After nearly two decades of marriage and a separation announced in September 2025, Kidman decided to focus all her energy on two fundamental pillars: her family and her career.

According to reports from People magazine, the family dynamic returned to normal in an atmosphere of absolute serenity.

The wisdom of “moving through” the pain

Kidman, known for her resilience, has shared a mature perspective on endings in recent interviews. “There’s something about knowing that, however painful or devastating something is, there’s a way to get through it,” the actress reflected in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar. For her, the healing process doesn’t allow for shortcuts; it’s about feeling the pain in order to eventually let it go. Professionally, 2026 is shaping up to be a very busy year. The actress is not only focused on the post-production of the highly anticipated sequel to Practical Magic with Sandra Bullock, but she also has several other projects on her schedule. Despite the complexity of the legal battle for custody, which ultimately granted the actress the majority of time with her daughters, the final agreement is notable for a pact of mutual respect: neither will speak negatively about the other.
