Keith Urban has revealed the heartbreaking news that his father, Robert Urban, is in hospice care and does not have much time left.
The American Idol judge spoke to The Tennessean about his father’s ailing health and how long he may to live while at his new Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum exhibit.
“He’s probably only got a few weeks, if that,” Urban said. “I’ve just been dealing with that the last couple of days. This has all come at a very strange time where it’s typical of a career that has extreme highs and extreme lows all often at the exact same time. So (the exhibit) is bittersweet a little bit because (my dad) is the catalyst for all of this. My dad is the catalyst for me living in America.”
The Australian singer went on to share more stories about how important his father has been in his musical career and admitted that he even used to sew all his stage outfits.
