A recent performance by Keith Urban has surfaced following news of Nicole Kidman filing for divorce from the singer.
Fans have been speculating
The announcement of Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban splitting up came on Monday, September 29, and following this news, fans have been wondering about what might have caused it after 19 years of marriage.
A performance has surfaced
Urban, 57, caught a bit more attention after a clip of a recent performance was shared on Instagram by his utility player and rising country star, Maggie Baugh.
It showed him changing the lyrics to his song The Fighter, featuring Carrie Underwood.
The lyric was changed to include Maggie’s name
The clip shared by Maggie Baugh, shows a lyric from the song being changed to include her name as she performed it with Urban.
The original line is “When they’re tryna get to you, baby I’ll be the fighter” but it was sung by Urban as “When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie I’ll be your guitar player.”
She also wrote a caption under it
Baugh, 25, added two emojis over the video: “🫣 🤯,” while also captioning the post, “Did he just say that👀.”
The clip was shared by the guitar player on Saturday, September 26, a couple of days before news of Urban and Kidman’s split.
Their split was confirmed
The separation of Kidman and Urban was first reported by TMZ but later confirmed by other outlets on Monday, September 29.
According to People, Kidman filed for divorce from the country star on Tuesday, September 30. They had been married for 19 years.
The song was apparently about Kidman
Urban once told Billboard in 2017 that the song, which is off his ninth studio album Ripcord, was inspired by the early days of his romance with Kidman.
“It’s all from a conversation my wife and I had early on in our relationship, that when things get tough, I need to hold her tighter and just try to take care of her,” he said.
He went on to explain the song
“The song is about wanting to heal somebody, wanting to take care of somebody, wanting to protect somebody. It’s really like a vow in so many ways,” Urban continued at the time, referring to Kidman as ‘female and tender’.
He explained at the time that he wanted to protect her
Urban went on, “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. And that’s really the chorus of The Fighter.”
