Nicole Kidman reportedly files residency application for Portugal with no mention of husband Keith Urban

Sky News AU24-07-2025
Aussie movie star Nicole Kidman has lodged an application for residency in Portugal, multiple news outlets in the European country have claimed.
Portuguese media outlet SIC Notícias broke the story on Tuesday and claimed the Oscar-winning actress has submitted residency paperwork to the country's Agency for Integration, Migration and Asylum (AIMA).
According to SIC Notícias, Kidman is reportedly house hunting around the Costa Terra Golf & Ocean Club in Comporta.
The luxury development is popular with global A-listers including George Clooney and Paris Hilton and is also a base for royal family member Princess Eugenie.
The sunny European nation is popular with celebrities and jetsetters because of its ideal climate, favourable tax benefits and relative privacy.
Meanwhile, Portuguese TV network TVI claims they have confirmed with Lisbon City Council that Kidman and Keith Urban already own an apartment in the Portuguese capital.
The revelation comes after Kidman was recently spotted arriving at the Tires airfield in Cascais, a wealthy seaside enclave just outside of Lisbon.
The Dead Calm star and her country star husband own an impressive globe-spanning property portfolio spanning Sydney, Los Angeles and Nashville.
In Sydney, the couple own six combined apartments overlooking Sydney Harbour in Milson's Point.
The Kidman-Urban clan also own a breathtaking 45-acre rural property called Bunya Hill in the Southern Highlands, complete with cattle and alpacas.
Earlier this year, Kidman told the Hollywood Reporter she planned to spend 2025 taking a break after shooting multiple film and TV projects simultaneously.
"I was much more out there last year; this year I have Holland, I have Nine Perfect Strangers, and then I'm off for the rest of year. So, oh well!' she said.
In the past year, Kidman has starred in films A Family Affair, Babygirl, Spellbound and Holland and TV projects like The Perfect Couple, Lioness and Nine Perfect Strangers.
The movie star's pledge to take time off appeared to be short-lived and Kidman is currently back on set with Sandra Bullock to film a sequel of the cult classic Practical Magic.

‘Has to be a lie': Rocker G Flip shocks American fans after revealing classic Aussie school tradition

G Flip has shocked their American fans after sharing the "bizarre" school tradition from Australia of pen licenses that has divided their TikTok followers. The Melbourne-born singer and drummer, who goes by they/them pronouns, has moved to the United States after marrying reality star Chrishell Stause of Selling Sunset fame. Obtaining a pen licence is a rite of passage for many Aussie primary school students around year three or four to officially transition from writing with a pencil to a pen. 'I'm an Australian living in America and today I found out that Americans don't get their pen licence when they're a kid,' G Flip said in a TikTok video. 'So, in Australia, when you're eight or nine, you do a test to deem if you are ready to upgrade from a pencil to a pen. 'You've got to make sure it's all legible and your letters look great and then your teacher will grade you ... and you will then get a certificate that says you can now use your pen, you've got your pen licence. 'Apparently, Americans, y'all don't get a pen licence and you're out here using pencils until you're in your teens. That's a lot of sharpening!' The video has amassed over 1.5 million views in a few days, with comments divided between nostalgic Aussies and baffled Americans. 'As an American growing up I just used pens anytime we don't need permission to use them wth lol,' one stateside fan wrote. 'A pen license? Girl, we were signing yearbooks in gel ink with no adult supervision. This ain't the DMV,' another American wrote. 'This has to be a lie,' a third American wrote. Meanwhile, many nostalgic Aussies recalled their memories of earning their pen licence. 'As a primary school teacher, I can't tell you the joy it gives me to give a student their pen licence,' one Aussie fan wrote. 'Anyone else left-handed and have their pen licence taken off them when they smudged the ink across the page?' another reflected. 'No pen licences is crazy. How do you know you are safe and ready to use a pen without one?' a third wrote.

Rebel Wilson faces new legal threat

The lead actor in Rebel Wilson's film 'The Deb' has accused the Aussie star of damaging her reputation in a series of social media posts, as Ms Wilson faces separate allegations she tried to undermine the film's release. Lawyers for actor Charlotte MacInnes on Thursday filed a concerns notice to Rebel Wilson over a series of social media posts made by the major Aussie star. Court documents, seen by NewsWire, allege Ms Wilson made a series of posts to Instagram which implied Ms MacInnes had changed her story about one of the film's producers, Amanda Ghost, allegedly making unwanted sexual advances towards her. According to the court documents, the posts also allegedly suggested that she got the lead role in one Ms Ghost's productions in return, was given a record label deal, and was paid off by Ms Ghost to lie about a complaint made to Ms Wilson about the alleged sexual harassment. The documents claim the imputations are 'false and seriously defamatory', harming Ms MacInnes' reputation at a critical point in her career. 'The Publications carried seriously defamatory imputations damaging to Ms MacInnes' personal and professional reputation,' the documents state. 'This was her first lead role in a film and you cruelled her professional reputation before she could even enjoy the benefit of the success of the film as the lead actress.' Lawyers from law firm Giles George argue Ms Wilson's alleged statements carry particular weight within the film industry, given her success. Ms MacInnes is seeking damages and a permanent order to stop Ms Wilson from publishing any similar statements in the future. A series of screenshots of the alleged defamatory statements were attached in the lengthy concerns notice and seen by NewsWire. The fresh threat comes as Ms Wilson faces unrelated allegations she tried to undermine the release of her film 'The Deb'. Ms Wilson and the company AI film Production Limited agreed to produce the Aussie film 'The Deb' in 2023. Court documents, also seen by NewsWire, claim Ms Wilson made allegations that producers on the film had engaged in inappropriate conduct towards the film's lead actor, embezzled money, and tried to block the film's release.

'In fact, it was Wilson who was undermining the attempts of the producers and AI Film to secure distribution deals for the Film by continuing to make public and false allegations, and by deliberately undermining the negotiations with potential distributors,' the document claims. Proposals to distribute the film were subsequently withdrawn after Ms Wilson allegedly threatened to get an injunction to prevent its release. Lawyers argue Ms Wilson's alleged actions have damaged the company's reputations and goodwill, undermined the value of the film's rights and led to a loss of distribution revenues. Rebel Wilson's lawyers on Friday sought more time before the matter is next called up in court.

Lawyers on behalf of AI Film are pushing for damages, statutory compensation, an apology, and corrective advertising. Further, they're seeking an order to prevent the actor from making any statements similar to those alleged in the documents. The matter was heard briefly in the NSW Supreme Court on Friday, where lawyer Sue Chrysanthou argued against a bid by Ms Wilson's lawyers for a delay in the case. 'Your Honour we oppose that, the defendants were served on the day of filing, the day after…(Ms Wilson) went online to her social media and complained about the proceedings and repeated the conduct alleged,' Ms Chrysanthou told the court. Justice Elisabeth Peden ultimately granted a slightly shorter adjournment than Ms Wilson's lawyers were seeking, with the matter to return to court in September.
