"Four months into a marriage, I'm in rehab for three months. I had no idea what was going to happen to us … and if you want to see what love in action really looks like, give that a whirl," he continued. "Nic pushed through every negative voice, I'm sure even some of her own and she chose love. And here we are tonight, 18 years later."

Urban and Kidman share two daughters, Sunday and Faith. Kidman also has two children with ex-husband Tom Cruise; Isabella and Connor.
