A subtle yet striking social media move from Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman’s daughter Sunday Rose Kidman Urban has sparked fresh speculation about family dynamics in the wake of the couple’s shock split.
The 17-year-old has unfollowed her father on Instagram, a quiet action that hasn’t gone unnoticed by fans closely watching developments following the end of one of Hollywood’s most enduring marriages.
Interestingly, Keith continues to follow his eldest daughter, a detail that has only added to the intrigue surrounding their current relationship.
The move comes months after the former couple confirmed their separation in September, bringing an end to their 19-year marriage, a union long seen as one of the entertainment industry’s most stable.
While the legal side of the split has reportedly been finalised behind closed doors, reports suggest the emotional aftermath is still playing out, particularly within the family.

Fuel was added to the fire when news emerged that the four-time Grammy winner had moved on with rising country artist Karley Scott Collins, 26.
The significant age gap between Keith, 58, and Karley, as well as the timing of the new relationship, has been widely discussed, particularly given that the singer supported him on his 2025 High and Alive World Tour following their 2024 duet Write One.

Sharing a screenshot of the claims on social media, she dismissed them outright, writing: “Y’all, this is absolutely RIDICULOUS and untrue,” alongside a cry-laughing emoji.
Meanwhile Nicole recently opened up about their home life during a live event, HISTORYTalks, in Philadelphia, alongside former Today host Hoda Kotb.
The Babygirl actress revealed that she had a two-minute rule in place for Sunday and Faith that they are made to do every day.

The star has a close bond with her daughters, who she called “extraordinary,” and loves nothing more than watching them grow into their own people. “[My mother] told me, ‘Don’t ever let anyone break your spirit,'” she added, explaining it was something she was now teaching her own children. Nicole also said that she and her daughters are “so close” and that they “talk about everything.”
