"Extra" has learned that Keith, whose new single, "Once in a Lifetime," is heating up the charts, just pulled out of his upcoming public appearances, including next month’s Country Music Awards and all promotional appearances for his new album, "Love, Pain and The Whole Crazy Thing." Keith was also forced to cancel his performance at Friday’s star-studded 10th Anniversary Gala for Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun Hotel and Casino, where fellow A-lister Carmen Electra told us, "I think anytime anyone is willing to get help for their situation, I think that’s a positive thing." The country superstar is currently getting help for a second time. In 1998, he entered a Nashville-area treatment center for cocaine addiction. Less than a decade later, Keith’s publicist confirmed to "Extra" that he’s fighting a battle against the bottle. But was Keith’s struggle a factor before the marriage? Reports say there is an addiction clause in the couple’s pre-nup, stating that if Keith reverts to drug or alcohol abuse, Nicole owes him nothing. While Urban’s relapse shocked Nicole and his fans, the news wasn’t surprising inside Promises Treatment Center in Malibu where many stars have sought treatment. Richard Rogg of Malibu’s Promises told "Extra," "Relapse is almost a part of the healing process." A healing process that Keith has begun once again, but this time, with Nicole by his side.

So sad that one of the happiest times of his life he is going through a rough patch. Hopefully he will get through it.
