Nicole Kidman and Simon Baker go public, as Keith Urban reportedly reacts to the unexpected romance

Nicole Kidman and Simon Baker have seemingly confirmed their long-rumored relationship, stepping out hand-in-hand at the premiere of Scarpetta in New York on March 3, 2026.

Their appearance quickly sparked buzz, marking the first clear public sign that their bond has turned romantic after months of speculation.

The pair didn’t stop there. They were later seen getting cozy at an afterparty, laughing and engaging in deep conversation alongside co-stars, further fueling attention around their chemistry.

Their connection, built over decades of friendship and shared ties in Australian entertainment circles, has now taken center stage in Hollywood headlines.

However, the news has reportedly been difficult for Keith Urban, Kidman’s ex-husband. According to insider reports, Urban was initially in disbelief but was deeply affected after seeing photos of the two together.

The situation is said to feel particularly personal, as Baker has long been considered one of Urban’s close friends. Sources suggest the relationship feels like a “betrayal,” especially given how soon it has gone public following the former couple’s split.

Insiders also claim Urban had previously sensed a growing closeness between Kidman and Baker during filming, making the red carpet debut seem like a confirmation of his concerns. While he has not addressed the situation publicly, the development has reportedly been emotionally challenging.

Despite the unexpected turn, Kidman and Baker’s history runs deep. The two have known each other for years, with Kidman even sharing close ties to Baker’s family, adding another layer of complexity to the relationship.
