Amid the news of his divorce from Nicole Kidman, musician Keith Urban has become the subject of fresh speculation after a recent concert moment drew attention to his 25-year-old guitarist, Maggie Baugh.

Keith Urban linked to younger bandmate Maggie Baugh amid Nicole Kidman divorce
The “Blue Ain’t Your Color” singer has drawn renewed attention for his onstage dynamic with 25-year-old guitarist and bandmate Maggie Baugh.
While performing on stage, Keith Urban altered the lyrics of “The Fighter,” a song originally written for Nicole Kidman. Instead of the usual line addressed to his now ex-wife, he sang, “When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player.”
The change was caught on video and later posted by Baugh to Instagram with the caption, “Did he just say that,” sparking online discussion about the nature of their relationship.
Maggie Baugh, a 25-year-old musician who has been performing with Urban, has since become the subject of speculation. Her father, Chuck Baugh, responded to the rumors in an interview with the Daily Mail. He stressed that his daughter’s connection to the four-time Grammy winner was professional.
Chuck said, “I don’t know anything about it, other than she’s a guitar player for him. It’s more of a musician thing than a dating thing.” However, he also admitted that he has “not heard one way or the other.”
Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman’s 19-year marriage formally came to an end on September 30, when the Big Little Lies actress filed court documents in Nashville citing “irreconcilable differences.” The paperwork identifies that day as the official date of separation and requests that Kidman be the primary residential parent of their teenage daughters.
Moreover, TMZ reported that the agreed-upon custody plan gives Kidman 306 days per year with the children, while Urban will have 59. Meanwhile, both parents will retain joint authority over major decisions.
