Nicole Kidman fears her country music star husband Keith Urban could suffer a drug relapse sparked by his recent back injury.
Urban, who most recently sought treatment for alcohol abuse in 2007, has a painful slipped disc, but he’s still touring and has postponed surgery.
A source tells America’s National Enquirer magazine, “At some point Keith is likely going to need pain meds, and Nicole’s worried that with his addictive personality, all the progress he’s made over the past year will slip away.”
Keith, 40, first entered rehab to battle addictions to cocaine and alcohol in 1998. He relapsed two years later, and again in 2006 and went into rehab for a second time – just four months after their marriage.
“Everything is going so well. Nicole and Keith have the baby of their dreams. They love their new life together, and Keith has been sober for more than a year and a half,” the friend added. “With Keith’s diagnosis coming in the middle of his tour and Nicole staying in Australia with the baby, it’s no wonder she’s concerned.”
