Rumors are exploding around Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s reported split, with US Magazine claiming Urban’s on-tour collaborator Maggie Baugh may be at the center of an alleged affair.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are officially done, and the rumor mill is doing laps. The big question making the rounds: did an on-tour fling blow up the marriage? Here is what people are saying, what is actually confirmed, and what is just noise.

Why Maggie Baugh is suddenly in the middle of this

Tabloids like US Magazine have floated a theory that Urban and country singer Maggie Baugh, who has been performing on his current run, got romantically involved. That idea really took off after TMZ framed the split around the possibility of 'another woman' and fans connected the dots because Urban and Baugh are sharing stages right now (they even popped up together on Jimmy Kimmel Live!). Sources who spoke to TMZ about Kidman did not exactly cool things down:

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

Worth stressing: none of the principals have commented. No confirmations, no denials. The only semi-official pushback is from Baugh's dad, Chuck Baugh, who posted a short, emphatic 'NO. Just No' on Facebook about the allegations.

About that Nashville date everyone is reading into

One thing that supercharged the chatter: Baugh won't be onstage at Urban's 'The High and Alive' Tour stop in Nashville on October 17. Internet logic immediately turned that into 'he cut ties with her because of the divorce.' But the actual reason is less dramatic: Baugh is booked to perform in Indiana that same day. Scheduling conflict, not a sudden freeze-out. Also, Nashville is the city Kidman and Urban called home together, which is why this specific date set off extra speculation.

How the split unfolded

Kidman filed and the divorce became official on September 30, 2025. If you were watching closely, there were breadcrumbs earlier in the year:

  • Early summer: multiple reports said they were living in separate houses around Nashville, Tennessee.
  • They skipped a bunch of red carpets and joint appearances.
  • June 20: the last sighting of them together was at a Los Angeles Football Club match in Nashville (yes, an LA team playing in Nashville — MLS schedules are a thing), per Page Six.
  • Kidman later showed up solo at a Clé de Peau Beauté event, where she was named a brand ambassador.
  • And Kidman hasn't been spotted at any of the 'Stupid Boy' singer's shows on this tour since the start of the year.

Where it stands right now

The affair angle is still just that — an angle — based on unnamed sources and fan theories. Urban, Kidman, and Baugh haven't said a word publicly about the allegations. The only on-the-record reaction is from Baugh's father, who flatly rejected the idea. We'll see if anyone involved decides to address it directly, but as of now, it's speculation layered on top of a very public split.
