Keith Urban hilariously reacted when he agreed to help a fan announce her pregnancy.
It happened during his “High and Alive Tour” stop over the weekend at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. The concertgoer arrived at the arena with a sign reading, “WILL YOU TELL MY FAM I’M PREGNANT?” When Urban the woman for her name, she warned the country star that he wouldn’t like it.
“I’m not going to like your name?” Urban asked the woman in fan-recorded videos that have circulated on social media since the concert.
“It’s Nicole,” she replied. The moment took place shortly after Urban’s wife of nearly two decades, Nicole Kidman, filed for divorce.
Urban fell back onto the stage as he (and many audience members) laughed. He joked, “did you say Nicole Richie? …You have a twin.” Ultimately, he jumped down from the stage to join Nicole in the pit and help make a pregnancy announcement. She shared that she and her sister, Rachel, quickly decided to drive to Nashville when Urban’s South Carolina show was canceled as he recovered from laryngitis. The sweet moment included a onesie that reads, “smallest Keith Urban fan.” Urban signed it as he congratulated Nicole, and continued with the show.
Urban, 57, and Kidman, 58, reportedly separated at the beginning of the summer, and Kidman cited “irreconcilable differences” when she filed for divorce on September 30. The former couple met at a gala in 2005 in Los Angeles, California. They got married the following year, on June 25, 2006, in Sydney, Australia. Urban and Kidman share two teen daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14.
