Insiders say that the Oscar-winning actress invests in her appearance and well-being, and is entering a phase when she feels and looks her best.
A source told a news outlet that Nicole’s recent glow-up was not unnoticed by Urban, in particular. “Seeing her out in the world, glowing and looking better than ever has really made it clear that she is not slowing down.”
Kidman, rather than retreating from this new phase, is said to be leaning in with a refined, effortless approach to her look, polished and deliberate, but never excessive.
According to reports, the actress has chosen subtle, “noninvasive” treatments including laser procedures.
The insider continued, “She is known as a big surgery addict but she’s much more conservative than people give credit for.” “Clearly, what she’s been doing recently has worked wonders.” She looks like she’s a million dollars, and she projects so much confidence.”

The source told the National Enquirer that “there’s a sense that she’s going to be back on the market soon.”
They said that Urban may soon be dating someone new, which could be “a tough pill” to swallow given how “magnificent she can be at times like this.”

Kidman also revealed that she is training to be a death doula, a path she finds deeply personal.
She revealed that her decision was inspired by her mother’s death in September 2024, when she was 84 years old.
Kidman, in her reflections on the experience, told The Blast that her mother’s last days revealed a gap that even family could not fully fill.
She and her sister tried to balance careers and large families. But she wished there were “these people” in the world who could sit impartially, and provide comfort and care.
She said that this realization led her to consider becoming a death-doula as part her personal growth.
