Keith Urban ‘did not hang up’ on Aussie radio hosts over Nicole Kidman question

Fans kept their eyes wide shut after Keith Urban’s uncomfortable radio appearance Tuesday morning.

Turns out, the 57-year-old country singer was not the one who ended the call during Mix 102.3’s “Hayley & Max in the Morning” show, following a personal question about his wife, Nicole Kidman.

A source told People that “Keith did not hang up, period.”

“He doesn’t host his Zoom interviews. This is a complete nothingburger,” they added.

The insider noted that Urban is “very easygoing” and did not have an issue with the question at hand.

The conversation initially appeared to be going smoothly, with Urban expressing enthusiasm about his upcoming performance at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre on August 28 and mentioning the positive energy among the audience.

Things then took a turn after hosts Hayley Pearson and Max Burford asked the Grammy winner to play the radio show’s “Wall of Truth” game.

The turning point came when Burford asked, “What are Keith Urban’s thoughts when he watches his stunning wife share romantic moments with equally stunning younger actors like Zac Efron on screen and radio?”

“What just happened here?” he then asked as a producer said, “He’s disconnected from Zoom.”

“I think his team hung up on us because they didn’t want us to ask that question,” the producer continued. “He’s gone, see you Keith.”

Pearson, meanwhile, was worried they had “upset” Urban, noting she had a feeling “that would happen.”

“Does Keith Urban hate us? Do we have beef with Keith Urban now?” Burford said before asking his co-host, “If you knew this was going to happen, Hayley, why didn’t you stop me asking the question?”

Kidman, 58, and Efron, 37, starred as love interests in Netflix’s 2024 rom-com “A Family Affair.” The actress played a widowed writer who starts dating a selfish actor (Efron).

Reflecting on their intimate scenes, the “Big Little Lies” alum explained last year that it was easier because she and the “High School Musical” star had already worked together in the 2012 thriller “The Paperboy.”

“It’s really helpful when you’re doing this sort of work together that you’ve already got a history together, because it’s easy,” Kidman told People. “You’re not working to create a history. So I’m not like, ‘Can I touch you?’ I feel incredibly trusting of Zac.”

Nicole also starred as a CEO who has a love affair with her young intern, played by Harris Dickinson, 29, in the 2024 film “Babygirl.”

Meanwhile, it’s no secret that Urban is not a fan of discussing his relationship with Kidman, whom he married in 2006, while promoting his work.

Urban, who shares daughters Sunday, 16, and Faith, 14, with the actress, was on the “Jam Nation with Jonesy & Amanda” podcast last September, when host Amanda Keller asked about their relationship.

She inquired if Urban thought his and Kidman’s love story would have still happened if they had never met at G’day Australia, to which he quickly corrected her that it was “G’day LA.”

“No, I think it would,” Urban answered, with Keller pushing, “Yeah? Are you a believer in fate or do you think it’s two Australians, it would have happened?”

“No idea,” Urban responded before stating, “Anyway, moving on.”

In December, Kidman gushed over how the singer still keeps the romance alive all these years later.

“I like being asked out, which he still does,” she told People. “Seven nights ago, we went to dinner in New York. We love Japanese food, but I’m open [to everything]. I like not knowing where he’s going to take me. Surprise me, baby!”
