The divorce of Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman is now final, after court documents were filed on Tuesday. 

In documents obtained by ABC Audio, the two stars agreed to waive child and spousal support and to cover their own legal fees. They outlined a parenting plan for their daughters, 17-year-old Sunday Rose Kidman-Urban and 15-year-old Faith Margaret Kidman-Urban. 

Keith and Nicole are 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,” according to the documents. 

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

The girls’ primary residence will be with Nicole, who will have custody 306 days of the year, while Keith will have them the other 59, which is every other weekend. 

The resolution comes just three months after Nicole filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.

(SPOILER ALERT) Sadie Sink has shared her take on what happens to Eleven in the series finale of Stranger Things.

The actress, who played Max Mayfield in the popular Netflix sci-fi series, was asked while guesting on The Tonight Show if she believes that Eleven (Millie Bobby Brown) dies in the finale.

Eleven’s fate was purposely left ambiguous. She sacrifices herself as the Upside Down is blown up, but at the end of the episode, Mike (Finn Wolfhard) theorizes that she may still be alive.

“What do I think? I think she’s dead. I don’t know,” Sink said.

This caused the audience to groan in response. Sink then added, “Is that a hot take or something?”

Sink also said she isn’t sure about Mike’s theory that Eleven is still alive and exploring the world.

“I think Mike’s story is just one last story and then they say goodbye to childhood, but that’s just one final tale,” she said. “And that’s it. I think it’s just a coping thing.”

The actress said she believes that Eleven dying is a “stronger” ending than the idea of her somehow still being alive. Host Jimmy Fallon agreed with her.

“I feel like it put an end to it. But I guess it’s up to your interpretation,” Fallon said.

Sink responded, saying, “That’s my interpretation. I’m sorry.”

Michael B. Jordan directs, produces and stars in Amazon MGM Studios’ upcoming reimagining of The Thomas Crown Affair, a film he recently revealed was one of his favorite movies growing up. Citing both the 1968 original and the 1999 remake in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Michael shared that his take on the story will include some surprises for audiences.

“It’s a big movie. It’s international. It’s sexy. It’s a lot of fun—full of twists and turns,” he said. “There are going to be some things audiences won’t be expecting, which I think will be a nice treat.”

The remake reimagines the classic romantic heist about a billionaire who orchestrates elaborate crimes, leading to a cat-and-mouse game with a sharp investigator. The film also stars Adria Arjona, Kenneth Branagh, Aubrey Plaza, Pilou Asbæk, Paapa Essiedu, Lily Gladstone, Danai Gurira and Ruth Negga.

The Thomas Crown Affair is slated to premiere in 2027. Ahead of its release, Michael shared some personal goals he’d like to accomplish in 2026.

“I’m always trying to set goals to improve myself,” he told THR. “This year, I want to lead with my best foot forward, continue to be kind, and show empathy to people. Empathy is something we’ve lost a lot of, and I think the world needs more of it right now. That’s what I’m championing this year.”

If you’re a fan of Mary J. Blige‘s Lifetime movies, here’s some good news. The singer has three more original films in the works as part of her extended deal with the network. Like her previous films, the first is named after one of her songs, this time Be Happy from her 1994 album, My Life.

According to Deadline, Be Happy tells the story of 50-year-old Val, a wife and stay-at-home mom who hopes to rekindle the spark in her marriage after she and her husband, Ross, become empty nesters. Instead, she is forced to confront the realization that “her marriage and the woman she once was may be slipping away.” 

When Val travels to New Orleans to support her pregnant daughter, Kayla, this leads to more than she expected. It “awakens long-buried dreams and passions” and introduces her to photographer Peter Mosley, who helps her rediscover her sense of worth. As she begins to see herself in a new light, she’s faced with the question: “Is it ever too late to choose yourself and the love you truly deserve?”

Tisha Campbell stars as Val, with Russell Hornsby portraying her husband, Ross. Mekhi Phifer plays Peter, and Zing Ashford appears as Val’s daughter Kayla. Making her directorial debut is actress Gabourey Sidibe, best known for her roles in Precious and Give Me Back My Daughter.

Be Happy will be Mary’s latest Lifetime film, following Real Love, Strength of a Woman and Family Affair. It premieres on Feb. 7.

Diane Keaton‘s daughter celebrated the late actress on Monday, on what would have been Keaton’s 80th birthday, sharing a photo of a tattoo she got in her mother’s honor.

Keaton’s daughter, Dexter White, who goes by Dexie, posted a pair of photos on Instagram. She wrote in the caption, “I miss you, mom,” with broken heart and dove emoji.

The first photo shows the mother-daughter duo embracing at a scenic overlook, Keaton wearing her signature wide-brim bowler hat and a long puffer coat, and Dexie wearing an oversized sweater and sneakers.

The second photo shows a pair of forearm tattoos, one that reads “La di da” with a heart — a nod to an iconic line from her mom’s famous movie, Annie Hall — and one that reads “Weird old world.”

White tagged her brother, Duke Keaton, in the second photo, just beneath the “Weird old world” tattoo.

In the caption, White thanked Los Angeles-based tattoo artist Daniel Winter, known professionally as Winter Stone, “for my forever reminder of my wonderful mom.”

Diane Keaton, who never married, became a mother at the age of 50 when she adopted White. She later adopted Duke Keaton in 2001.

The legendary Oscar-winning actress died at age 79 on Oct. 11, 2025.

Diane Keaton rose to fame in the 1970s with her role as Kay Adams in The Godfather films. In 1978, she won the Academy Award for best actress for her performance in Annie Hall.

She is also known for her roles in Play It Again, Sam, Baby Boom, Something’s Gotta Give, The First Wives Club and the Book Club franchise.
