Nicole Kidman 'encouraged' to consider THIS 'young charming guy' after Keith Urban split

Following Nicole Kidman's split from Keith Urban, insiders have revealed that the actress is being encouraged to consider "flirty young charming" men.

Sources told Closer Magazine that Nicole was "blindsided" when Keith walked out of their 19-year-marriage. "She never in a million years thought she’d be single at this age," they noted.

While the actress is said to be "still grieving" and would be ready to welcome Keith back if he wanted, the reality has "forced her to switch gears, whether she’s ready or not."

Inner circle of Nicole is telling her to now to follow in on the trend of "powerful women quietly taking younger lovers" and that it's about that "same thrill and excitement."

Furthermore, the actress' friends also have suggested an "ideal candidate" for the actress: none other than the High School Musical star Zac Efron. Referring to their latest collaboration in A Family Affair, the source revealed, "When they worked together, Nicole didn’t see Zac that way, as she was so in love with Keith."

"But now that she’s single, she’s looking at everything, and everyone, in a very different light, and the fact is, Zac is a gorgeous man," the source said.

Noting, "What’s even better about him is that he’s so incredibly sweet. When Nicole was working with Zac, she was always suggesting people she could set him up with."

"But now her friends are saying she should forget matchmaking and test the waters with him herself!" the source said.

Nicole Kidman filed for divorce from Keith Urban in September this year. Meanwhile, she starred with Zac Efron in A Family Affair in 2024.
