When asked if she was doing OK following her and Keith’s separation, Nicole told Variety in March 2026 that she was focused on raising her daughters and maintaining their family.
“I am (all right), because I’m always going to be moving toward what’s good,” she explained. “What I’m grateful for is my family and keeping them as is and moving forward. That’s that. Everything else I don’t discuss out of respect. I’m staying in a place of, “We are a family,” and that’s what we’ll continue to be.”
