having already prepaid “child support obligations.” The agreement also allows each to retain their own assets—a sign, legal experts note, of a strong prenuptial deal.
Still, the suddenness of Kidman’s filing caught those close to her by surprise. While she signed the paperwork on September 6, Urban had signed his over a week earlier, on August 29.
Sources claim Kidman made the decision to proceed “abruptly,” after a summer spent apart. She had been filming *Practical Magic 2* in London, while Urban was touring the US and Australia on his *High and Alive* world tour. The distance and conflicting schedules reportedly deepened the rift between them.
### The End of a Hollywood Love Story
“Nicole never wanted things to end like this,” a friend revealed. “She tried hard to hold the marriage together, but eventually she had to accept that they’d drifted beyond repair.”
Kidman and Urban, who married in Sydney in 2006, were once considered one of Hollywood’s most enduring power couples. They met shortly after Kidman’s high-profile divorce from Tom Cruise, and their whirlwind romance quickly led to marriage.
Together, they built a life split between Nashville and Sydney, often appearing on red carpets hand-in-hand, publicly declaring their love.
### Focus on Family and Graceful Closure
Urban, whose struggles with addiction early in the marriage were well documented, has credited Kidman with helping him through his darkest times. “I owe her everything,” he once said.
Now, friends say Kidman is focusing on protecting her daughters and preserving the amicable tone outlined in their parenting plan. “She’s devastated, but she’s focused on getting through it gracefully,” an insider shared. “Nicole’s only goal now is to keep things calm and protect both her career and her family.”
