Urban takes a rehab break

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have reunited in the actress’ hometown of Sydney, Australia, after the Australian-reared country singer took a break from his treatment for alcohol abuse.

Urban, 39, checked himself into a rehabilitation treatment center in the United States in October, with his new wife, Kidman, by his side. On Tuesday, he flew into Sydney, where Kidman has been since before Christmas.

“Keith is on a leave in Australia to be with his family during the holidays,” said the singer’s New York-based publicist, Paul Freundlich. “This is a natural occurrence at this point in his treatment. He will continue with his rehab upon his return.”
