The separation announcement came as a shock to many, as the couple had been an enduring symbol of love and commitment in the entertainment industry. In a statement released earlier this month, Jackman and Furness expressed their gratitude for nearly three decades of shared life and love. They explained that their journey was shifting, leading them to pursue individual growth. The couple affirmed their unwavering dedication to their family, which has always been their top priority.
The statement was signed by both as ‘Deb and Hugh Jackman,’ with a clear message that it would be their only public statement regarding the matter. The couple shares two children together, Oscar, 23, and Ava, 18.
Following the announcement, Jackman briefly spoke to paparazzi on the street. He admitted that it’s a difficult time for both of them but declined to delve further into the details of their separation. The couple has requested privacy as they navigate this transition, emphasizing their intention to maintain a sense of gratitude, love, and kindness throughout this challenging period.
