"A sticking point in Kidman's divorce negotiations with Urban was custody of their daughters, Sunday, 17, and Faith, 15, the Daily Mail reported. Keith was initially asking for equal time with their daughters, an insider told the UK tabloid. That demand sent Kidman into a spiral, the insider said. After almost 20 years of marriage, she certainly knows how stubborn Keith can be. She was anxious and distressed that he wasn't going to budge."
"Kidman, 58, felt the girls should be with her more and was wary about any arrangement that would have them splitting time between her and her country star ex-husband, those close to the separation talks told the Daily Mail. Fortunately for Kidman, she got her way, according to the settlement agreement announced this week. She will have the girls 306 days a year, while Urban, 58, will get them every other weekend, totaling 59 days."
"The Oscar winner wasn't motivated by spite to demand more time with the girls but because she was afraid of history repeating itself, the Daily Mail reported. This is a reference to Kidman's divorce from Cruise. In 2001, the Top Gun actor abruptly filed for divorce after nearly 10 years of marriage. Kidman and Cruise also had adopted two children together, Isabella and Connor Cruise, now 32 and 30 respectively."
Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban finalized a divorce settlement that grants Kidman primary custody of their daughters, Sunday, 17, and Faith, 15. The agreement gives Kidman 306 days a year with the girls while Urban will have them every other weekend, totaling 59 days. Both remain based in Nashville; Kidman lives in the seven-bedroom mansion they bought in 2008 and Urban moved nearby. Custody talks were tense, with Urban initially seeking equal time, which distressed Kidman. Kidman sought greater time to avoid a repeat of painful outcomes from her 2001 divorce from Tom Cruise, when that marriage ended abruptly.
