Fans express concern after Keith Urban skips family getaway with wife Nicole Kidman - as the real reason why they've been apart for weeks is revealed
The 57-year-old singer failed to appear in sweet holiday snaps posted by Nicole, 58, to Instagram on Wednesday.
Many fans have flocked to Instagram to question Keith's whereabouts after noticing he was missing from the images.
'Where's Keith? Guess the rumors are true,' one asked while another questioned: 'Where is he?'
But Keith has been unable to holiday with his family as he is currently on tour.
The country singer is currently performing shows around Australia and is set to take the stage in Wollongong on Wednesday night before heading to Sydney.
In the photos, Nicole gave fans a rare look at her natural locks as she posed with her daughters and sister Antonia Kidman.
The actress, 58, revealed her curly auburn locks in one picture as she embraced her daughter Sunday Rose.
She was all smiles as she showed off her natural beauty in a second image while posing with her sister Antonia.
She also flaunted her slim figure in a patterned blue crop top and a matching coloured skirt.
It was a far cry from the dramatically straightened look Nicole unveiled at the Cannes Film Festival Presidential Dinner in May.
The Moulin Rouge! star wore the weave to add volume to her strawberry blonde locks and help give her a more youthful look.
However, the mesh wig cap was visible as Nicole posed for photos on the red carpet despite her real hair being weaved into it.
She also unveiled another radical makeover at the Met Gala as she stepped out with a cropped, slicked-back cut and wavy fringe.
Nicole's habit of wearing wigs in Hollywood movies and on the red carpet has earned her a cult following over the years.
The Hollywood star has rarely showcased her natural hair in films and on the red carpet since the early days of her career, and almost always wears wigs for her roles.
Over the past few months, Nicole has stepped out in a series of dramatic wigged looks – ranging from sleek, straight styles to blunt cuts, and one that became a viral misfire.
Appearing on Sunrise in May, Nicole admitted that she 'loves changing her hair' and uses hairpieces to achieve new looks.

Revealed: How AFL team will use Snoop Dogg as a defence as they try to get their star off the hook for using a shocking anti-gay slur during a match
The Adelaide Football Club is trying to reduce a proposed five-game suspension that is set to be handed to their player Izak Rankine by arguing that the AFL has committed a double standard in booking US rapper Snoop Dogg to perform at this year's Grand Final. Rankine is currently the subject of an investigation after he was accused of making a homophobic slur, allegedly calling an unnamed opponent a 'f****t', during the Crows' three-point victory against Collingwood on Saturday. Talks between the AFL and the Crows regarding the slur have stretched into the fourth day and it is now expected that a decision on his sanction will be announced at some point on Thursday. It is understood that the Crows have been given more time by the AFL to respond to the league for the proposed five-game penalty, which was unveiled by former Collingwood president Eddie McGuire on Tuesday. 'The AFL advises that the Adelaide Crows have requested additional time to respond to the AFL's proposed determinations regarding an alleged incident with player Izak Rankine,' AFL general manager of corporate affairs Jay Allen said in a statement. 'The AFL has granted this request and will provide an update on the matter tomorrow.' The Crows will deploy several arguments in their bid to reduce the severity of the sanction that Rankine will receive. One of those submissions references how the AFL has employed Snoop Dogg for their Grand Final entertainment. The US rapper has a 1998 hit called 'Doggz Gonna Get Ya' which uses the same slur, 'f****t', that Rankine is being investigated for. Snoop Dogg had also published a now-deleted image on Instagram in 2014 that showed two men together, with the rapper adding the caption: 'Go suck ya man n get off my line f.A.G'. However, the US rapper, known also as Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jnr, has stated that he is not homophobic, adding that he has friends who are gay. 'I don't have a problem with gay people. I got some gay homies,' he said in an interview with The Guardian back in 2013. Other footy commentators have called the AFL out on its decision to book the US rapper, considering the league's current stance on promoting a diverse and inclusive culture within the sport. AFL CEO Andrew Dillon published an LGBTQI+ Action Plan earlier this year in which the footy chief wrote: 'I want to be clear: there is absolutely no place for homophobia, biphobia, or transphobia – or any form of discrimination for that matter - in our game, workplace, or society.' The league has taken a strong stance against homophobia in the past two seasons by handing out heavy suspensions to multiple players. West Coast's Jack Graham was suspended last month for four games for making a 'highly offensive' homophobic slur towards a GWS Giants player. Sydney youngster Riak Andrew was suspended for five matches for a homophobic slur made in a VFL match. The Crows are set to put multiple arguments to the AFL. They will also claim that Rankine's remorse over the matter should be taken into consideration when assessing whether there should be a reduction in his suspension Several other players were suspended last year, with Suns player, Will Powell, receiving a five-match ban and Jeremy Finlayson, of Port Adelaide, being handed a three-match ban. The Crows, meanwhile, are on the cusp of playing in finals this year, with the premiership hopefuls looking to break their 27-year wait for a flag. However, it is looking likely they will be without small forward Rankine for the postseason fixtures. The 25-year-old has been a crucial cog in Matthew Nicks' side's surge to the top of the AFL ladder, booting 31 goals this season while also averaging 20 disposals a game, an above-average figure for the league this season. The Crows will to also argue arguing that Rankine has shown remorse by choosing to phone the Magpies player he allegedly made the slur to on Sunday morning to apologise. It comes as Tex Walker revealed this week that he had called his team-mate to check in on him and revealed that the contrite forward will 'accept whatever comes his way.' 'He's very remorseful and he understands that he's made a mistake and he'll accept whatever comes his way,' Walker told Triple M. 'He hasn't been outside. He had a full day of investigation with the AFL yesterday. 'We will support Ranks, however, we don't agree with what happened.' The Crows will also submit that Rankine was provoked by an incident with Dan Houston, in which the two players engaged in a heated war of words on the pitch. It came after Houston had knocked Rankine out during the Showdown clash and copped a five-week ban for the collision. The details of their conversation have not been revealed but it is understood that Houston had made reference to Rankine being carried off the field last year. Adelaide will face North Melbourne in their final regular-season match of the 2025 campaign. They are also arguing that suspensions for finals matches should be given greater weight than regular-season games. Collingwood boss Craig McRae revealed that he has checked in on the player subjected to the alleged homophobic slur. 'Yeah, I think so,' he said, when asked if the Collingwood player was OK. 'We had a good chat over the weekend and then again Monday morning just to check in, it's about making sure our players are safe,' McRae told reporters on Wednesday. 'But I don't want to demonise Izak either. 'Everyone is allowed to make mistakes, and the young lad seems like a really respectful young man and he's made an error.

Betty Grumble's Enemies of Grooviness Eat Sh!t review – nude, lewd and confused
This experimental act from Australia knows how to create merry anarchy with incantatory rituals and boundary-free explicitness. Performance artist Emma Maye Gibson, otherwise known as Betty Grumble, warns us about the nudity but this might not prepare some for what comes. A gigantic 'pussy print' hangs behind her on the wall and at one madcap moment she begins making imprint smudges of her own vagina on paper to hand out. A (hopefully fake) turd on a plate is eaten with knife and fork. There is a frenzy of naked skids across the floor and a performance of masturbation that feels oddly earnest. None of it is especially shocking or dangerous, perhaps because it comes in the spirit of fun, and accompanied by synth pop beats from 'hot assistant' Chris Slist (Megana Holiday). Gibson has abundant warmth and easiness but the show is slow to get going in terms of pace and focus. Her alter ego remains an assemblage of outre wig and mask, rather than a fully assumed identity, so feels slightly redundant. The central problem, though, is the lack of story and context. Gibson introduces the show by speaking of her grief for the Palestinian-Lebanese poet and activist Candy Royalle, who died in 2018. She also mentions her experience of domestic violence. The riotous lewdness that follows seems like a ritualistic assertion of joy in the face of those things. Yet the grief and abuse stay unknown. There is one very potent scene using music and repeated phrases to summon the dark spirit of a courtroom. It carries great dramatic intensity and you wish for more of this. Even if the show is fragmentary, non-narrative and experimental, it seems too unpinned and lands as an explicit variety act, which may be the desired effect for an artist who defines herself as a sex clown. Serotonin is briefly mentioned; so are revenge and justice. There are bird sounds and disco beats. It all feels random, helter-skelter. But it also embodies the bare-bodied life, soul and spirit of a bacchanal, albeit a strangely safe one. At Assembly Roxy, Edinburgh, until 24 August All our Edinburgh festival reviews

I'm A Celeb star ‘depressed and infuriated' after he's banned from driving by DVLA at 76 years old
AN I'm A Celebrity star has revealed he has been left "infuriated" after being banned from driving at the age of 76. Christopher Biggins, who appeared on the ITV reality show in 2009, has hit out at the DVLA for revoking his license. 3 3 The actor and panto star was informed earlier this year that his driving licence had expired and as such would need an eye test in order to get it back. The Daily Mail reports how Biggins went to an optician in Stratford, East London for his eye examination but soon discovered that he had failed and as such had been banned from driving with immediate effect due to no longer having a valid licence. Confirming the situation, Biggins said: "Ten days later [after the eye test], I got a letter from the DVLA saying I had failed my test and I wouldn't be getting my license back." Furious at the decision, Biggins decided to book himself in for further eye tests. This included a visit to a doctor at Homerton Hospital who informed him he had a clean bill of health as well as a second visit at a seperate opticions. Both practitioners provided Biggins with letters to support their findings which he sent off to the DVLA - but the driving association refused to give the TV star his licence back and argued that what he had provided "does not show that you are able to meet the required medical standards for driving". With Biggins maintaining that his eye sight has never changed, he has blasted the DVLA and said their decision has left him "depressed" and out-of-pocket after having to stump up regularly for taxis. He told the Mail: "How can they disregard a hospital doctor and another optician? It has left me very depressed. "I travel a lot and I need to drive. Not long distance, for that I take the train. "It is costing me a fortune in taxis. It is very unfair. I'm absolutely infuriated with their 'computer says no' attitude." EXCL I was paid £50,000 to do I'm A Celeb - what ITV is giving stars now is ludicrous, says Christopher Biggins It comes after the Labour government revealed their plans for drivers over the age of 70 to undergo mandatory eye tests every three years in order to prove they have sufficient eyesight to be on the roads. Further driving proposals also include reducing the drink-drive limit and tougher penalties on uninsured drivers and those who fail to wear a seatbelt. They will belong to a new road safety strategy that the government plans to publish this autumn. The change would mark the biggest shake-up of driving rules for nearly two decades, since the Road Safety Act introduced under Tony Blair in 2006. In response, a spokesperson for the DVLA told the Mail of Biggins' case: "While we cannot comment on individual cases, all drivers must meet minimum eyesight standards to drive a vehicle. "Whether a driver meets the eyesight standards can be tested through various means, including visual field and acuity, depending on the circumstances. "These standards apply to all drivers and, if someone does not meet the required standards they cannot be allowed on the road."
