He was the man of the moment on Wednesday night as he hosted the 2018 ARIA Awards in Sydney.

But as soon as Keith Urban got on stage, the musician shone the spotlight on his beautiful Hollywood star wife, Nicole Kidman.

Less than 30 seconds after opening his first speech at Australian music’s night of nights, the 51-year-old gave Nicole a big shoutout.

“Hi baby, right in the front row,” a cheerful Keith said, gesturing towards his 51-year-old wife.

It seems Nicole truly stole the show in many ways throughout that night.

When British singer Rita Ora appeared on stage, she immediately took a moment to gush over the Big Little Lies actress.

“How gorgeous is your wife?” she said to Keith. “How gorgeous are you two together?”

Red carpet PDA

Earlier in the night, Nicole and Keith posed for some cosy photos holding hands and wrapping their arms around each other, before stopping to speak to fans on the red carpet.

The actress dazzled in a fringed top and gold trousers which she accessorised with a blinged out clutch and diamond earrings.

Her long hair was tied back in a ponytail and she kept her makeup simple with smokey eyes and a nude lip.
