91. I think it is interesting that he was sober for 8 years until now. He has only been married for a short time. Perhaps the constant scrutiny of the media all the time was a contributing factor. He wasn't hounded by the press so closely until he hooked up with Nicole. Mayble he has slipped in the past but he didn't have Nicole looking over his shoulder. I wish him the best!

92. I totally agree with Laurie#89 : can't stand Nicole! after all I prefer Tom : he's a bit crazy but at least is a good guy...I think that the Nic- keith is a bad match: NOTHING IN COMMON!!!!!!!

93. People shouldn't go in on him for admitting he has a problem.. I'd like to see people admit their flaws publically. I highly doubt that anyone could do it with some degree of candor yet being honest at the same time.

94. I read a blurb in People mag (the one out before this news broke) where Nicole was saying she didn't think being sexually faithful mattered but being "emotionally unfaithful" was another story.

What the hell? No wonder the guy got boozed up and started screwing around again.

Sorry but she asks for this kind of drama in her life with her choices.

96. #6 You have got to be kidding did you forget in those 25 years of watching how nascar got started, you know a thing called prohibition and the supply of moonshine or should I say the Illegal supply of shine
At any rate I am someone who went through rehab 24 years ago and it is not easy, especially in his chosen field. The music industry is a very hard place to try and stay clean, the bottom line is if he wants it bad enough he can get there....Good Luck Keith !!!!!!

97. concerning "by I'm just saying's" attitude. You have some serious problems. Sounds like you could use a little help yourself. Those who have not sinned cast the first stone. Famous, infamous, ordinary, poor, or rich, we are all just people living our lives and we should lift each other up not judge and tear each other down. You have problems you need to look at your choices(attitude is a choice) not spend time judging others. I wish Nicole and Keith God's grace and strength to get through this. Donna

98. No. 11 These scubbags never surprise me. Whic one are you referring to?
Holier than thou, I totally agree with that.
She had to know about him alcohol and a drug addict for years before she ever met him Another 6 weeks, we will hear their marriage is over.

99. Nicole must either be nuts for "bad boys", a total bitch or on the road to becoming Whitney Houston. She cannot be as stupid as her decision making....or maybe she is. Gawd, I hope not for then another woman I respected goes down in flames just because she's feels a man is mandatory to happiness. Geez...get a dog!

100. I have a nurse friend who works over at Cumberland Heights the rehab facility where Urban is. She said the real reason that he entered rehab is that he was caught cheating with another woman by Nicole. He wasn't even drunk at the time but Nicole knew that eventually the story would get out or that the woman would spill the beans so she told Keith he better say he was drunk and go into rehab. She demanded this so she wouldn't look like a fool when it came out that Urban was cheating on her after they just got married. This way it could be blamed on the alcohol. Otherwise people would be wondering if Nicole was poor in the sack that he'd be cheating so soon but when the story comes out people will say oh it was the alcohol that made him act without thinking. Nicole actually wanted Keith to orignally say he was on drugs because they alter ones perception way more than alcohol but he refused to claim substance abuse because he could lose his record deal over that. Alcohol isn't a big deal but drugs are and his fans and his label would be way more forgiving of drink than drugs. Personally I wonder if Nicole is a dud in the sack because my nurse friend said Keith is already chatting up some cuties at the facility, fellow patients and nurses alike.

102. To all you people who are so quick to judge, Keith has had this alcohol problem for years now. That's old news...his albums are full of songs about his adiction. Nicole knew what she was getting herself into. Actually, they are a very lovely couple. I live a few blocks away from them and run into them occasionaly at spas, starbucks etc. As for Nicole's children, they actually come to Nashville to visit. Just because she doesn't like being photographed with them doesn't mean she isn't a good mother. Actually, she told the clerk at Wild Oats she cooks for them. Keith probably had one drink and flipped since he's been sober for many years now. People need to stay out of their business and let them be which is exactly why they live in Nashville so the public don't spectualte about every aspect of their marriage.

103. Let's just give the guy a break and wish him well. It's easy for us to sit here and snipe, hiding behind our keyboards. Addiction, of any kind, is an illness that needs to be treated.

104. Nicole loves Keith she will stick by his side during this hard time. He loves her and this is why he went public and is seeking treatment. Addiction is something, once you've had it never goes away. It's something you have to fight the rest of your life to beat it. Best wished Nicole and Keith, may God Bless you.
