The country music world was rocked when Nicole Kidman filed for divorce from Keith Urban on September 30, ending their 19-year marriage. The news came in the midst of Keith’s High and Alive world tour, leaving fans reeling — and speculation quickly followed.
Just a day after the filing, a viral video featuring Keith and his young guitarist Maggie Baugh ignited even more controversy. The clip, shared by Maggie herself, showed the two performing Keith’s hit “The Fighter” — a song originally written as a love letter to Nicole.
However, what caught everyone’s attention was a lyric change. Instead of singing “When they’re tryna get to you, baby, I’ll be the fighter,” Keith swapped “baby” for “Maggie”, saying, “Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player.” Maggie captioned the moment, “Did Keith Urban just say that?” — and within hours, fans flooded the comments with outrage.
“Breakups happen, but have some respect,” one commenter wrote. Another added, “He took a song he wrote for his wife and changed it for another woman.” A third simply stated, “Nicole deserves better.”
