Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban\u2019s high-profile split<\/a> after 19 years of marriage is making waves \u2014 and swirling rumors suggest the country star may have already moved on with someone new.<\/p>\n

On Sept. 30, the “Babygirl” actress officially filed for divorce from Urban, citing “irreconcilable differences” and ongoing “marital difficulties” in court documents obtained by Fox News Digital. Sources close to the couple said the breakup was far from sudden. They had reportedly been living apart since early summer, with Urban quietly moving into a separate residence.<\/p>\n

Over the years, Kidman has been close to several high-profile Hollywood stars whose own relationships have played out publicly.<\/p>\n

From Sandra Bullock facing heartbreak when her then-husband Jesse James admitted to infidelity, to Reese Witherspoon moving on with a summer romance after her divorce, here’s a look at Kidman\u2019s Hollywood inner circle and their high-profile romances that have been in the spotlight.<\/p>\n

Sandra Bullock<\/p>\n

Sandra Bullock<\/a> and Nicole Kidman first bonded in 1998 while filming “Practical Magic.” The pair, who once described their connection as “like sisters,”<\/a> are set to reprise their roles as witch siblings Gillian and Sally Owens in the highly-anticipated sequel.<\/p>\n

In 2010, Bullock\u2019s personal life took a difficult turn. Shortly after her Oscar win for “The Blind Side,” her then-husband Jesse James was involved in a highly public cheating scandal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Several women came forward alleging affairs, and James admitted to infidelity, later entering rehab for what he called “sex addiction.” The scandal cast a shadow over Bullock\u2019s career milestone. The “Miss Congeniality” star filed for divorce that same year, finalizing it in June 2010.<\/p>\n
