Nicole Kidman's Fashion Foray: Healing Through Style Post-Split
Nicole Kidman's Secret to Healing After Split from Keith Urban: Keeping Busy and Focusing on Herself
The shocking news of Nicole Kidman's split from husband Keith Urban sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry, leaving fans wondering how the Oscar-winning actress was coping with the breakup after 19 years of marriage. But according to relationship expert Susie Kim, Kidman's jam-packed schedule is actually a clever way of healing in the wake of her marriage break-up.
In a recent interview with nine.com.au, Kim revealed that keeping busy and reconnecting with loved ones is a healthy coping mechanism for anyone going through a tough time. "It really helps to keep busy and reconnect with or keep engaged with all of the things that you love," she said. For Kidman, this means immersing herself in her passion projects, including modeling for top fashion brands like Chanel and stepping out as their latest brand ambassador.
But what's behind Kidman's sudden interest in keeping busy? Sources close to the actress revealed that she had been dreading the public's response to their split for months. "She's been stressed because she knew the separation would eventually become public and she was dreading it," a source told People. However, now that it's out, Kidman is surprisingly level-headed and calm, with her focus firmly on what's ahead – particularly her two daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith, 14.
The split between Kidman and Urban has been a long time coming, with sources claiming that their marriage began to fall apart at the beginning of summer last year. "Their marriage was already in trouble before they even announced it," said a source close to the couple. "They'd grown apart due to work commitments, and things just started to unravel."
And what about the rumors that Kidman had been seeking counseling for months prior to their split? While neither party has confirmed this, sources say that Urban was indeed trying to make amends, but it may have been too little, too late. "He knew he'd messed up and tried to win her back," said a friend of Urban's. "But ultimately, they just couldn't work things out."
As for Kidman, she's reportedly been keeping busy with modeling gigs, including a recent photoshoot for Vogue and Clé de Peau Beauté, a skincare brand she represents. But it seems that modeling is not the only thing on her agenda – sources close to the actress say she's also been taking time to reconnect with friends and family.
"Get back into your really healthy routines, like exercise and seeing your friends and family," Kim advised Kidman. "And don't be afraid to try new things – you might discover a whole new passion or interest!" It seems that Kidman is taking this advice to heart, and we can't wait to see what's next for the talented actress.
In an interesting twist, it was revealed that Urban had to muster up the courage to ask Kidman out on their first date. "I'd never have thought she'd see anything in a guy like me," he confessed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show back in 2013. "But at some point I plucked up the courage to call those numbers, and she answered."
Fast forward to their marriage ceremony in 2006, where Kidman and Urban tied the knot in a traditional Catholic ceremony at the Cardinal Cerretti Chapel in Sydney, Australia. But it seems that even after all these years, the couple's relationship had run its course.
As the dust settles on this high-profile breakup, one thing is clear: Nicole Kidman is ready to take on whatever comes next – and we can't wait to see what she has in store for us!
