Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness share two kids: Oscar and Ava. Their split in September 2023 left fans in shock. At the time, they said, “We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades 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.” A formal submission was made two years after this announcement. Deborra’s lawyer also submitted filings related to a medical child support order, health care coverage, and a certification of dissolution, according to the Daily Mail.

All details about alimony and child care have been ironed out between the duo. After the divorce filing, Deborra, for the first time, hinted at a betrayal by Hugh Jackman in a statement. According to reports, she called their divorce ‘a perfect wound that cuts deep.’
