Hugh Jackman & Deborra-Lee Furness | Oscar & Ava

Hugh Jackman is known worldwide for his portrayal of the Marvel comic book superhero Wolverine. Moreover, the Guinness Book of World Records gives credit to Hugh for having the longest career as a live-action Marvel Superhero. However, long before his international fame as the rugged superhero, Hugh began his career in theater. So, it doesn’t come as a surprise that he also boasts of a successful career on Broadway. He earned a Tony Award in 2004 for his performance in The Boy From Oz.

Hugh has been married for over two decades to Deborra-Lee Furness, who is an Australian actress. Through the years, they suffered several miscarriages, which was particularly hard for Deborra. Despite their hardships, the couple wanted to have children. As such, they decided that they would adopt. In 2000, they welcomed their son Oscar, and five years later, their daughter Ava.
