Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban split

[Anonymous]

Well hopefully her daughters will go to college and make something of themselves. Being a nepo model is lazy.

They're set for life, can do whatever they like.

So many here who see “going to college” (or having babies) as some sort of measure against other females.

And yet most of this thread is about what a bad mother she is. DCUM never disappoints.

She didn’t “have to” pay him - it reportedly was an agreement between the two almost 20 years ago, at a time when the chances of Urban collecting big were very small.

And “most” of the thread is not anti NK - the very posts ahead of yours compliment her for an apparent good relationship with the daughters.

Way to totally miss point. It’s insane that a successful woman has to pay this absolute joke of a man money to stay off coke. He is a father. And you’re justifying this. It shouldn’t be Nicole’s responsibility for him to act even like a halfway decent dad.

YYMV but I expect more from men. It’s possible not to settle and end up with a loser ladies!

That's what the experience of rich and famous Hollywood women suggests. Please name one who ended up with an absolute gem of a husband. I can only think of Barbra Streisand and Goldie Hawn for women in their 70s. Younger than that, I'm coming up with nothing.

Not a big star but Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinz Jr. I guess, Kelly Ripa too. I’m not sure how because I cannot stand her.

Good job coming up with two! Seriously.

DP. There are a lot more. I can think of ten more at the top of my head starting with Tom Hanks:Rita Wilson and Courtney Vance/Angela Bassett.

I would add Sandra Bullock… I think Brian was truly a special guy and they would’ve been together a long time. It’s really tragic he died so young of a terminal illness.

I get the PP’s point, it’s hard for successful women for sure. It’s been hard for Nicole too, but I truly think she settled. I think the OOT displays of affection were to compensate for that.

It’s much harder to name 20+ year couples where each of them is fully active and successful in their own right in a demanding public-facing career under constant camera/pap glare.

I honestly don’t know them well enough, I see them in the tabloids and a documentary but are they each active and successful in their public-facing careers? Not in the same way an actor and musician would be at least.

Yes they are, or were. He has plenty of time on his hands these days. However, she had to overlook a sh*t ton of cheating over the years. I couldn't have done it. The good looking successful wealthy men at that level cheat. All of them. The only variable is whether the wife chooses to stay or not.

But there are cheating rumors, so it's not necessarily a good or happy marriage.

Was going to add them. Also MJ Fox and Tracy Pollan.

But it's true, there aren't many. I'm not adding them to say it's typical; I think all these couples are exceptions. Most celebrity marriages don't last. And they usually don't last very long.

And those are cases where one partner is okay being something of a second fiddle, even the men.
