NICOLE Kidman has been reportedly blindsided by her split from her husband Keith Urban.

The Oscar-winning actress, 58, is said to be shocked after the country singer, who also turns 58 next month, ended their 19-year marriage.

The couple, who share daughters Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14, have spent increasing time apart due to their hectic schedules.

"She was blindsided," a source said. "But we shall see how things go during the holiday season and his upcoming birthday. They have some work to do." Keith has also recently bought his own home in Nashville, Tennessee, where the family are based, sources claim.

Nicole has been spending a lot of time in the UK while filming the Practical Magic sequel to her hit 1998 film with Sandra Bullock.
