Nicole Kidman sparks romance rumors after divorce

Nicole Kidman has returned to celebrity headlines in recent days after reports linked her to businessman Paul Salem, chairman of MGM Resorts, in what has become the first major romance speculation surrounding the actress since her divorce from Keith Urban. Still, the available reporting does not support claims of a confirmed relationship and keeps the story in the realm of rumor rather than fact.
TMZ reported in February that Salem was interested in pursuing Kidman romantically, but said the two were not dating and had only met in group settings through mutual friends. People later reported that Kidman is not rushing into dating and is currently focused on family and work following the formal end of her marriage earlier this year.
Kidman’s divorce from Keith Urban was finalized on January 6, 2026, after the couple’s 2025 split. According to People, the settlement waived child and spousal support, while both parents retained joint responsibility over major decisions involving their daughters. In a March interview covered by People, Kidman also signaled that she was focused on moving forward in 2026, without announcing any new relationship.
For that reason, the more accurate framing is that Kidman has sparked romance rumors after her divorce, rather than entered a confirmed new relationship. At this stage, there is no public confirmation from either Kidman or Salem that they are together.
