Keith Urban isn't interested in talking about someone like Nicole Kidman.
Indeed, an uncomfortable interview with the country singer on On Air With Ryan Seacrest about their relationship had resurfaced after the Oscar winner filed for divorce following 19 years of marriage.
After Ryan Seacrest noted that Nicole is "in everything" during the July 22 episode of his radio show, Keith teased, "She's almost as busy as you. Not quite, but very close."
After all, in addition to being AMC's beloved spokesperson, she has starred in several recent projects, including A Family Affair, Babygirl, The Perfect Couple, the upcoming Practical Magic 2, as well as Big Little Lies season three.
As the American Idol host continued to praise Nicole, the "Someone Like You" singer simply nodded along. And when it came to sharing insight into how he and Nicole—parents to daughters Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 14—navigate life as working parents?
"It's a job, yeah," the 57-year-old awkwardly added. "Life is in session."
Though when Ryan gushed about how Keith and Nicole make time for one another during their 20-year relationship, Keith simply replied, "Mhm, yeah."
Nicole—who is also mom to kids Bella, 32, and Connor, 30, with ex-husband Tom Cruise—filed for divorce in Nashville on Sept. 30 with the official date of separation on the same day, according to documents obtained by E! News.
Keith and Nicole, however, both signed and notarized a permanent parenting plan on Aug. 29 and Sept. 6, respectively, as per the docs. The Moulin Rouge! actress, 58, who filed for divorce citing "irreconcilable differences," will have Sunday and Faith live with her 306 days a year and 59 days with their father. (He will have the girls every other weekend.)
As part of the plan, Sunday and Faith will split time between their parents for major holidays, as well as longer vacations. Keith and Nicole—who agreed that neither side will pay child support—are also still committed to fostering a loving environment for their daughters.
"The mother and father will behave with each other and each child so as to provide a loving, stable, consistent and nurturing relationship with the child even though they are divorced,” the filing noted. "They will not speak badly of each other or the members of the family of the other parent. They will encourage each child to continue to love the other parent and be comfortable in both families.”
As Keith and Nicole continue to navigate their latest chapter, keep reading for a breakdown of their divorce timeline.
