Urban, Kidman Expecting Baby

Put the rumors to rest. Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman are indeed expecting a baby. The country star and Oscar-winning actress are "thrilled," according to Kidman's publicist, who announced the happy news on Monday.

Speculation about the couple's pregnancy has been swirling for weeks, fueled by Kidman's recent withdrawal from filming the upcoming World War II drama, 'The Reader.' The two are currently in Sydney, where Urban is taking a short break from touring and Kidman has just wrapped up filming the epic film, 'Australia.' Urban will return to the U.S. later this month for a joint tour with Carrie Underwood.

Spotted by shutterbugs at a Sydney restaurant Monday night, Kidman told paparazzi she's "very excited" about the baby. And when asked the sex, she simply replied, "Secret."

This is first child for Urban, while Kidman has two adopted children with ex-husband, Tom Cruise. The new parents-to-be were married in June 2006.
