Nicole Kidman and her husband, Keith Urban, are reportedly considering returning to Australia following what has been the actress’s worst year. Following the untimely death of her mother, Janelle, in September, Kidman returned to Sydney for her burial. According to family sources, she may be suffering from ‘burnout’ as a result of work-related travel and emotional stress.
Previously, she described waking up in the middle of the night, gasping and crying. Urban, who is also wanting to take a break from touring, is focused on supporting his wife as they go through this emotional chapter together.
