Breaking News:Nicole Kidman’s husband Keith Urban makes heart-melting confession about their marriage

The Moulin Rouge! star has been married to Keith Urban for almost 18 years.

Keith Urban opened up about how his wife Nicole Kidman impacts his performances. The country star, who has been married to the Oscar winner for almost 18 years, revealed that when she appears at his concerts he usually amps it up a little.

“It fires me up a bit more”, he told People. “I try to impress her.”

Nicole has often been spotted watching her husband perform from backstage, and has even come out onstage on occasion. As his wife turned 56, Keith walked her out on stage, hand in hand.

“We’ve got wives in the house”, he said as the audience screamed. Nicole looked every bit the wife of a world class musician in cool stonewashed jeans a black lacy top, and she wore no shoes whatsoever.

“Happy Birthday baby girl”, Keith said, as he kissed her, and she disappeared off stage to put the attention back on her husband.

This isn’t the first time the country musician has made it clear how much he adores his wife, as he revealed in a speech at the 49th AFI Life Achievement Award Gala on April 27.
