It’s been a decade of endless love for Australian sweethearts Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman, which in Hollywood years is considered a lifetime.
In a candid new radio interview, the country star revealed his secret to keeping the spark alive.
Speaking to 2day FM radio hosts Rove and Sam, the Fighter hitmaker confessed that a strong friendship comes first.
“We just love being together, more than anything,” he said, adding, “we’re just like best friends.”
While the star admits that each individual couple shares their own recipe for success, he believes that his and Nicole’s true passion for “doing everything together” has helped them outlive other couples such as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, who famously split earlier this month.
Reiterating that it really is that simple for them, the 48-year-old quips, “That’s it, we’re the priority and everything else comes after that.”
Meanwhile in a new interview with Red magazine, Nicole has reflected on her past and present relationships.
The pair share two sweet girls together.
The mother-of-four admitted that the early days of her marriage to Keith were hard work but they worked through it.
“It was really up and down for the first three months. We’ve been through a lot for ten years. And we’re stronger than ever. I say that while touching wood, and no way in a boastful way. I just say it with wonder. Absolute wonder… When you’re older, you’ve been through things, you’ve made mistakes,” Nic told the publication.
“I was so young when I got married. I look back now and I’m like, ‘What?’ You look at Taylor Swift, I mean how old is she? She’s 26. I had two kids by the time I was 27 and I’d been married for four years. But that’s what I wanted.”

Nic has opened up on her ill-fated marriage to Tom Cruise.
Reflecting on her first marriage to Tom Cruise, which ended in 2001, Nicole admits she can’t believe she married so young.
“I was so young when I got married. I look back now and I’m like, ‘What?’ You look at Taylor Swift, I mean how old is she? She’s 26. I had two kids by the time I was 27 and I’d been married for four years. But that’s what I wanted,” the Aussie starlet said.
But she found her happily ever after in Keith and despite their hardships, the pair couldn’t be happier to be celebrating ten years together.
Indeed, It’s hard to believe it’s been ten years since Nicole and Keith wed in a moving ceremony on the stunning grounds of St Patrick’s Estate in Sydney’s iconic Manly.
Since then, the power couple have welcomed two beautiful daughters Sunday Rose, eight, and Faith Margaret, six, and their fairy-tale romance only continues to soar.
“It’s not necessarily great for a child to have an intensely emotional mother. And I don’t want to be a helicopter parent so I’m trying to…balance the intensity of the love. It’s really hard,” Nicole mused of motherhood to Red Magazine.
It’s clear these two are still so in love!
While Nicole looks back on their time together as “the best ten years of our lives”, her only regret is that their paths didn’t cross sooner.
“I wish I could have met him much earlier and had way more children with him, but I didn’t. I mean, if I could have had two more children with him that would have been just glorious,” Nicole remarked.
Both Nicole and Keith cite their parents’ successful relationships as a source of inspiration in working hard at theirs.
“We are really so inspired by our parents who both celebrated 50-year wedding anniversaries,” the actress told us earlier in the year.
