Keith Urban, the acclaimed country star, is grieving the loss of his father, Robert Urban, who passed away on Saturday night after a courageous battle with canc3r.
“I have been deeply touched by the overwhelming love and support that Nic and I, along with our family, have received since my Dad’s passing,” Keith shared.
Recently, Keith Urban revealed that his father had entered hospice care. While unveiling his exhibit at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, the singer shared the ongoing battle his father was facing.
He shared to The Tennessean, “He only has a few weeks, if that. I’ve been dealing with this in the past couple of days. It’s a strange time because it’s typical of a career filled with extreme highs and lows, often happening simultaneously. So [the exhibit] is bittersweet because my dad is the reason behind all of this. My dad is the reason why I live in America.”
Last year, Keith Urban’s wife, Nicole Kidman, experienced the loss of her father. It’s so terrible!
During this difficult period, our deepest condolences and thoughts go out to Keith Urban and his family.
