Now, his ex-wife has returned to work as an actress and she has opened up about her fear of change but she is excited for the future.
In September 2023, Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness announced in a statement that they were separating after 27 years together and two children together.
"We have been fortunate to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful and loving marriage. Our journey is now changing and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth," they explained then.
The news surprised all of Hollywood since it was a very solid couple. Since the breakup, much has been said about their current relationship and even about the strict confidentiality agreement that Jackman wanted Furness to sign so that he would not talk about her privacy.
In recent months Hugh has been dedicated to his work and recently finished filming Deedpool 3 where we saw him again as Wolverine alongside Ryan Reynolds.

Regarding the filming of the film, she assures that it was "challenging" since it was outdoors almost all the time: "Look, it was difficult!" She states sincerely. "It's raining and there are trees hitting you in the face and you fall, and it's very cold and [there are] leeches. So, yeah, it was a challenge."
