Nicole Kidman spotted with mystery man in Italy

Nicole Kidman was pictured enjoying her lavish Italian summer over the weekend, looking relaxed as she chatted with a handsome mystery man outside a H๏τel in Portofino.

Dressed in a delicate white silk cami and skirt, the Moulin Rouge star, 59, soaked up the sun while speaking to the man, believed to be a wealthy Beverly Hills based businessman.

Though the nature of their meeting was unclear, the two appeared friendly and shared a laugh at one point. 

While the Australian beauty kept cool in her breezy ensemble with her strawberry hair left undone, the man wore a navy shirt, matching shorts, and black sunglᴀsses. 

Her latest sighting comes after rumors that Kidman has been dating a ‘high-profile businessman’, seven months after her divorce from country superstar Keith Urban, 58, with whom she shares daughters Sunday, 18, and Faith, 15.

Daily Mail has reached out to Kidman’s representatives for comment.

Kidman has been enjoying a getaway in Portofino, and was pictured on a luxury yacht last week with her family, celebrating her younger sister Antonia’s 55th birthday while taking in the idyllic views of the Italian Riviera.

They were joined by Antonia’s husband Craig Marran and their daughter Sybella Hawley as well as Dr. Rick Abramson, a close family friend.

Just days earlier, she was spotted in London, attending a Wimbledon match and mingling with the likes of Anna Wintour in the Royal Box on Sunday afternoon.

Last month, reports surfaced that Kidman was rumored to be in a secret relationship.

According to online site DeuxMoi, Kidman was enjoying dating a ‘high-profile businessman’ though the pair were still reportedly taking things slow at the time.

‘We’re told the relationship has been quietly developing for the past few months and the pair have been keeping things extremely low-key and largely out of the public eye,’ an insider told the gossip site in mid-June.

And earlier this year, TMZ reported the Oscar winner was being romantically pursued by Paul Salem, 62, the Chairman of the Board of MGM Resorts International.

The publication reported Nicole and Paul share mutual friends, are acquaintances, and have met twice in group settings. The outlet clarified that they were not dating at the time, however.

Kidman also sparked romance rumors with Simon Baker, 56, earlier this year, following their flirtatious promotion of their thriller series Scarpetta.

Kidman and Baker, who play a married couple in Scarpetta, were seen holding hands and beaming together at the show’s New York premiere in March.

Urban was said to be devastated by her rumored romance, given how quickly she appeared to be moving on from their separation last year.

‘Seeing Nicole and Simon holding hands was the equivalent of seeing his best mate with his missus, and it did a number on him,’ an insider told Woman’s Day magazine.

‘He knew it was natural for her to lean on Simon – he was also there for Naomi Watts after her split from Liev [Schreiber].’

The source added that Urban was seriously hoping that Kidman and Baker were just having fun for the cameras, as a genuine romance between them would devastate him.

The Babygirl actress has been close to Baker for decades, and is also good friends with his ex-wife Rebecca Rigg, from whom he separated in 2020.

Amid speculation about their relationship, a source insisted to Page Six that the romance claims are ‘absolutely false,’ noting the two have simply ‘known each other for years and are good friends.’ 

In January, it was reported that Nicole’s A-List friends were encouraging her to move on from her divorce by getting back into the dating pool.

According to Woman’s Day, Nicole’s close buddy Naomi Watts suggested the Oscar winner date fellow Aussie star Baker.

Kidman filed for divorce from Urban in September 2025 after 19 years of marriage. Their divorce was finalized in January earlier this year. 

Under their January divorce settlement, Kidman retained primary custody of the couple’s daughters.

She has the girls for 306 days of the year, while Urban is allocated 59, including Thanksgiving.

Kidman was also famously married to Top Gun star Tom Cruise, 64, from 1990 to 2001, with the former couple sharing adopted children Isabella, 33, and Connor, 31.
