The agreement reportedly centers on a parenting plan and sets aside all child and spousal support rights for their children, 17-year-old Sunday Rose and 15-year-old Faith Margaret. Under the agreement, the girls will live 306 days of the year at their famous mother’s home while spending every other weekend with their father.

The parents are required to “behave with each other and each child so as to provide a loving, stable, consistent and nurturing relationship with the child even though they are divorced.”

“They will not speak badly of each other or the members of the family of the other parent. They will encourage each child to continue to love the other parent and be comfortable in both families,” the agreement added.

Additionally, the former power couple agreed to “a mutual desire and intent to maintain confidentiality with respect to their financial and business affairs.”

Nicole Kidman reflects on resilience and healing

In October last year, the 'Babygirl' star Nicole Kidman opened up about her life, saying she has “seen a lot.”

“I’ve experienced a lot, and I’ve survived a lot. I want to pass on some of that knowledge and that wisdom and whatever I’ve learned. I’m not big on telling people what to do, but I’m more than happy to share,” she added.

Kidman also noted that “no matter how painful, or how difficult, or how devastating something is, there is a way through.”

She stated, “There’s something to knowing that no matter how painful, or how difficult, or how devastating something is, there is a way through. You’re going to feel like you’re broken, but if you move gently and slowly, and it can take an enormous amount of time, it does pass.”
