why did nicole and keith break up

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban broke up after 19 years of marriage primarily due to the strain caused by spending too much time apart because of their demanding careers. Keith Urban was mostly on tour while Nicole Kidman was filming, which led to them living separately for a while before the split. According to sources, Keith initiated the separation, citing unhappiness and calling out the lack of intimacy in their relationship. Nicole was reportedly blindsided and heartbroken by the split and had been trying to save the marriage. Despite the breakup, there was still love between them, but their lives had moved in different directions, and they were essentially living separate lives. The couple has two daughters and has agreed on a parenting plan as they proceed with the divorce citing irreconcilable differences.
