Boy in This Pic Grew up in Alcoholic’s Home, Yet Became Country Star: At 55 He Raises Kids with Hollywood Beauty

A famous country star who is now incredibly successful grew up living a difficult life during childhood. Though he was well-mannered and behaved as a young boy, having gotten into no trouble, fights, or run-ins with the law, this talented musician endured somewhat of a traumatic upbringing as a kid.

 

While sitting down for an in-depth interview about his life and career a few years back, the artist revealed that his parents’ tendency to relocate frequently spearheaded the onset of his trauma. The continued uprooting around as a child hindered the musician’s ability to have a sense of intimate security regarding family life.
In fact, in the same interview, he states that if he could go back and change one thing about how his parents raised him, it would be to live in a house filled with intimacy. When asked to elaborate on what he meant when saying this, the singer disclosed:
“My dad was an alcoholic, and I grew up in an alcoholic’s house. No intimacy.”

 

After revealing that fact, the interviewer asked whether that meant his father would ever get physically violent with him. The country music star clarified that he remembers his dad being a physical disciplinarian and recollected:
“I don’t recall him ever telling me he loved me as a kid. I’d do a gig I thought was fantastic, and the only thing he’d say is, ‘When you speak onstage, you’ve got to slow down.’ He never commented on anything else.”
He continued to assert that as his dad aged, he forgot about the way he disciplined him. However, the musician believes that he genuinely could not recollect what happened in the past.

Keith Urban, Who Grew up in an Alcoholic’s House, Is Now a Loving and Devoted Husband and Father
The little boy who grew up with an alcoholic dad is none other than iconic country star Keith Urban, 55. Outside of his incredible skill as a vocalist and entertainer, Urban is also the loving husband to Hollywood legend Nicole Kidman, 56.
The pair got acquainted at a Los Angeles event hosted to honor Australians in America in 2005. Following their wedding, Kidman and Urban decided to move to live on a farm during their marriage’s first year.
Being careful not to follow the same pattern as his father, Urban is an attentive and doting dad who raises his girls on one of their beautiful family ranches in Nashville.


Kidman and the New Zealand-born artist have been married for 17 years, having just celebrated their anniversary in June. The lovebirds are also parents to two daughters, Sunday and Faith Kidman-Urban, and their doting dad loves being their parent.
While speaking about his daughters in a past interview, Urban gushed about his love for them and how incredible he feels being a dad. He was especially excited to become a girl-dad, as he had no sisters growing. He has enjoyed the learning curve that comes with parenting young girls.
Continuing to speak about his beloved children, Urban divulged how they inspire everything he does. Though they are proud to boast about and express their love for them, Kidman and her husband prefer to keep Sunday and Faith away from the limelight.


Urban stated that they do their best to give them a normal life: doing family activities, staying off social media, and refraining from reading tabloids. Now looking back on the moves his parents made, which included a big relocation to Australia when he was two, Urban said:
“They were keeping it together really well, considering… starting a completely brand new life in a foreign country, which Australia was to them… They didn’t have any money… I’m just really impressed at what they were able to accomplish, the two of them.”
Urban has come a long way since childhood and has been blessed with an amazingly fruitful life with his loving wife, Kidman, and beloved daughters.
Being careful not to follow the same pattern as his father, Urban is an attentive and doting dad who raises his girls on one of their beautiful family ranches in Nashville.
