A close source told People that the actress's sister, "has been a rock," with the Kidman family rallying around the actress in recent weeks. The publication confirmed on September 29 that Kidman, 57, and Urban, 56, had separated after 19 years of marriage.
TMZ first reported the news, noting that the couple had been living apart during the summer. "She didn't want this," the source said of Kidman. "She has been fighting to save the marriage."

The pair exchanged vows in 2006 and share two daughters, Sunday, 17, and Faith, 14. Kidman also has two adult children, Bella, 32, and Connor, 30, from her previous marriage to Tom Cruise.
The separation comes just a few months after their 19th wedding anniversary in June, an occasion Kidman celebrated on Instagram with a black and white photo of the two together.
Over the summer, Kidman was filming the sequel to “Practical Magic,” which wrapped in September. Urban spent the same period touring across North America and Australia. His tour continues through October, with additional dates scheduled for 2026.
