KEITH URBAN PRAISES NICOLE KIDMAN

Keith Urban has praised wife, Nicole Kidman, and his fans for their support during his recent stint in rehab.The troubled country star posted a video on his website explaining his struggle with alcoholism and praising Kidman for her role in his recovery.Urban said: "My wife stayed extraordinarily strong and loving, my friends and family were there, and man, it's been really overwhelming."Speaking just days after checking out of the Betty Ford clinic in California, Urban said there was "no cataclysmic event" that led to him entering rehab. He insisted: "It was a lot of small things that were happening in my life,and a lot of small moments that were starting to accumulate that were telling me very loud and clear that I was a long way from my program of recovery, and they were making my life unmanageable."Urban, who admitted his battle with alcohol just months after marrying Kidman last year, is now feeling more positive. He said: "It feels really good to have gone through it and be where I am now."The singer's already made one post-rehab public appearance, on a German TV show. Urban sang new song 'Once in a Lifetime' which he said was inspired by his relationship with Kidman: "It's a good, life-changing happening in my life."I think when you find your once-in-a-lifetime love, that's what everybody's looking for."
