Keith Urban stepped back into the spotlight just days after the curtain dropped on his 19-year marriage to Nicole Kidman.

In his first concert since Kidman filed for divorce, the country superstar took the stage in Hershey, Pennsylvania, on Oct. 2 with a show full of surprises – one being the absence of Maggie Baugh, a guitarist for Urban who has been thrust into the narrative of his split from Kidman.

Us Weekly shared the news of Baugh's absence. It's unclear if Baugh was scheduled to perform with Urban during the performance in Pennsylvania. 

MAGGIE BAUGH: WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT KEITH URBAN'S GUITAR PLAYER

Fox News Digital has reached out to Baugh for comment. 

The guitarist has recently been in the spotlight after a video began circulating that shows Urban changing a lyric in his song "The Fighter," originally written for Kidman, to name Baugh during a September concert.

KEITH URBAN CHANGES NICOLE KIDMAN-INSPIRED LYRIC TO NAME HIS GUITARIST MAGGIE BEFORE DIVORCE ANNOUNCEMENT

"When they’re tryna get to you, Maggie, I’ll be your guitar player," Urban sang onstage, replacing the original line, "When they’re tryna get to you, baby, I’ll be the fighter."

It has been noted that Urban often changes these particular lyrics. "The Fighter" was originally recorded as a duet with Carrie Underwood, and when the two performed the song at the 2017 CMT Music Awards, he sang her name instead of "baby."

At the Oct. 2 show, Us Weekly reported that Urban dropped the song altogether.

One notable moment in the country singer's performance came when Urban strummed through his 2024 track, "Heart Like a Hometown." During that performance a slideshow of photos appeared, and despite the divorce news, a photo of Kidman and their two children was featured.

The slideshow followed a personal story Urban shared onstage about his parents letting him drop out of school to chase a dream, according to People.

KEITH URBAN SEEN FOR FIRST TIME SINCE NICOLE KIDMAN DIVORCE FILING

As Urban stepped onstage without his wedding ring, the country star was said to be in surprisingly good spirits, even grabbing a fan’s phone mid-song to FaceTime their friend during his performance of "Kiss a Girl." 

The mood shifted during a fiery performance of the breakup anthem "You’ll Think of Me," when Urban didn’t just sing the usual line, "Take your space and take your reasons." Instead, he slammed it with a blunt new twist, "Your bulls--- reasons," according to Us Weekly.

On Sept. 30, Kidman filed for divorce from Urban, ending 19 years of marriage. She cited "irreconcilable differences" and ongoing "marital difficulties," according to court documents obtained by Fox News Digital.

Kidman listed Sept. 30 as the couple’s date of separation.

In the filing, the "Big Little Lies" star asked to be named the primary residential parent of the couple’s two daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret.

FIRST ON FOX: A Senate Republican has a list of more than a "trillion dollars worth of ideas ripe for a trim" as the federal government shutdown continues. 

Office of Management and Budget Director Russ Vought has so far announced his plans to withhold nearly $30 billion in federal funding to blue states and cities, while Senate Democrats continue to block Republicans' efforts to reopen the government.

And Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, has some ideas for even deeper cuts. In a letter to Vought, first obtained by Fox News Digital, Ernst laid out a plan that could result in over $2 trillion in cuts to federal spending.

HERE'S WHAT TRUMP WANTS TO DO TO RESHAPE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DURING THE SHUTDOWN

Her letter comes as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and most Senate Democrats have remained steadfast in their opposition to the GOP’s short-term funding extension.

"Schumer’s Shutdown has provided a golden opportunity to slash waste, fraud and abuse in Washington," Ernst said in a statement to Fox News Digital. "There is no one more fitting to lead the charge than Russ Vought."

"I have compiled a comprehensive list of more than $2 trillion of nonessential government expenditures that should be put on the chopping block to put taxpayers first, make Washington squeal and deliver a more efficient government," she continued.

Ernst, who chairs the Senate DOGE Caucus, which borrowed its moniker from tech billionaire Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), wants to target tens of billions in expired and unexpired COVID-19 pandemic funding, consolidate unused federal office space and prevent taxpayers from "subsidizing" the roughly $400 million per day in backpay owed to furloughed nonessential federal workers.

She also wants to go after nearly $1.6 trillion in unspent funding "stashed away in secret slush funds," clawback billions in the Biden-era electric vehicle charging station program, railroad projects in blue states, end research into "silly science projects" like shrimp on treadmills, and streamline "duplication and unnecessary overlap within" the Department of War, among many others.

GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN ENTERS 3RD DAY AS SENATE STALEMATE OVER OBAMACARE SUBSIDIES DRAGS ON

"This is by no means an exhaustive list, and I will be providing many more recommendations soon," Ernst wrote in the letter. "My team and I stand ready to help you make some prime cuts during this Schumer Shutdown."

Meanwhile, there appeared to be no off-ramp in sight to end the now three-day government shutdown.

Senate Democrats are also unfazed by Vought and President Donald Trump’s desire to target their states and cities with cuts, with many arguing that the administration was already carrying out those tactics.

Still, Senate Republicans hope that enough Democrats peel off and vote to reopen the government. So far, three members of the Democratic caucus have done so — Sens. John Fetterman, D-Pa., Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., and Angus King, I-Maine.
