Keith Urban Facing Another Breakup Weeks After Finalizing His Divorce

The odds of a long-term relationship seem to be against Keith Urban.

The country singer, who recently ended his marriage after almost two decades, has now parted ways with another important person in their life. He is moving on from another person who has been an integral part of his life and career within a short time frame.

Keith Urban and his wife, Nicole Kidman, finalized their divorce amicably last month. They notably played their parts to make the process end sooner than later, waving spousal and child support as well as coming to an agreement on custody for their two daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith.

Keith Urban Says Goodbye To Another Long-Term Relationship

Urban is on a streak of his relationships coming to an end, but this time it is purely business. The country singer has pulled the plug on his dealings with his management team, including longtime manager Gary Borman. 

Urban and Borman have worked together for twenty-five years in the fifty years the manager's company has been up and running. Borman recently announced that he would be retiring and shutting his company, also marking the end of his working relationship with the artist. 

The manager has also worked with other industry stars such as James Taylor, Faith Hill, and The Bee Gees. He specifically told Page Six that he and Urban "shared a journey not unlike brothers" and that he will "always remain a fan," keeping the wonderful memories they have together. 

This professional breakup comes a month after his divorce was finalized and amid rumors that the singer has found love in the arms of his fellow country singer, Karley Scott Collins, who debunked the rumors, calling them "absolutely ridiculous and untrue."

Inside The Country Singer's Parting Words

Urban started off expressing gratitude to his longtime manager for everything they achieved during their time together. "I'm so grateful to Gary and my entire Borman Nashville family for the most incredible and successful time together," he began. 

The artist described the almost three decades he worked with Borman as extraordinary, adding that one thing he will forever be grateful for is the creative and collaborative spirit they were all a part of for years.

Urban ended his statement by sending well wishes, even though they are going onto different paths, and an indication that the split was not in ill faith. "I wish Gary and everyone at Borman Entertainment the very best journey ahead and look forward to what the future holds for all of us," he concluded. 

The singer's dilemma has got lips moving in Nashville, especially with the sudden nature of the split, with Urban currently touring his latest album, "High and Alive."

The 'Blue Ain't Your Color' Singer Is Not One For Public Attention On Personal Matters

Urban had his divorce from Kidman finalized quietly, with very little information disseminated to the media. The former couple made no public statements addressing the situation while they reached agreements on their property, lawyer costs, and children, among others.

The Blast reported that the pair honored their decision to move on privately and deliberately with little to no fanfare and public attention. 

Court documents revealed that the stars agreed to waive any claims to spousal support or child support, also cover their own legal fees and related expenses, and cooperate to cut off the drama surrounding divorce processes. 

To avoid disputes over the two children they share, the former lovebirds came to an agreement highly considering stability for Sunday and Faith with schooling and daily routines. 

The documents also revealed that both parties declined to engage in formal discovery, completely ridding out a process that can most times ignite contentious and invasive feelings and actions. 

The Bone Of Contention During His Divorce Process 

While everything appeared to go smoothly and amicably during Urban and Kidman's split, there was an aspect that shook the grounds. As reported by The Blast, the ex-lovers saw eye to eye on everything except the custody of their kids.

The stars were faced with a personal battle over the terms of the custody, and neither wanted to compromise initially. Kidman was insisting that they both get equal time with the children, and this reportedly caught Kidman off guard.

A source close to the actress revealed that she was anxious at his request, fearing he would not budge as she knew how "stubborn Keith can be." The situation peeled back old wounds for her from her previous custody battle with her ex, Tom Cruise.

Then, she and Cruise were granted joint custody of the kids, who ultimately decided to live with their father, so Kidman feared history might repeat itself. 

They finally agreed that Kidman will spend 306 days per year with the children, while Urban will have them for 59 days, described as "every other weekend."

The Divorce Reportedly Had A Jarring Effect On Keith Urban 

Shortly after the news that Urban and Kidman's 19-year marriage was coming to an end, fans noticed changes in the country singer's visage. He looked very exhausted when he was sighted in Los Angeles while the divorce was still in the works.

As shared by The Blast, insiders claimed that Urban was questioning if he made a mistake in his decision, and the financial strain was a source of added stress on him. He reportedly started taking more high-paying gigs to meet the financial pressure. 

Every day's activity and adjusting to his new normal without Kidman was not easy,y as the Hollywood star was not only his wife but also his best friend.

"Their first Thanksgiving apart reportedly hit him hard. "He's exhausted, isolated, and looking at a future he never imagined. He's also lost his best friend, Nicole, who was his greatest supporter in life. He's wondering if he's made a huge mistake," the insider shared.
