Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban were forced to briefly separate due to their work commitments and the coronavirus pandemic.

According to New Idea, Kidman returned to Australia months ago to film her upcoming movie with Hugh Grant. Urban initially joined her on the trip, but he had to return to Tennessee due to his work commitments.

Urban flew back to Australia after his work commitments were over. But he was unable to immediately spend time with Kidman and their twins. After all, the musician still had to quarantine for two weeks to make sure that he’s not infected.

A source told the tabloid that the pandemic has also kept Kidman and Urban apart from each other for longer than they ever expected. 

The insider said that Kidman was already starting to stress about her husband being in Nashville for too long. But she also knows that Urban loves it there.

However, Kidman couldn't help but worry about Urban when he's not with her because of all the bad influences and temptations in Nashville.

The tabloid also talked about Kidman’s recent statement about her marriage. In the movie The Undoing, Kidman finds out that her husband is leading a double life.

Kidman said that this would be difficult for her to accept if it happened to her and Urban in real life. But the source said that the Big Little Lies star understands Urban’s struggles with alcohol and addiction.

In fact, she even helped the musician through it shortly after they tied the knot. Four months after they walked down the aisle, Urban, reportedly, checked into a rehab facility to get better.

The source said that this is also one of the reasons why Kidman doesn’t want to be away from her husband for too long. The actress is, allegedly, worried that Urban would relapse.

While speaking with Marie Claire, Kidman revealed that one of the things that Urban does to escape the hustle and bustle of life is by playing with his guitar.

The actress said that she sometimes sees her husband playing with his guitar in his room, and she immediately knows that she needs to give him space.

Kidman and Urban tied the knot in 2006 just one year after they met at the G’Day USA gala in Los Angeles. They tied the knot at the Cardinal Cerretti Chapel at St. Patrick’s Estate in Australia.
