Hugh Jackman’s Soccer Fun

Sat, 04 August 2007 at 10:44 am

Family man Hugh Jackman always looks like he has so much fun with his kids! Everyone is always manhandling each other… but in a good way!

The Aussie actor lifted his son Oscar, 7, upside down while daughter Ava, 2, covered her face with a green soccer cone. The children came out to support their cousin play for his soccer team at Rushcutters Bay, Sydney on Saturday.

Even mommy Deborra-Lee Furness got down and dirty! And guess what’s between Hugh’s legs?!?!

Recently, Furness spoke out against the red tape and bureaucracy in Australia’s adoption culture, preventing thousands of childless couples from adopting overseas babies.

“We’ve experienced it first hand; we tried to adopt in Australia and couldn’t because we were overwhelmed by the hurdles and obstacles they put in our way,” said Furness. “I’m fortunate. I have two beautiful children and that’s why people come to me and say, ‘Deb can you help me?’ I have to tell them it will be long, expensive and may not happen.”

Oscar is mixed race - there was an article saying exactly what the mix is but of course I can’t find it.

I love this family! His wife is beautiful because she cares more
about who she is rather than any foolish comments people make. They
always look happy and like they enjoy being together. People usually
don’t do their hair and make up for viewing a soccer game.

Hugh and Deb know what is really important in life and live their lives accordingly. We should all follow their example….

Haha, Oscar is gonna be a heart breaker when he’s older! I can tell, and Ava is sooo cute! wonderful family!

I think I read that Oscar is part Maori. He’ll be a gorgeous guy when he grows up. And what a cool big brother to have.

Found it -

http://www.celebrity-babies.com/2007/05/hugh_jackman_ta.html

“Oscar is a bit of everything - African-American, Caucasian, Hawaiian and Cherokee. We specifically requested a bi-racial child because there was more of a need. People will wait 18 months to adopt a little blonde girl; meanwhile, bi-racial children are turned away. The same was true for Ava, she’s half Mexican, half German.”

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Doesn’t matter what she wears, *she* is the hot one of the pair. A beautiful smile, infectious laugh, and great sense of humor. Looks like she’s a great mother too, considering how happy the kids look and how many films Hugh’s been shooting since they’ve adopted them.

He is the hottest Dad alive.
His wife is one lucky woman and he seems to adore her and his family.

Hugh is such a dedicated dad! Seeing him playing and having fun with his cute children just make me have more admiration for him ^_^! I love him even more!
God bless Hugh and his lovely family ^_^!

Thanks a lot for the pics, Jared!

There are a lot of stupid people here. The woman is his beard. The man is gay.

I’m so jealous of his children and his wife, they get to touch him all the time. LOL.

Love the photos, Jared. Hugh and his family are just so adorable I just can’t stand it. I love the way they are so affectionate with each other and so touchy feely- like you said, in a good way. They seem so happy together, there are so many people that could take a lesson from them. I am sure they appreciate their children even more because of how much they had to go through to get them. That is one lucky family. I think it is great that Deb is fighting to help others adopt- way to go!!!

just saying @ 08/04/2007 at 6:27 pm

I wish they make another X-Men movie!!

SNAGGERS @ 08/04/2007 at 6:28 pm

Oscar is gorgeous.. I had first thought that Hugh stepped out on his wife cause since Oscar was a baby you could see the black… LMAO..

I don’t think that Mixed race have a harder time to get adopted, probably in Australia but in the US, they get adopted faster than AA kids.
In America, Eva might have gotten adopted way faster than Oscar.

But I am happy that people are adopting and giving these kids families to belong to..

HF @ 08/04/2007 at 6:59 pm

Here’s an article about adoption in Australia - Hugh’s wife has spoken out about how hard it is to adopt in that country and that’s why they went to the US to adopt Oscar and Ava.

There are a lot of jealous people here. The woman is his wife. The man is not gay.

Xegna, no you’re wrong. There are only three stupid people here: #9, #10 and #21. I almost included #6 but that’s not stupid, just poor taste.

Lizzie @ 08/04/2007 at 10:34 pm

You know what? These are two strong people who found one another. They have two kids together. They seem to do just fine with intense public scrutiny. I’ve seen hundreds of marriages more screwed up than this one appears to be. They all like each other right now. How they all deal with adolescence will be interesting. What is between them is genuine though. I personally think he is probably bi sexual, but it doesn’t freaking matter when it comes to his personal relationships. He can take and he can give. She can take, and she can give. They are celebrities who can do so much worse with what they have.
