Speaking to Rolling Stone magazine, he said: "I was very, very blessed to have Nic call an intervention on me. I had a tight group of friends around me for the intervention. And off I went. I didn't give a s**t about anything except turning a corner in my life and doing whatever it took for that."

Keith, who has daughters Sunday Rose, five, and Faith Margaret, three, with Nicole, credits his wife, 46, for helping him kick his demons for good, and now the pair make sure they speak every day and don't spend long periods apart.

He said: "I have a wife who is just from another planet. She is so celestial. I felt like I was just sitting dormant, and she came along and I came to life. I was born into her, so who I am now was waiting the whole time."

Speculations of trouble marriage were rife when Kidman arrived alone at Cannes for the premiere of ‘Grace of Monaco’ while Urban was in the US where he is a judge on ‘American Idol’.

Keith Urban has addressed rumours about a rift, saying it's "pointless" trying to quash speculation the marriage is on the rocks.
