‘Single’ Nicole Kidman lays out strict ‘manifesto' to start dating again

Nicole Kidman is single and ready to mingle!

Following her split from her ex-husband Keith Urban, bachelors looking to date the acting icon will have to wait a while before they see her on Tinder.

According to Woman’s Day, when it comes to choosing her potential partner, Nicole is equipped with a strict dating “manifesto”.

An insider told the publication that Paddington actress will be jumping back into the dating pool with very little patience for “time wasters”.

“She knows what she likes now and she's not afraid to only aim for what she believes she is worth,” they said.

The source also added that Nicole had some stringent requirements for a potential new love interest, including a “no actor” policy.

It was also suggested that the characteristic that Nicole is looking for most in a man is “kindness”.

If the man has children, that would be okay, too, as long as they are close in age to Nicole's daughters Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 15.

“A kind guy who is clean, sober, successful, and won't turn into a broke beta-male cling-on and [she] doesn't mind if he's got kids, but ideally doesn't want them to be any younger than her daughters,” the insider stated.

Regardless of Nicole's dating prerequisites, potential beaus will still have to run the gamut of Nicole's close and protective circle of friends for final approval.

“Nicole's leaving the bulk of the vetting to her circle of friends,” the source said, adding, “She refuses to even have coffee with someone unless they've been personally recommended to her by a friend she implicitly trusts”.

It is pertinent to mention that Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban were married for 19 years before they announced in September 2025 that would be splitting ways and their divorce finalising in January.
