Hugh Jackman’s Beach Bonding With Kids

Hugh Jackman’s Beach Bonding With Kids

Hugh Jackman relaxed in some waters off Bowen, Queensland with his two children, Oscar Maximillian and Ava Eliot.

Jackman, 38, helped his son learn to bodyboard in the ocean and then he watched over his daughter as she climbed some rocks nearby. But Jackman wasn’t just dedicated to his adopted children, he also took some time out to play with the children of his co-stars.

Hugh Jackman is currently in Bowen, Queensland filming the epic Australia with Nicole Kidman.

Australia is set in Northern Australia prior to World War II and centers around the reluctant relationship between an English aristocrat (Kidman) and a rough-hewn cattle driver (Jackman). As the two of them lead 2,000 cattle across Australian land, they encounter first-hand the bombing of Darwin, Australia by the same Japanese forces that bombed Pearl Harbor.

There is no release date set for this film as of this time.

Check out 50 photos of Jackman at the beach with his family after the jump!

mj, nice to hear that you were just goofin’. Wasn’t sure there at first and I was getting ready to get my feathers ruffled because I and my siblings are adopted and no one is ever going to tell me that we aren’t a “real” family. And I wouldn’t suggest that anyone ever go up to Hugh and Deb Jackman and tell them that they and their children aren’t a real family either. Although I’m going to guess that very few would go up to them and say directly to their faces some of things that are said about them around here (Isn’t hiding behind a computer screen in anonimity a lovely thing? Why didn’t we think of it sooner?). Family has NOTHING to do with DNA. A few examples of that are; the biological father who just burned his newborn in a microwave. Or the biological father several years ago who set his little boy on fire in a motel room and left him to die. Or Susan Smith driving her biological sons to their deaths. Or Diane Downs gunning down her three biological children so that she could be with her lover. The list goes on and on.

As for Hugh referring to his children as adopted…he doesn’t. The media does. When it’s brought up to him, he replies along the lines…’until someone mentions it, I forget that they are adopted. They’re just my kids.’

I’m telling you, this is the guy who should be held up as THE role model. So many of these others are living lives that are train wrecks; ******** around, destroying their families. But they seem to be the ones that everyone is interested in and of course the tabs are only interested in scandalous lives, because those are the ones that sell.

‘Fraid a boring family man just doesn’t cut it these days. Good. Who would want that kind of tabloid scrutiny in their lives? And as long as he keeps living the life he’s living now, they should pretty much leave him alone.

Actually, these look very similar to the last set of photos of Hugh at the beach with the kids.

Nothing new really.

adopted or not, these kids are getting a lot of love from Hugh and Debora. They make a beautiful family.

omg he is gorgeous. theres nothing sexier than a family man.

26#- how the f*ck do you fit a baby in a microwave?

I think that he is a great dad!! But who are the two other kids who is playing with?

A baby can fit into my microwave.

My microwave is big enough as well. Ever since that story broke, I think of that poor child every time I open the microwave.

The only thing worse the the child being put in there, is the childs’ so-called Mother ACTUALLY making excuses for the Father.

Horrible.

realistically an 7/8lbs baby can’t fit in a microwave. an oven maybe or a washing machine, not a microwave.

Keeley,

Some microwaves are quite large and some babies are quite small. I know it seems impossible from a physical standpoint (actually, it even seems impossible from a montrous standpoint), but it is fact. It did happen. He somehow managed it.

The baby survived with second degree burns over it’s entire body, but the worry is that, if there is brain damage, it may be irrepareable.

I don’t believe in the death penalty and then I hear stories like this (and especially Laci Peterson), and I have to keep reminding myself…I don’t believe in the death penalty. I don’t believe in the death penalty. I don’t believe in the…

How could someone do this to a baby? Their own little baby? How?

Makes you just want to scream, don’t it?

And as for the ethnic heritage of Hugh’s children, he just recently revealed it.

His son is African American/Caucasian/Hispanic/
Hawaiian and Cherokee Indian. He once called him, “a child of the Universe.” Isn’t that beautiful? His daughter is Hispanic and German.
His son was born in Los Angeles and his daughter in Texas making them both American citizens.

He stated that when they first married, their plan was to have two and adopt two. So it was always in their plans to adopt some kids. But sadly when they realized they wouldn’t be parents “naturally”, they just went to plan B. They specifically asked for mixed race children because they didn’t want to wait. There are so many of them available but it seems as though everyone wants a white baby and are willing to wait. The Jackmans weren’t.
They didn’t care. They just wanted a baby.

awww, theres unconditional love for ya. I am thinking about emmigrating to australia from britain but I don’t really want my kids to have aussie accents.

Oscar jackmans mother committed suicide in 2006, her father stated she was unable to cope with the loss of Oscar, this would have been made even more painful by seeing photos of Oscar in the press. I hope the film Australia has made the Jackmans aware , that they can,t give Oscar his identity as an American Indian, sanders his mothers name is a cherekee name. Oscars two siblings went into welfare on his mothers death. This is the dark side of the jackmans much publicised adoption that they neglect to share.

I think it’s good for people to know when celebrities’ children are adopoted simply because when ever a celeb does just about anything, it tends to spread awareness of it, and God knows there are plenty of children needing to be adopted.
