Nicole Kidman is opening up ‘taking risks’ and the mistakes she has made in a new interview with with Vogue published Wednesday – in the midst of a divorce from longtime husband Keith Urban. 

‘Taking a risk is what I’ve always done,’ she shared. ‘You get back up and you try again and you learn.’

The 58-year-old has been thrust into the spotlight following news of her split from her musician spouse but insisted that online scrutiny does not bother her.

‘Literally walk away from it because it will fell you. It will destroy you,’ Kidman candidly shared.

Kidman did not address the divorce directly during her interview but was instead ‘wry, rueful, unsure of herself’ when asked about how she felt now in her 50s.

‘How many times do you have to be taught that you think you know where your life is going and then it isn’t going in that direction?’ she quizzed, before stressing the importance of ‘ride-or-die friendships.’

She concluded: ‘So much to say and so little time to say it. About death and life and joy and grief and loss and sex and why we’re here and what is truth and is truth even necessary.’

Of course, she also touched on the steamier roles that she’s had throughout her career, explaining that she doesn’t know why she was so often attracted to these kind of characters.

The Hollywood star announced her separation from country star Urban, effectively drawing a line under their once rock-solid 19-year marriage

She told the outlet that in real life, she is in fact quite introverted, but shared: ‘Sex is an important part of our lives and is still, a lot of times, taboo, and it shouldn’t be.’

The Hollywood star announced her separation from country star Urban, effectively drawing a line under their once rock-solid 19-year marriage.

Kidman filed to end the marriage last Tuesday – citing irreconcilable differences – as a source claimed to the Daily Mail that Urban has already moved on with an unnamed female musician.

The well-placed Nashville music business PR source said: ‘The rumor is that he’s with a younger woman in the business.

‘It’s all everyone is talking about. Everyone wants to know who, but so far, that’s a mystery.’

Neither were seeking spousal support: the New Zealand-born Australian singer is worth an estimated $75 million; the Hawaiian-born Australian actress has earned over $250 million.

It then emerged that the pair had signed a parenting agreement over the summer, in which Kidman was granted primary custody of their teenage daughters – 306 days a year compared to a mere 59 days for Urban.

He is entitled to have the girls from 10am on Saturday until 6pm on Sunday, every other weekend. The holidays were also divided up: he gets every Father’s Day; she gets every Mother’s Day and Easter. Thanksgivings and Christmas switch from year to year.

‘Taking a risk is what I’ve always done,’ she told the outlet about her career trajectory thus far.

‘He isn’t going through a midlife crisis,’ another source close Kidman said. ‘He is going through changes in his personal and professional life, and they just happen to be happening all at once

He signed the contract on August 29; she inked the deal a week later, on September 6.

By Wednesday, the strain of being indoors with her thoughts became too much and Kidman went out for a hike with her journalist sister Antonia, 55. The pair were pictured in animated discussion on the streets close to Kidman’s Nashville home. 

Urban on Thursday landed in Hershey, Pennsylvania – notably not wearing his wedding ring. He performed that night for the first time since the split was made public. Baugh sat the concert out.

‘He isn’t going through a midlife crisis,’ another source close Kidman said. ‘He is going through changes in his personal and professional life, and they just happen to be happening all at once.

‘He is just going through a rough patch, and this will eventually pass, and he will make it on the other side.

‘He’s just fallen out of love with Nicole, and the decisions that have had to be made are ones that were and are important to him, as he knows that they aren’t getting back together.’

Now, Kidman has her work to take her mind off things. Current projects include producing the thriller ‘The Silent Wife,’ and developing the film ‘Love, Pain and the Whole Damn Thing.’
