They clearly had a pre-nup, so needed to work out custody. The fact that he has such a minor custody piece makes me suspicious, and wondering if maybe his substance abuse issues haven't resurfaced. Seems strange he would agree to that when to date he's been the parent who's spent far more time at home.



I agree it's weird. Teenage girls can be very tough. Maybe he's had a tough time with them lately, they wanted more time with their mom, and he agreed to that. Still think it's weird though, especially when he has clearly been the more present parent for a while.

I think she would've had him get help if that was the case. I assume she's plans on taking more projects local to Nashville. The other day she and Reese actually said that's what they wanted to do

I forgot Reese has the TN connection too. Both has a lot of clout, could work out well. Nicole only has 3 years before she has an empty nest. It's good she'll have this time with the girls.

It sounds more she holding on and gave him one final chance before filing

Wow - what kind of dad agrees to 55 days a year?

Keith, if you or your people are reading this, please consider a new hair cut. Your old one served you well for a time, but that time has come and gone.

This article doesn't say he cheated.


Not confirmed but per TMZ: "We also reported Keith and Nicole's inner circle believe he has moved on with another woman."

Common wisdom is that women divorce when they're "done," men divorce for another woman.


This is a sexist trope, not wisdom

That's what happens when you're on set back to back for years. I don't say that to be mean either. Nicole has every right to prefer acting but it came at the cost of her marriage. You can only be so supportive of a partner before choosing your own needs. He's gross for cheating and making her file.

Egads, his hair.


His hair has been terrible for years. Maybe if he's having a late mid life crisis he'll get a haircut.

Mid life crisis like Caitlyn Jenner!
He'll get more frosting on his hair. Already looks like an old woman.

If they focus on their careers, they are criticized for not spending enough time at home with their kids.

If they focus on raising their family, they automatically lose out on the best professional opportunities.

Men are not subject to the same criticism, and gaily go about their careers while their wives raise the kids and mommy-track or stay home.

I don't think any of us should criticize Nicole for wanting to be the most famous actress she can be. Yes there is a family cost. Men do that all the time.

I stay home to raise my kids, but I will never criticize a woman for prioritizing her career.



I think the point is that someone needs to prioritize the children. As someone who has birthed children I cannot imagine being away from them that much and I know from family members that both parents prioritizing themselves is never good for kids.


Which brings up a good question who was taking care of the kids back in Nashville when both were out the country on tour/filming?



Keith only tours every 2-3 years. He's the primary parent, not Nicole.



I would assume that too, based on their respective schedules. But the custody agreement has Nicole as the primary:

TMZ: "The parenting plan says the kids will spend 306 days with Nicole and 59 days with Keith. They agreed that all major decisions involving their kids, including education and health care, will be made jointly."
