Keith Urban Rehab Continues
For Keith Urban, rehab continues despite published reports in Us
online magazine of his release. Country singer Urban, who married
actress Nicole Kidman last June, checked into rehab for alcohol
abuse in October.
| The premature report
of Keith Urban's release from rehab was due to the country singer
being spotted having lunch with Kidman at the Beverly Hills
Hotel's Polo Lounge on December 3. According to Urban's publicist,
patients at the Betty Ford Clinic in Palm Springs, California,
where Urban is residing, are allowed short visits during this
stage of recovery.
Urban has a long history of battling addictions to both alcohol
and drugs. In the 1990's Urban was struggling with an addiction
to cocaine and in 1998, he checked himself into the Cumberland
Heights rehab clinic in Nashville, Tennessee.

Urban's newest album, Love, Pain & the Whole Crazy Thing
was released on November 7, just weeks after the country singer
had entered rehab. Though he is unable to market and promote his
album while in rehab, Keith Urban's last album, Be There
has sold four million copies and many expect his latest release
to produce similar figures.
