Sometimes, moving on looks like taking your kids and disappearing to the edge of the world.
Not long after quietly finalizing her high-profile divorce from Keith Urban, Nicole Kidman whisked her teenage daughters, Sunday and Faith, away on what can only be described as a once-in-a-lifetime journey—to Antarctica. Bundled in red puffer coats and surrounded by snow, ice, and penguins, Nicole appeared calm, grounded, and completely removed from the noise. A sharp contrast to the headlines still swirling back home.
Photos from the southernmost continent showed moments of quiet beauty: kayaking through frozen waters, reading in a cozy ship cabin lined with books, and sharing warm, intimate time with her sister, Antonia. One image captured Nicole and the girls smiling together in matching cold-weather gear—close, unified, and clearly leaning on one another. It was a rare glimpse of Nicole not as a global star, but simply as a mother, exactly where she wanted to be—far from the spotlight.
Her caption read: “Thank you @Silversea for taking me to my 7th continent. Once in a lifetime adventure with family and friends.” On its own, it sounds like a travel brag. But between the lines, it felt more like a reset.
Back in the U.S., Keith Urban’s name has been circulating for very different reasons.
Only weeks after the divorce was finalized, speculation picked up that the country superstar may have already moved on with 26-year-old singer Karley Scott Collins. The two grew close during Urban’s 2025 High and Alive World Tour, where Collins opened for him and later collaborated on the duet “Write One.”
Rumors intensified when reports suggested the pair were living together. Collins quickly shut that down, calling the claims absurd and untrue. Still, fans were quick to notice her social media—peppered with photos alongside Urban, heartfelt thank-yous, and posts praising his generosity. She’s credited him with giving her the call that led to her Grand Ole Opry debut, and on his birthday, she shared how grateful she felt to call him a friend.
Urban, meanwhile, hasn’t exactly rushed to clear the air. In a recent podcast appearance, he spoke vaguely about life after divorce, saying he’s in a different phase now and that his songwriting has shifted toward something more philosophical. Whatever that means, it certainly sounds like someone turning the page.
Nicole and Keith were married for nearly twenty years before things quietly unraveled. Nicole filed for divorce in September, and it was finalized in January with little public drama. There was no courtroom spectacle, no spousal support, and no child support. Nicole was granted primary custody of their daughters, spending 306 days a year with them, while Keith will have 59. Holidays are split evenly, and both agreed to keep things amicable for the girls’ sake.
On paper, it was a clean break.
Real life, of course, is rarely that simple.
Nicole’s retreat to Antarctica feels like more than an extravagant vacation—it reads like a woman reclaiming her sense of self. Meanwhile, Keith being linked to a rising artist half his age has only fueled questions about what truly happened in the final stretch of their marriage.
Two careers.
Two continents.
Two very different ways of beginning again.
Nicole traveled to the end of the Earth in search of quiet.
Keith appears to be finding momentum somewhere new.
And caught between both worlds are two teenage daughters, watching their parents figure out what comes after the spotlight fades.
