Keith Urban promises to stay sober

Keith Urban has insisted that he will find it easy to stay on the wagon following his stint in rehab.

The country music singer, who is married to actress Nicole Kidman, revealed that he has felt much stronger since checking out of the Betty Ford clinic in California earlier this year, following 90 days of treatment for alcoholism.

Asked if it would be difficult to avoid alcohol, he replied: "Actually it's not. The other way for me was much tougher because I was not really living. I was choosing the option not to feel and in the last few months I've felt that I'm alive, engaged in my own life, present and accountable. The irony is I'm becoming the person I was trying to be all along."
