One of Hollywood’s longest lasting couples, Hugh Jackman, 54, and Deborra-Lee Jackman, 67, shocked audiences when they shared the news that they are going their separate ways. The duo, who share 2 children, have been together for half their lives and the reason for their soon-to-come divorce has been revealed, and it’s nothing like what people expected.
Hugh and Deborra-Lee met in 1995.
Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness met on the set of the Australian TV series Correlli in 1995, on the first day of the actor’s first job after drama school.
“She was a big star. Everyone loved Deb. I get picked up by the car and Deb is in the front seat of the car. I get in the backseat. She had sunglasses on, she took off her seatbelt, turned around and said ‘Hi, I’m Deborra-Lee Furness, nice to meet you.’ and I remember thinking, ‘I like this girl’.”
6 weeks into filming, Jackman noticed a man courting Deborra-Lee, and he thought “that man has a crush on her”. That’s when he realized he was actually jealous of the man, and he had a crush on her himself. A few days later, after not talking to her for one week, he confessed his feelings and to his surprise, she reciprocated; she told him she was also crushing on him and that’s how their love story began.
After 11 months of dating, Hugh and Deborra-Lee tied the knot.
Over the following years, the couple struggled with infertility and experienced many failed IVF attempts and sadly, multiple miscarriages, all of which were “particularly difficult on Deb,” Jackman shared. Becoming parents was always their plan, Jackman shared, “We thought we’d have a kid or two biologically and then adopt. But when we decided we’d had enough of IVF, we went ahead with adoption.”
In 2000, they adopted their eldest son, Oscar, now 23 years old, and their daughter Ava, in 2005, who recently turned 18.
Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee had a happy life together.
The two never missed a moment to show each other and the world how much they mean to each other. Every single year Jackman honored his wife by publicly sharing how much he loves her and fans always admired and gushed over the outpour of love.
In April 2023, on their 27th and last wedding anniversary, Jackman shared a loving tribute to his wife, stating, “27 YEARS! I love you so much, and together we have created a beautiful family. And life. Your laughter, your spirit, generosity, humor, cheekiness, courage, loyalty is an incredible gift to me. I love you with all my heart.”
Just a few months later, one of Hollywood’s most loved duos announced their separation.
In a joint statement, Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee announced, “We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting, and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.
Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness. We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.”
2023 brought many Hollywood couples to a stop, with many celebrities divorcing after years spent together. Another recent divorce was Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner’s and their reason, although different than the ex-Jackmans’, is equally devastating.
Jennifer Aniston’s Dress at the Emmys 2024 Is Getting Slammed – Find Out Why
Some people online were not happy with the dress Jennifer Aniston wore to the awards event, while others loved it.
At the 2024 Emmys on Sunday, September 15, Jennifer Aniston, 55, made a stunning appearance on the red carpet in a strapless dress. The “Morning Show” star, who briefly mentioned working with her co-star Reese Witherspoon at the Emmys, received a lot of reactions online about her outfit.
Aniston wore a beautiful silver gown by the famous designer Oscar de la Renta. The strapless dress was adorned with intricate beadwork that matched perfectly with her jewelry.
To add even more elegance, Aniston wore a stunning diamond and platinum ring, bracelet, and vintage earrings from Tiffany & Co. She kept her blonde and dark-colored hair loose.
Several pop culture websites posted eye-catching photos and videos of Aniston striking poses on the red carpet. Fans and critics online had strong reactions to the coverage of her appearance.
Some people were not impressed with her outfit and shared their thoughts online. One person on Facebook commented, “She has worn this look so many times,” while another said, “It doesn’t fit well at the waist. She always goes for the same style. .”
Another person echoed similar thoughts, writing, “Omg, change your look; it’s always the same…” Agreeing with this view, another commenter said, “She’s beautiful, but it’s always the same!” Meanwhile, a Facebook user simply stated, “Overrated!”
While some believe Aniston’s latest look is repetitive, Page Six reports that at the 2024 SAG Awards, she chose a different route with a sparkling silver gown from Celine.
Before this year’s Emmys and the SAG Awards, Aniston usually favored a little black dress (LBD) for red carpets. However, she broke from her usual style when she wore a red Reformation dress, priced under $300, to an Emmy Awards pre-show event earlier in 2024.
Despite the criticism Aniston faced for her 2024 Emmys look, many people praised her appearance as well. The official Instagram account for the Emmys/Television Academy celebrated her style with a post that featured photos of the actress and the caption, “She is beauty she is grace – #JenniferAniston
“She looks absolutely stunning!!” exclaimed a fan on Facebook. Another admirer praised her by saying, “Perfect always yet appears effortless and always classy. Admirable especially when others are showing their underwear. She really stands out.”
Their series, “The Morning Show,” was nominated for Outstanding Drama Series. While on the red carpet, Jennifer Aniston chatted briefly with E! about her working relationship with Reese Witherspoon.
She shared, “We’ve grown up together. We were kids together and now we’re grown-ups together… I couldn’t ask for a better partner.”
