- Friends accuse Keith Urban of trying to “publicly embarrass” Nicole Kidman following their divorce announcement.
- Urban’s pointed lyric change to their special song, “The Fighter,” and unconfirmed affair rumors have fueled the drama.
- Sources claim Urban is having a “midlife crisis” and that Hollywood is now firmly on “#TeamNicole.”
- Kidman, though reportedly “floored” by the events, is ready to move on with the support of her inner circle.
Friends Question Keith Urban’s Motives in Public Split
The unexpected split between Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban has taken a contentious turn, with Kidman’s friends reportedly questioning the country singer’s recent actions. Sources close to the actress claim Urban seems determined to “publicly embarrass and hurt Nic,” a stark departure from his previously quiet demeanor. Despite Urban moving out of their Nashville home over the summer, Kidman had allegedly been holding out hope for a reconciliation.
A Painful and Public Display
The controversy escalated due to Urban’s recent behavior, including changing the lyrics to “The Fighter”—a song once special to his 19-year marriage. An insider noted that rededicating the song to his young guitarist, Maggie Baugh, “says so much about how he’s dealing with their separation.” This, combined with unconfirmed rumors of an affair, has left Kidman’s inner circle protective and frustrated.
Hollywood Rallies Behind Kidman
Described by one source as a “full-blown midlife crisis,” Urban’s actions are having social repercussions. While Kidman is said to be “floored by how blatant it all feels,” she is also “ready to move on” with support from friends like Naomi Watts. Insiders report that Hollywood’s A-list has “closed ranks” around Kidman, making it clear they are on “#TeamNicole.” One source ominously stated that Urban’s “name is gone from every list,” sending a clear message that his behavior is not going unnoticed in the tight-knit celebrity world.
