Nicole Kidman seemingly hinted at Keith Urban split weeks before divorce filing

Before the news of her separation from Keith Urban broke, Nicole Kidman shared a heartfelt reflection about life’s unpredictability.

Weeks before the actress officially filed for divorce, Kidman subtly alluded in her Vogue interview to what appeared to be a cryptic preview of the split.

When asked about life in her 50s, she reflected, “How many times do you have to be taught that you think you know where your life is going and then it isn’t going in that direction?”
