Keith Urban has been left \u201cdevastated\u201d as rumours swirl about his ex-wife Nicole Kidman\u2019s new relationship, fuelling the singer\u2019s fears he has been \u201creplaced\u201d as a father to the former couple\u2019s children.<\/p>\n

Nicole is currently on holiday in Italy with their daughters, Sunday, 18, and 15-year-old Faith, after she and Keith finalised their divorce in January this year.<\/p>\n

However, the legendary actress has since been spotted with US businessman Michael Reinstein while relaxing on a beach chair in Portofino, according to New Idea<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Although there is no evidence to suggest Mr Reinstein has met the two girls, Keith has been left \u201cspeechless\u201d by Nicole\u2019s new relationship, according to an insider source.<\/p>\n

\u201cNicole and Keith had a strict verbal agreement to not introduce new partners to the girls until at least 12 months after their divorce,\u201d the source said.<\/p>\n

It is believed Nicole is the girls\u2019 primary residential parent, which entitles her to custody for 306 days per year, and they live with Keith for the remaining 59 days.<\/p>\n

Reports suggest the children\u2019s relationship with their father has been tense since the separation in September 2025, fuelling Keith\u2019s fears he is being \u201creplaced\u201d by Nicole\u2019s new man.<\/p>\n

\u201cUp until now, he still had hopes there might be a chance at a reconciliation (with Nicole),\u201d a second source said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s absolutely devastated and is going through that feeling of deep loss all over again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite Nicole\u2019s rumoured relationship with the multimillionaire Mr Reinstein, it is believed Keith has found a silver lining since the split, according to New Idea<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf anything, it\u2019s now freed him up to reboot his own post-divorce love life without worrying about upsetting anyone,\u201d the source said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s crushed, and the last thing he feels like is getting close to someone new, but he knows his ship with Nic has sailed.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Keith Urban has been left \u201cdevastated\u201d as rumours swirl about his ex-wife Nicole Kidman\u2019s new relationship, fuelling the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":836004,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[64,63,2331,134],"class_list":["post-836003","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-culture","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/836003","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=836003"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/836003\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/836004"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=836003"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=836003"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=836003"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
