Nicole Kidman delved into her family status three months after finalizing her divorce from ex-husband, Keith Urban.

With a handful of highly-anticipated projects set to hit the silver screen, Kidman, 58, is poised to have another banner year, despite a self-imposed hiatus in 2025.

"I was quiet," she told Variety. "I had other things going on. I was in my shell."

She added, "Now I’m in a place of saying, '2026. Here we go.' I have 'Practical Magic' with Sandy [Bullock]. I’ll be in full witch mode."

The Academy Award-winning actress will reprise her role this summer as witchy sister Gillian Owens in the sequel to the '90s cult classic flick.

In January, the "Moulin Rouge" actress finalized her divorce from ex-husband Keith Urban after nearly 20 years of marriage.

Lainey Wilson reveals Keith Urban's brutal 5-word reality check when she complained about grueling schedule

Wed, 04 Mar 2026 16:13:27 -0500

Lainey Wilson revealed the five-word reality check Keith Urban once gave her.

Wilson admitted she was running on fumes after performing over 180 shows in a year, and Urban wasn’t about to let her complain.

"I had been on the road … I think we played 180-something shows that year," she said during an appearance on the podcast "No Filter". "And I saw him, and I was telling him, I was just like, 'I'm tired.' And he was like, ‘No whining on the yacht.’ And I was like, 'Keith, you better get up out my face.'"

That's not the only advice the "You'll Think Of Me" singer has given Wilson.

"Keith Urban has been one of those guys for me," she said. "He told me not long ago. He's like, 'It's better to maintain balance than always be trying to achieve it.'

"To me, that means figure out what works for you," Wilson added. "Have work-life balance and don't lose that. Because once you do, and you're kinda lopsided, then, like, it's hard to get back."

The "Reminders of Him" star also gave a shout-out to Miranda Lambert for helping her find her way in the industry.

"She has been somebody that I can call, and she just, like, tells you like it is," Wilson explained. "And she's one of the people who told me, she's like, 'It's 20% music and 80% business.' And, so, once I started hearing that kind of stuff and just picking up on random wisdom that so many artists have been willing to share with me, I write it down in a little section of my phone."

Wilson also recalled the moment she realized that some of the biggest names in country music had become her friends.

"It was one of those things where now I'm getting invited to the CMA Awards, the Country Music Awards," the "Heart Like a Truck" singer said. "Now I'm getting to sit with these people and sit at the same table as them. It's the craziest thing. And then they start treating you like you are one of them."

Wilson said she couldn't help but think back to her younger self watching the same award shows.

"I just remember being a little girl watching all these awards thinking, 'Man, it'd be really cool if I could be down there in the mix with those people.' Because I felt like I was one of them," she noted.

That feeling deepened once the wins started coming. Wilson was honored as the new artist of the year in 2022 and earned entertainer of the year in 2024 and 2025.

"It was one of those moments for me where I'm like, ‘OK, this industry that I have been working on my relationships for 15 years now, these people have come to bat for me,'" Wilson explained.

"And now, people like Keith Urban and all the other people in between that I've met – when your peers and the people that you look up to are proud for you and voting for you. It makes you feel like, 'OK, like that little 9-year-old girl wasn't that crazy.'"

Keith Urban moved to tears by personal birthday gift with family tribute following Nicole Kidman divorce

Wed, 29 Oct 2025 11:35:28 -0400

Country icon Keith Urban turned 58 on Oct. 26, and he received a gift that struck a deep chord — literally and figuratively.

Following the end of his "High and Alive Tour" — and just weeks after Nicole Kidman’s divorce filing — Urban was moved to tears by a birthday gift that carried a message of hope and healing.

A video shared on singer Chase Matthew’s Instagram page captured the moving backstage moment at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena.

Matthew, who opened for Urban during the "High and Alive Tour," surprised the headliner with an early birthday present to show his appreciation.

"We’ve had such a blast on tour with you @keithurban, Happy Birthday Brother," his Instagram caption read.

The fellow country singer gifted Urban a customized guitar that featured intricate art created by cultural artist Sam Mangakahia, whose work transforms personal stories into "living art" on musical instruments.

Mangakahia’s pieces have also been gifted to stars like Post Malone and Jelly Roll — but Urban’s, he said, carried a deeply personal message.

Titled "The Rise of the Phoenix," the design was Mangakahia’s 30th creation.

"It touches on your family, things that are important to you, your music, polarity in design, culture, where you grew up," Mangakahia explained in the video.

The guitar, he continued, was meant to honor Urban’s life, artistry and resilience — his "ability to inspire others and [his] fearlessness in attacking [his] dreams."

As Mangakahia spoke, cameras captured Urban growing emotional. The "Blue Ain’t Your Color" singer was seen wiping away tears before finally opening the case to reveal the finished piece.

While the country singer’s tour came to a close, Urban made several special nods to his family during his previous performances.

One notable moment during his Oct. 2 concert in Hershey, Pennsylvania, was when Urban strummed through his 2024 track, "Heart Like a Hometown." During that performance, a slideshow of photos appeared, and despite the divorce news, a photo of Kidman and their two children was featured.

On Sept. 30, Kidman filed for divorce from Urban. She cited "irreconcilable differences" and ongoing "marital difficulties," according to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

In September, sources told People magazine, "Nicole’s sister has been a rock, and the entire Kidman family has come together to support one another."

"She didn’t want this. She has been fighting to save the marriage."

"When you wake up on a tour bus at 3:30 in the morning, and you’re sick as a dog, you’re in the middle of nowhere, and you’ve got to play your fifth show later that night, and you haven’t slept, and you miss your friends, and you’re missing your family, and you’re completely lonely and miserable and sick, and you say to yourself, ‘Why am I doing this?'"

"Where do we start? It’s a calling, and you’re going to do it, or you’re not going to make it," Urban said.

The Grammy Award-winning artist confessed, "The only answer can be because this is what I’m born to do. We’re going to find out who’s made for that stuff [on this show]."

Keith Urban's guitarist, Maggie Baugh, not romantically involved with singer, friend confirms

Fri, 24 Oct 2025 20:10:49 -0400

Keith Urban is not dating Maggie Baugh, according to her friend, country singer Alexandra Kay.

Kay denied Baugh was romantically involved with Urban in an interview with Taste of Country, revealing her friend already has a boyfriend.

Romance rumors between Urban, 57, and his guitarist Baugh, 25, began after a video surfaced in which he used her name in a song while they performed on stage together.

The rumors come almost one month after Nicole Kidman filed for divorce from Urban after 19 years of marriage.

MAGGIE BAUGH: WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT KEITH URBAN'S GUITAR PLAYER

"Honestly, I was heartbroken for them because the media scrutiny is insane and the things that people say. … They're like stirring up rumors about Maggie Baugh, and I'm like, 'She's a good friend of mine, and I know that's absolutely not true,'" Kay told the outlet.

"I've met her boyfriend, and she's very happy. And she has nothing to do with that whole relationship [Urban and Kidman].

"I feel sad for everybody involved that people are doing that and picking apart their personal life," she added. "I pray for peace for them and for everybody to have their privacy."

A representative for Urban and Baugh did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

The video of him name-dropping Baugh, who is also a singer, was shot during their performance together, singing his hit song "The Fighter," originally recorded with Carrie Underwood.

He swapped out the lyric "When they're tryna get to you, baby I'll be the fighter" with "When they're tryna get to you, Maggie, I'll be your guitar player."

Baugh posted the video to her Instagram Sept. 26, four days before Kidman filed for divorce from Urban.

She captioned the video: "Did he just say that," adding an eyes emoji.

However, this is not the first time Urban has altered lyrics on stage for his duet partner.

In 2017, Urban changed the lyric while performing with Underwood at the CMT Music Awards.

He swapped the lyric with, "Carrie Underwood, I'm gonna be your fighter!"

Last week, Urban appeared to address fans reading too much into his lyric changes, noting he has done that on many occasions.

His comments came during his tour stop in Nashville for his High and Alive World Tour, right before singing his hit tune "You'll Think of Me."

"I've been covering like this for a long time. Stop reading s--- into it. It's called 'You'll Think of Me,'" according to a video shared by a fan on TikTok.

The country singer changed the lyric "But you'll think of me" to "But I betcha think about me!" and the lyric "Take your space and take your reasons" to "All your bull---- reasons."

Urban and Kidman married in 2006, welcoming two daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret.

Keith Urban tells fans to stop reading into his concert behavior amid Nicole Kidman divorce

Country music star Keith Urban is pushing back against speculation that recent changes to his concert lyrics reflect his highly publicized split from Nicole Kidman.

During the final night of his "High and Alive Tour" in Nashville on Friday, Oct. 17, Urban had a message for his fans during his performance.

"I’ve been covering like this for a long time. Stop reading s--- into it," Urban told the audience before performing an acoustic version of his 2002 hit "You’ll Think of Me," according to a fan TikTok video.

Urban’s updated performance included some emotionally charged tweaks.

Instead of the original chorus line, "You’ll think of me," he shouted, "But I betcha think about me!" Elsewhere, the line "Take your space and take your reasons" was turned into "all your bulls--- reasons," a noticeably harsher tone that some fans took as a jab at his estranged wife.

"It’s not music if you can’t sing with emotion," one fan wrote.

Another comment read, "He didn’t even know Nicole when he first started singing this live, just like this."

"Been a fan of his since the late 1990s. What he said is 100 truth. Leave him be," a comment read with a 100% emoji.

Urban’s remarks during his performance came after his highly publicized divorce from Kidman became a talking point during his tour.

Keith Urban has awkward moment with fan named Nicole at Nashville concert

Sat, 18 Oct 2025 16:20:53 -0400

Keith Urban narrowly avoided an awkward situation during an interaction with a fan at his latest concert.

In a fan-recorded video shared on TikTok, the 57-year-old country star can be heard having a conversation with a fan during his concert at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville Friday, Oct.17, as part of his High and Alive tour.

"I'm not going to like your name?" Urban can be heard asking the fan. She then responded, "It’s Nicole."

After hearing her name, the crowd laughed, and Urban fell backward and lay on the stage for a few seconds. He then got up and sidestepped the apparent reference to Nicole Kidman by asking the fan, "Did you say Nicole Richie?"

The video then panned to the jumbotron, which showed the fan standing next to Urban with a gray onesie that said "Smallest Keith Urban fan" on the front.

The funny fan moment came one day after Urban canceled his Oct. 16 show in South Carolina due to a mild illness.

"Keith Urban has been advised by his longtime laryngologist Dr. Gaelyn Garrett, from the Vanderbilt Voice Center, to cancel his performance in Greenville, SC tonight at Bon Secours Wellness Arena due to laryngitis which began earlier this week," a statement on the venue's website said.

"He has been placed on complete vocal rest and Dr. Garrett is optimistic that he will be back onstage for his Nashville show."

Keith Urban forced to cancel South Carolina concert last minute

Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:38:04 -0400

Keith Urban was forced to cancel his South Carolina concert as he recovers from a mild illness.

The 57-year-old country singer had been scheduled to perform Thursday night at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, as part of his High and Alive tour but canceled at the last minute.

The venue's website released a statement saying, "Keith Urban has been advised by his longtime laryngologist Dr. Gaelyn Garrett, from the Vanderbilt Voice Center, to cancel his performance in Greenville, SC tonight at Bon Secours Wellness Arena due to laryngitis which began earlier this week. He has been placed on complete vocal rest and Dr. Garrett is optimistic that he will be back onstage for his Nashville show."

The statement also included a personal message from Urban apologizing to fans for the sudden cancellation.

KEITH URBAN SEEN FOR FIRST TIME SINCE NICOLE KIDMAN DIVORCE FILING

"Hey Greenville, I’m so SO sorry to have to cancel the show …. I know all the logistics it takes to get to a concert these days and I’ve never taken any of that, or any of YOU for granted," he said. "I’m looking forward to getting back there when we can!!!!!"

The cancellation comes just weeks after Urban and his estranged wife, Nicole Kidman, filed for divorce after nearly 20 years of marriage.

News of their separation broke Sept. 29, with Kidman filing for divorce the following day. According to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital, Kidman cited "irreconcilable differences" and ongoing "marital difficulties" as their reason for their split and listed Sept. 30 as their date of separation.

"Nicole’s sister [Antonia] has been a rock, and the entire Kidman family has come together to support one another," a source told People when the news broke.

"She didn’t want this," the source added. "She has been fighting to save the marriage."

In a recent interview with Harper's Bazaar, published Oct. 9, Kidman discussed how she copes with difficult situations by drawing comparisons to similar experiences she has had in the past.

While she didn't name Urban outright, she explained that she has learned new ways to deal with hardship as she gets older, saying, "The best part is the experiences that you've accumulated," because, at a certain point, she can look at a situation and think, "Oh, I’ve been here before. I actually know how to handle this now.

"There’s something to knowing that no matter how painful or how difficult or how devastating something is, there is a way through," she told the outlet. "You’re going to have to feel it. You’re not going to be able to numb it. You are going to have to feel it, and it's going to feel insurmountable at times. 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."

Nicole Kidman shares wisdom on overcoming 'devastating' times amid Keith Urban divorce

Fri, 10 Oct 2025 13:44:46 -0400

Less than two weeks after filing for divorce from Keith Urban, Nicole Kidman is opening up about emotional life challenges and how age has given her the tools to get through even the darkest days.

In a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar published Oct. 9, Kidman, 58, shared her wisdom and how she coped through difficult times while holding tight to what matters most — her children and her inner strength.

"The best part is the experiences that you've accumulated," Kidman said. "You go, ‘Oh, I’ve been here before. I actually know how to handle this now' or ‘maybe I haven’t been in this place, but I've experienced something similar to this, and I do know that I will get through it.’"

Her comments come on the heels of her divorce filing from Urban on Sept. 30 after 19 years of marriage. The couple has two daughters together — Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14. Kidman also shares two adult children with ex-husband Tom Cruise — Bella, 32, and Connor, 30.

Despite the personal turmoil, Kidman said her role as a mother has grounded her.

"My children [give me the] purpose of being their protector and their guide," she said. "Promising them that I'm here and that, no matter what, there’s always a safe place to grow up in."

Before the news of her separation from Urban broke, Kidman shared a heartfelt reflection about life’s unpredictability.

Weeks before the actress officially filed for divorce, Kidman subtly alluded in a Vogue interview to what appeared to be a cryptic preview of the split.

When asked about life in her 50s, she reflected, "How many times do you have to be taught that you think you know where your life is going, and then it isn’t going in that direction?"

At the time of her interview in late August, the "Babygirl" star had not publicly confirmed her split.

Nicole Kidman leans on daughters Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret as she navigates Keith Urban split

Wed, 08 Oct 2025 07:00:00 -0400

Nicole Kidman is leaning on her teenage daughters as she navigates her divorce from Keith Urban.

Kidman listed Sept. 30 as the couple’s date of separation. Although Kidman and Urban's split may have seemed sudden to fans, those close to the couple said it was a long time coming.

According to the divorce filing, Kidman asked to be named the primary residential parent of Sunday and Faith. Additionally, she petitioned the court to approve a parenting plan for their daughters, which allocated 306 days per year with her and 59 days each year with Urban.

It "really hasn’t been a secret," a source told People, adding they "have been living separately for a while now."

"People close to Keith felt like the split was kind of inevitable," the source claimed.

Since then, Kidman and the couple's daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14, have been spotted together enjoying the Chanel show during Paris Fashion Week.

A source close to the family told People in August that Nicole and her daughters "have been inseparable" all summer, spending most of their time together.

At the time, the "Big Little Lies" actress took to Instagram to share photos with Sunday and Faith, concluding their summer break.

"Summer memories ❤️ Now back to school ✨," Kidman captioned her carousel of images. Noticeably absent from any of the pictures and videos was Urban.

At the start of summer, Kidman told Allure that she likes who she is as a mother and gets to be her daughters "guide."

"I do, actually. Yeah. I’m very close to both my girls."

"I sit on their beds and discuss the most intimate things; I get to be their guide. If they want to tell me to be quiet, they can. I'm able to apologize to them. I'm able to stand up to them. I very much like the relationship we have. It’s nice to be able to say that," she told the outlet.

In August 2024, Kidman told Elle that she loved having teenage daughters.

"I love teenage girls. I just find them exquisite. I marvel at that age group and what they’re dealing with, but also their ability to handle so much," she said at the time.

When having teenage daughters, it's safe to assume that sharing clothes is a hot topic in Kidman's household.

In January, Kidman told W Magazine that she's consciously saved all of her red carpet looks for her daughters to get their hands on.

"I've saved all the red carpet dresses. I have them all beautifully boxed. They're museum pieces. They raid my wardrobe all the time. I'm like, 'Okay, what's mine is yours.' But I don't raid their closet, even though I'm like, 'Oh, that's cute.' But I'm not allowed to take anything. It's a one-way exchange," she said.

Nicole Kidman makes first public appearance since Keith Urban divorce filing

Nicole Kidman put on a brave face Saturday, just days after she filed for divorce from Keith Urban.

The Oscar-winning actress was on hand to present Taylor Sheridan with the Award of Inspiration at the amfAR Dallas Gala.

Kidman, 58, rocked a long black gown for her first public appearance following the end of her 19-year marriage with Urban, 57.

Days before Kidman filed for divorce from Urban, Maggie Baugh — a 25-year-old country star who is currently on tour with Urban and his band — posted an eyebrow-raising video from a recent show that left fans questioning the nature of her relationship with the country star.

"When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player," Urban sang onstage — replacing the original line, "When they’re tryna get to you, baby, I’ll be the fighter."

She wrote in her caption, "Did he just say that," accompanied by the eyes emoji.

However, according to People, Urban often ad-libs when performing the song live. For example, while singing "The Fighter" with Carrie Underwood at the 2017 CMT Music Awards, he interjected, "Carrie Underwood, I'm gonna be your fighter!"

While an insider confirmed to Fox News Digital that there have been whispers of another woman, TMZ was first to report that the country star may already be involved with someone else, with a source close to Kidman saying, "All the signs point to the fact Keith is with another woman. Let's just say Nicole doesn't dispute that, but she's still shocked over it."

While rumors of Keith Urban's troubled marriage to Nicole Kidman continue to swirl, his guitarist Maggie Baugh is finding herself suddenly center stage.

However, according to various social media posts obtained by the Daily Mail, the Florida native may be romantically linked to Cameron Coley, a 25-year-old lighting designer from California.

The lyrics to the song, titled "The Devil Win," read: "I don't know what the hell I believe in/ I don't know how to heal my soul or how to fight this feeling/ It's a damn good place to go/ No matter how close I get to the burning edge/ Tempting as it is/ I won't let the devil win."

Fans were quick to point out the coincidental timing. "Hmm interesting lyrics here," one user wrote.

"Karma - does not hold a candle to Nicole," another wrote. Though others praised Baugh for her creativity.

"Maggie, you are a beautiful songwriter ~ along with all your other incredible talents. Continue to shine girl and live it up as your career is simply shining evermore! This is a great song," one fan quipped.

Sat, 04 Oct 2025 16:14:35 -0400

Nicole Kidman’s six-word quip about her divorce from Tom Cruise is going viral after her split from Keith Urban.

Appearing on "The Late Show with David Letterman" on Aug. 2, 2001, Kidman was in the middle of her highly publicized divorce from Cruise when the late-night host opened the interview with a blunt question.

"I heard you're getting divorced. How's that going?" he asked at the time.

Letterman remarked that her appearance on the show was a good sign things were "all right," to which she responded with a half-smile, telling him, "I'd probably still be here" even if they weren't.

When asked whether people were constantly bringing up her breakup, the Oscar-winning actress admitted, "Um, yeah, I get a lot of questions."

Kidman’s next six-word quip left the audience cheering, and fans are still buzzing years later.

With a sly smile and a pause, Kidman delivered, "Well, I can wear heels now."

The audience erupted in applause, and even Letterman laughed. "Let’s move on," Kidman said. "Now we move on."

Kidman joined Letterman at the time to promote her horror film, "The Others."

Letterman went on to make cheeky remarks during the interview, as Kidman and the late-night host continued to trade playful banter.

"Things are fine. It’s fine," Kidman said, brushing off her high-profile split with Cruise. Then, with a smirk, she threw it back to Letterman, asking, "How was your divorce?"

Clips of the 2001 interview have sparked fan reaction on social media, with one user making the comment, "Good. I've been missing her excellent taste in shoes."

Before marrying Urban in 2006, Kidman was married to Cruise for more than a decade. The two met on the set of "Days of Thunder" in 1989, married the following year and adopted two children, Isabella and Connor, before splitting in 2001.

The interview clip has resurfaced online following news that Kidman and Urban have called it quits after 19 years of marriage.

On Sept. 30, Kidman filed for divorce from Urban. She cited "irreconcilable differences" and ongoing "marital difficulties," according to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

In his first concert after Kidman filed for divorce, the country superstar took the stage in Hershey, Pennsylvania Oct. 2 with a show full of surprises, one being the absence of Maggie Baugh, a guitarist for Urban who has been thrust into the narrative of his split from Kidman.

The guitarist has recently been in the spotlight after a video began circulating that shows Urban changing a lyric in his song "The Fighter," originally written for Kidman, to name Baugh during a September concert.

At the Oct. 2 show, Us Weekly reported, Urban dropped the song altogether.

One notable moment in the country singer's performance came when Urban strummed through his 2024 track, "Heart Like a Hometown." During that performance, a slideshow of photos appeared, and despite the divorce news, a photo of Kidman and their two children was featured.

Keith Urban's guitarist Maggie Baugh has been thrust into the spotlight, while whispers continue to swirl about the country star's failed marriage to Nicole Kidman.

In the video, posted by Baugh, Urban is heard swapping out a key lyric from his song, "The Fighter" – a track famously inspired by Kidman.

"When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player," Urban, 57, sang onstage — replacing the original line, "When they’re tryna get to you, baby, I’ll be the fighter."

She wrote in her caption, "Did he just say that," accompanied by the eyes emoji.

KEITH URBAN'S AWKWARD INTERVIEWS SEEMINGLY HINTED AT NICOLE KIDMAN MARRIAGE ISSUES

Baugh's father, Chuck Baugh, told the Daily Mail that he's not privy to any relationship between the two besides a working relationship.

"I don’t know anything about it, other than she’s a guitar player for him," he said on Thursday. "It’s more of a musician thing than a dating thing," he said, before admitting that he hasn’t "heard one way or the other."

Chuck's comments came after rumors started swirling there may be a new woman in Urban's life.

While an insider confirmed to Fox News Digital that there have been whispers of another woman, TMZ was first to report that the country star may already be involved with someone else.

"All the signs point to the fact Keith is with another woman. Let's just say Nicole doesn't dispute that, but she's still shocked over it," a source close to Kidman told the outlet.

A representative for Baugh did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

On top of her professional connection to Urban, here are five things to know about the rising star.

1. Maggie moved to Nashville to pursue a dream at 18 years old

During a recent interview with The Hamilton County Reporter last month, Baugh said, "I started going to Nashville when I was 13 and started songwriting around the same age. I put out my very first record when I was 13 years old."

"When I was 18 years old, I moved to Nashville and started touring a bunch," she said. "Last year, I was on tour with Keith Urban and it’s been a crazy wild journey, man."

2. She's a self-starter

During that same interview, Baugh revealed no one in her family has a musical background.

"Nobody in my family plays music," Baugh said. "I’m literally the only one. Isn’t that crazy? I’m the oddball. My dad is a microbiologist, and my mom is a stay-at-home mom who runs a dog training business on the side."

"I had to write my feelings down," Baugh told People in 2021. "I chose music as an outlet instead of doing something horrible that kids do now when they're depressed and bullied. I fell in love with music and pouring my heart out into words."

3. Music is her true love

Baugh once compared music to her "boyfriend."

"I feel like music has always just been my boyfriend. So, whenever I have a boyfriend, it's always like, 'Oh, you're just temporary,'" she told People. "But when I do go through a breakup, I don't go to the bar. I put my guitar in my hands."

Baugh recently teased a new single about fighting temptation among negativity.

"There is so many negative vibes in the world right now. I wanted to write this song to give some encouragement," Baugh wrote on Instagram, alongside a preview of the song.

Fans were quick to point out the coincidental timing. "Hmm interesting lyrics here," one user wrote.

"Karma - does not hold a candle to Nicole," another wrote. Though others praised Baugh for her creativity.

4. She's famous on TikTok

Baugh created her TikTok series, Finish the Lick, in 2022.

During an interview with Up N Country in 2022, Baugh admitted she had some reservations about joining the popular social media platform.

"I never really found like my thing on TikTok until literally a month ago," she said. "I did a few guitar videos throughout the year and, I think, a few of them blew up. But my following was 20,000 followers or something like that. And so, literally a month ago, I was just in my room hanging out and I was [thinking], ‘I want to do this thing called Finish the Lick.’"

5. Maggie's currently on tour with Keith Urban

The country singer, who has played alongside stars such as Luke Bryan and Trace Adkins, is currently on Urban's "High and Alive World Tour."

She's been actively sharing moments from the tour on social media.

Additionally, she petitioned the court to approve a parenting plan for their daughters, which allocated 306 days per year with her and 59 days each year with Urban.

Although Kidman and Urban's split may seem sudden to fans, those close to the couple said it was a long time coming.

It "really hasn’t been a secret," a source told People, adding they "have been living separately for a while now."

"People close to Keith felt like the split was kind of inevitable," the source claimed.

Insiders close to the couple said they had already been living separate lives, emotionally and physically, for some time.

"Their lives were moving in different directions, and once he quietly set up his own place, it felt like the writing was on the wall," another source told the outlet.

Keith Urban's awkward interviews seemingly hinted at Nicole Kidman marriage issues

Thu, 02 Oct 2025 07:00:00 -0400

Writing appeared to be on the wall that their marriage was on the rocks long before Nicole Kidman filed for divorce from Keith Urban.

The "Big Little Lies" actress filed for divorce Tuesday from the country crooner and cited "irreconcilable differences" as the grounds for divorce, while also noting "marital difficulties" in documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

Earlier this summer, Urban, 57, awkwardly ended an Australian radio interview when pressed on Kidman content and appeared to be uncomfortable once again while speaking about his wife's work during an "On Air with Ryan Seacrest" chat.

NICOLE KIDMAN AND KEITH URBAN END MARRIAGE AS ACTRESS EXPERIENCES MAJOR CAREER COMEBACK: EXPERT

The pair's last public outing together was in June at a FIFA Club World Cup match in Nashville between Los Angeles Football Club and Esperance de Tunis.

That same month, Urban abruptly ended a radio interview with Australia's Mix 102.3's "Haley & Max in the Morning" after the host inquired about Kidman during the "Wall of Truth" game.

"The first thing I thought of with your beautiful wife, Nicole Kidman, being on so many great movies, TV shows all the time," Max said. "What does Keith Urban think when he sees his beautiful wife with beautiful younger men like Zac Efron having these beautiful love scenes on TV and radio?"

As soon as the question was recited, Urban signed off the Zoom call. Co-host Hayley questioned what happened with the connection before realizing, "I think his team hung up on us because they didn't want us to ask that question."

KEITH URBAN CHANGES NICOLE KIDMAN-INSPIRED LYRIC TO NAME HIS GUITARIST MAGGIE BEFORE DIVORCE ANNOUNCEMENT

Max confirmed the show hadn't been asked to stray from any question.

"But he was, like, smiling," Max said before Hayley chimed in, "I know, but he doesn't like the personal stuff. Oh, I knew that would happen. We’ve upset him."

She continued, "I said to you, I don't want to have a part of this because I don't want to ask these questions. Because he'll hate us. I don't want to make him feel uncomfortable."

For Kidman's role in the Richard LaGravenese-directed flick "A Family Affair," she portrayed a widow in a love triangle with her daughter's boss, played by Efron, 37.

Then, in "Babygirl," Kidman stripped completely nude while playing a high-level CEO who embarks on a sexual reawakening with a young intern played by Harris Dickinson, 28.

Kidman explained that her "Babygirl" role was often too physically and emotionally intense.

"There was an enormous amount of sharing and trust and then frustration," Kidman told The Sun in October 2024. "It’s like, ‘Don’t touch me.'"

"There were times when we were shooting where I was like, ‘I don’t want to orgasm any more. Don’t come near me. I hate doing this.'"

When the country singer joined Ryan Seacrest for a July appearance on the media mogul's radio show, Urban kept tight-lipped with his answers.

"Do people tell you your wife is in everything? Like everything. Nicole Kidman is in everything," Seacrest said, to which Urban laughed and agreed she was "almost as busy" as the "American Idol" host, but "not quite."

"Is that something with your life, her life and mapping it all out with production and touring – that's a job, isn't it?" Seacrest pressed. Urban paused for a moment before responding, "It's a job, ya. Life is in session."

In a recently resurfaced interview from 2024, Urban's "amazing love story" was the topic of conversation on the "Jam Nation with Jonesy & Amanda" podcast.

"If you hadn’t both been there that day, would your paths somewhere have inevitably crossed? Or maybe this incredible life story wouldn’t have happened," Amanda asked, to which Urban responded, "No, I think it would."

She then asked if the Grammy winner believed in fate, which Urban bluntly replied, "No idea," before an awkward silence filled the room.

"I just often think that … That if you weren’t at that event, maybe you don’t have the same friendship group, it may never have happened," the host continued.

Urban appeared uncomfortable as he removed his jacket and responded, "You never know. Anyway, moving on."

Last weekend, Urban swapped out a key lyric from his song, "The Fighter" – a track famously inspired by his soon-to-be ex-wife.

"When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player," Urban sang onstage in reference to a musician in his touring band, Maggie Baugh – replacing the original line, "When they’re tryna get to you, baby, I’ll be the fighter."

The moment was caught on video and posted to Instagram by Baugh. She wrote in her caption, "Did he just say that," accompanied with the eyes emoji.

An insider told Fox News Digital that they have heard whispers of another woman.

TMZ was first to report that Urban may already be involved with another woman, with a source close to Kidman saying, "All the signs point to the fact Keith is with another woman. Let's just say Nicole doesn't dispute that, but she's still shocked over it."

Another source claimed to the outlet the news of Urban's rumored new fling is "all over Nashville."

People magazine reported that Kidman feels "very betrayed" by her marriage of 19 years coming to an end.

"Nicole's hurt and feels betrayed. It's devastating to her. She's shocked," a source told the outlet.

Kidman listed Sept. 30 as the couple’s date of separation.

Although Kidman and Urban's split may seem sudden to fans, those close to the couple said it was a long time coming.

It "really hasn’t been a secret," a source told People, adding they "have been living separately for a while now."

"People close to Keith felt like the split was kind of inevitable," the source claimed.

Insiders close to the couple said they had already been living separate lives, emotionally and physically, for some time.

"Their lives were moving in different directions, and once he quietly set up his own place, it felt like the writing was on the wall," another source told the outlet.

In the divorce filing, the "Big Little Lies" star asked to be named the primary residential parent of the couple’s two daughters.

She also requested the court approve a parenting plan that would give her 306 days a year with the children, leaving 59 days annually with Urban. Kidman and Urban share two daughters: Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret.

The Oscar-winning actress first met Urban in 2005 at an event in Australia. One year later, the couple married in Sydney.

Keith Urban changes Nicole Kidman-inspired lyric to name his guitarist Maggie before divorce announcement

Wed, 01 Oct 2025 11:20:06 -0400

Keith Urban swapped out a key lyric from his song, "The Fighter" – a track famously inspired by his soon-to-be ex-wife, Nicole Kidman.

The country superstar is now raising eyebrows after fans discovered that during a recent live performance, he changed the words to his 2017 duet with Carrie Underwood to reference a musician in his touring band, Maggie Baugh, 25.

"When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player," Urban, 57, sang onstage — replacing the original line, "When they’re tryna get to you, baby, I’ll be the fighter."

The moment was caught on video and posted to Instagram by Baugh.

She wrote in her caption, "Did he just say that," accompanied with the eyes emoji.

The clip was shared on Saturday, Sept. 26 — just days before news broke that Urban and Kidman were calling it quits after nearly two decades of marriage.

Fans had mixed reactions to the video of the lyric swap.

"Nicole deserves better," one comment read.

Another fan wrote, "Wow, that song was made for Nicole. For him to do that tells us what he’s really all about. That’s just disgusting."

Others didn’t see a problem with the lyric swap.

"I think he really loves having you on stage with him, Maggie. Keith recognizes talent when he sees and hears it," one fan wrote.

Another comment read, "Nobody knows what happened between Keith and Nicole… Leave it alone."

Urban and Baugh have been on the road together all summer. The "High and Alive World Tour" continues through mid-October, with more dates scheduled in the Bahamas and U.K. into 2026.

In 2017, Urban shared that "The Fighter" was a personal song dedicated to Kidman.

"It’s all from a conversation my wife and I had early on in our relationship," Urban told Billboard at the time. "That when things get tough, I need to hold her tighter and just try to take care of her."

He called the song "really like a vow," and described Kidman as "female and tender."

"I want that tenderness to not have to get hardened to the world. That’s my job as her husband — to put myself around her so she can remain that way," he said.

"And that’s really the chorus of ‘The Fighter.’"

On Sept. 30, Kidman had filed for divorce from Urban, ending 19 years of marriage. She cited "irreconcilable differences" and ongoing "marital difficulties," according to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban end marriage as actress experiences major career comeback: expert

Wed, 01 Oct 2025 08:00:24 -0400

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's split after nearly 20 years of marriage came as a surprise to many.

Kidman, 58, married Urban, 57, in 2006 after meeting at an event in Australia the year before. The A-list couple welcomed two daughters during their relationship, while also juggling massive careers and lives in both Hollywood and Nashville.

On the heels of a banner year when Kidman starred in a handful of acclaimed projects, including "Babygirl," "The Perfect Couple" and "A Family Affair," the Australian star's career comeback may have created an "intense, sudden shift" in the architect of her marriage, according to Adrienne Uthe, founder of Kronus Communications.

"A major career comeback or resurgence creates an intense, sudden shift in a marriage's entire architecture," Uthe told Fox News Digital. "We see this with Nicole Kidman’s incredible run – from her commanding presence in ‘The Perfect Couple’ to her bold step into 'Cougar Nation' territory with ‘Babygirl.’"

"The issue isn't simply 'time spent apart'; it's about the sudden disparity in lifestyle, values, and mental bandwidth."

Uthe noted how Kidman's comeback likely changed the fundamental "rhythm of the relationship."

"It's often a case of one person accelerating their pace while the other has settled into a routine," Uthe said. "The true conflict often boils down to: whose career defines the pace of the family unit now? This kind of professional re-ignition can expose existing fault lines and fuel external drama, regardless of the private reality."

The "Moulin Rouge!" actress filed for divorce Tuesday from the country crooner and cited "irreconcilable differences" as the grounds for divorce, noting "marital difficulties," in documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

Kidman also requested to be named the primary residential parent of their two minor children. Additionally, she petitioned the court to approve a parenting plan for their daughters, which allocated 306 days per year with her and 59 days each year with Urban.

In addition to "Expats" and "Spellbound," Kidman starred in the David E. Kelley drama, "Nine Perfect Strangers" and returned for the second season of the Paramount+ series "Lioness." Uthe noted that demanding schedules with heavy travel schedules may have prevented the couple from nurturing their partnership.

"That intense schedule is then placed under the unrelenting scrutiny of the public eye," Uthe said. "Any rumor, even if purposely manufactured, or any simple picture taken out of context can be magnified into a massive marital crisis."

"That constant, external pressure cooker is a stressor that only celebrity couples have to manage, and it can erode the stability of even the strongest foundations."

The pair's last public outing together was in June at a FIFA Club World Cup match in Nashville between Los Angeles Football Club and Esperance de Tunis.

That same month, Urban abruptly ended a radio interview with Australia's Mix 102.3's "Haley & Max in the Morning" after the host inquired about Kidman during the "Wall of Truth" game.

Max confirmed the show hadn't been asked to stray from any question.

"But he was, like, smiling," Max said before Hayley chimed in, "I know, but he doesn't like the personal stuff. Oh, I knew that would happen. We’ve upset him."

She continued, "I said to you, I don't want to have a part of this because I don't want to ask these questions. Because he'll hate us. I don't want to make him feel uncomfortable."

For Kidman's role in the Richard LaGravenese-directed flick "A Family Affair," she portrayed a widow in a love triangle with her daughter's boss, played by Efron, 37.

Then, in the BDSM-fueled flick "Babygirl," Kidman stripped completely nude while playing a high-level CEO who embarks on a sexual reawakening with a young intern played by Harris Dickinson, 28.

Uthe added that frequent separations alone are enough of a catalyst to cause "deeper rifts."

Kidman recently wrapped filming "Practical Magic 2" in London, while Urban has remained on tour, with his "High and Alive World Tour" continuing into the fall.

His next performance is scheduled for Oct. 2 in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

"For high-achieving celebrity couples, there must be an unspoken or explicit agreement where one partner takes the lead while the other provides a support structure, or they carefully alternate," Uthe said. "When you have two global power players, the separation inevitably creates a battle not for the spotlight, but for time, energy, and priority."

"When both partners are in demand, every decision becomes a negotiation over which career takes precedence and how to maintain focus on core family values. The distance and the professional demands can make it easier to retreat into their individual successes rather than work on the relationship, allowing minor issues to fester and become irreconcilable problems."

And while Kidman and Urban's split stunned fans, those close to the country star say it was a long time coming.

It "really hasn’t been a secret," a source told People, adding that the couple "have been living separately for a while now."

"People close to Keith felt like the split was kind of inevitable," the source claimed. Insiders close to the couple said they had already been living separate lives, emotionally and physically, for some time.

"Their lives were moving in different directions, and once he quietly set up his own place, it felt like the writing was on the wall," another source told the outlet.

Neither Kidman nor Urban has publicly commented on their split. "Nicole’s sister has been a rock and the entire Kidman family has come together to support one another," a source told People following news of the high-profile breakup.

"She didn’t want this. She has been fighting to save the marriage."
