In interviews, Nicole Kidman tends to overemphasize her lowkey life in Nashville, where she and Keith Urban are mostly based and where they’re raising their daughters. I think Nicole spends a lot of time in Nashville, but she owns many other homes. At least one place (maybe more) in Australia. I think she probably has a home in LA, and possibly London too. But this is the first I’m hearing about Nicole owning a home in Lisbon, Portugal? It looks like that’s not her only Portuguese property – she’s looking to buy a vacation home in the same coastal development as Princess Eugenie, Jack Brooksbank and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Not only that, Nicole is applying for Portuguese residency.

Nicole Kidman is on the hunt for a permanent Euro escape, The Post can confirm. The Oscar-winning actress, 58, has applied for residency in Portugal — hinting that she will be looking to spend more time in the sunny country. The “Babygirl” actress submitted her paperwork to the country’s Agency for Integration, Migration and Asylum earlier this week, according to local media outlet SIC Notícias.

Kidman, who was seen stepping out of a private jet in Cascais — a wealthy seaside enclave just outside of Lisbon — has reportedly been browsing for a lavish pad in one of Portugal’s most exclusive gated communities. But notably absent from her application was husband Keith Urban, whose name did not appear on any documents. However, The Post understands that the “Blue Ain’t Your Color” singer, 57, wasn’t mentioned in any paperwork because he was unable to break away from touring at the time.

“Keith was unable to be in Portugal for this appointment as he is currently on tour in the US and it is mandatory for applicants to be physically present in order to apply for the visa,” a source with knowledge of the situation exclusively told The Post. “He is scheduled to submit his application at a later date that works with his tour schedule. While Nicole and Keith own a home in Portugal, their primary residence will continue to be in Nashville.”

Kidman is said to be eyeing up a property at the celeb-loved, 722-acre CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club — a plush development about 81 miles south of Lisbon. The luxury development is known favorite among the Hollywood elite, including George Clooney and Paris Hilton, and is also a base for royal family member Princess Eugenie. It is also where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were rumored to have purchased a property last year. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were said to have splashed out on one of 300 soon-to-be constructed residences belonging to the luxe complex, reportedly costing them more than $4.7 million.

CostaTerra is part of Discovery Land Company, an enterprise founded by Mike Meldman, who, along with George Clooney, invested in the billion-dollar tequila company, Casamigos. And while Urban didn’t file any documents on his part, The Post can confirm that he and the “Eyes Wide Shut” actress already own a plush pad in Lisbon.

It sounds like Nicole is one of those celebrities of means who is looking to get the f–k out of the United States, quite honestly. I just looked up the ages of her daughters… Sunday is 17, Faith is 14. A difficult moment to just pack up and move to another country, but this feels more like a “just in case everything really goes to hell” move. The fact that so many people are buying “vacation homes” in Portugal is a good cover for a lot of “when the sh-t hits the fan” emergency plans.
