Nicole Kidman stepped out for a good cause, four days after she filed for divorce from Keith Urban.
The actress, 57, attended amFAR’s Dallas auction in Texas on Saturday, Oct. 4. The event was held in support of the nonprofit’s work to support AIDS research and prevent the spread of HIV worldwide.
News first broke Monday, Sept. 29, that Kidman and country musician Urban, 57, separated in early summer after 19 years of marriage.
When Kidman filed for divorce on Sept. 30, she cited irreconcilable differences and listed the former couple’s date of separation as the time of filing.

“She’s been stressed because she knew the separation would eventually become public and she was dreading it,” a source close to the family told PEOPLE of Kidman on Oct. 2. “But she’s surprisingly level-headed and calm. Now that it’s out, she’s just focused on what’s ahead and her girls.”
On Sept. 29, an insider told PEOPLE that Kidman had been “fighting to save the marriage,” even amid the pair’s private separation in recent months.
“She didn’t want this,” the insider said, noting that “the entire Kidman family has come together to support one another,” particularly Kidman’s sister Antonia. Antonia and the Oscar winner were spotted on a walk together on Wednesday, Oct. 1, which marked Kidman’s first sighting since the news of her divorce first broke.
