Nicole blindsided HAS KEITH ALREADY MOVED ON?

DATING RUMOURS BEGIN AFTER SHOCK SPLIT

- 

The shock news that golden couple Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban had split after almost two decades was quickly usurped by the even more surprising allegations that Keith may have already moved on ... with a younger woman on the country music scene!

Nicole, 58, is said to be devastated, having spent months hoping for a reconciliation, even after Keith moved into his own bachelor pad and instigated their separation.

“Nicole wanted to fight for them, but Keith had already checked out,” a source told Hollywood insider Rob Shuter.

The source added, “[Nicole’s] not naive. She heard the stories, she saw the signs. At some point, the truth becomes impossible to ignore.”

Talk about Keith, 57, dating again, with a woman who’s name hadn’t been revealed when New Idea went to press, have been “all over Nashville” reports the Daily Mail.

Amid the new romance headlines, video footage of Keith performing with up-and-coming guitarist Maggie Baugh caught the eye of fans online.

At that particular show, the singer changed the lyrics to ‘The Fighter’ – a song inspired by his and Nicole’s romance – to instead reference Maggie, who has been touring with him in recent months.

“When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player,” Keith sang. The original version has ‘baby’, a nod to Nicole, in place of ‘Maggie’. Maggie, 25, posted the video on Instagram with the caption, “Did he just say that.”

Now, an insider tells New Idea that Nicole was shocked by the lyric change, and is struggling to cope with the possible “cruel snub” on top of having to deal with her second very public divorce.

“It goes without saying Nicole is devastated and humiliated,” New Idea’s well-placed Nashville source dishes.
