Why did Nicole Kidman apply for solo residency in Portugal?
However, insiders insist there is no trouble in paradise. Urban, 57, is reportedly still touring across the United States and was simply unable to appear in person for the mandatory in-country appointment. He is expected to apply separately at a time that fits into his schedule.
The couple already own a home in Lisbon and have been frequent visitors to Portugal. Now, Kidman is reportedly eyeing a second residence within the star-favoured CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club, a luxury enclave south of Lisbon. The high-end community is also home to celebrities like George Clooney and Paris Hilton and is rumoured to be where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle purchased property.
Kidman and Urban, who married in 2006 and have two daughters, are known for their jet-setting lifestyle. Their impressive property portfolio spans multiple continents, including homes in Nashville, New York, Sydney, and a sprawling estate in New South Wales.
The timing of this move comes months after an intruder broke into their $8.4 million Beverly Hills property on Valentine's Day while the couple were away. That incident raised concerns about their privacy and may have accelerated the decision to strengthen ties in Europe.
Despite Keith Urban's name being absent from the residency application, representatives for the couple maintain that their primary residence will remain in Nashville, with the Portuguese residency being more about convenience and lifestyle than any personal rift.

Why did Nicole Kidman apply for solo residency in Portugal?
Nicole Kidman has filed for residency in Portugal, according to local reports, but her husband Keith Urban's name was noticeably absent from the official paperwork. The 58-year-old actress submitted her application to the country's Agency for Integration, Migration and Asylum, sparking speculation about why the country singer wasn't included in the documents.

Overwatch 2 launches new Loverwatch dating sim with more characters but only in select regions
Blizzard has launched a new version of its Loverwatch dating sim in Overwatch 2, allowing players to interact with additional characters, but the event is currently exclusive to Chinese servers. Loverwatch first appeared in 2023, letting players date characters such as Genji and Mercy in a browser-based mini-game, including a secret Cupid Hanzo ending. The spinoff mode received positive reception, with many players requesting its return in the main game. The newly announced Loverwatch update expands the playable roster, adding characters including Lifeweaver, Mauga, Juno, Junker Queen, Cassidy, and Genji, all featured in new artwork and a trailer. Characters appear in themed attire, giving them a different look outside of their standard in-game skins. However, the update is currently only accessible within China. Users on social media noted that to play the dating sim, players must register for the Chinese Overwatch 2 server, providing national ID and phone verification. Content on these accounts does not transfer to international servers, limiting access for players outside China. Overwatch 2 returned to China in February 2025 after a two-year absence due to a licensing issue, offering various in-game events and rewards upon its re-entry. It remains unclear whether this Loverwatch update is exclusive to the Chinese community or if Blizzard plans to release the mode globally in future updates. Players outside China have expressed hope that the expanded Loverwatch event may arrive on international servers for future seasonal events, potentially by Valentine's Day next year.

Taylor Swift sends homemade sourdough bread with handwritten note to Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco
Taylor Swift marked Selena Gomez's 33rd birthday with a personal gift — a basket featuring homemade sourdough bread and a scented candle. The thoughtful gesture was shared by Benny Blanco on Instagram, capturing attention for its warm and playful details. Photo: Instagarm The basket included a sticker that read 'Homemade sourdough' and a handwritten note addressed 'For Selena + Benny,' signed 'Love, Taylor.' Another note added a clever touch: 'It's a loaf story,' a nod to Swift's well-known 2008 hit 'Love Story.' Swift, 35, has been friends with Gomez for years. The two were recently seen together in an Instagram photo Gomez posted on July 20, reflecting on what she called 'the most beautiful year' of her life. The image showed them sitting together in a room filled with balloons, celebrating the milestone. Known for her love of baking, Swift has previously shared treats with those around her. In May, she made Pop-Tarts for Travis Kelce's photo shoot team. Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid also revealed in 2024 that Swift once baked for the team's offensive linemen, making pastries to help her bond with the group. Blanco, Gomez's fiancé since December 2024, is also known for food-themed gestures. Earlier this year, he surprised Gomez with a Valentine's Day gift involving a bathtub filled with queso and a chip trail leading to a message that read 'I heart you.' Swift's bread and message offer a quieter moment of affection and creativity, fitting for a birthday celebration rooted in genuine friendship.
