Hugh Jackman is a Popscicle Parent
Hugh Jackman treats his kids Oscar, 9, and daughter Ava, 3, to some cold treats while mom Deborra Lee Furness watched on Thursday afternoon (May 21) at the West Side Park in New York City.
The 40-year-old Aussie actor hasn’t been updating his Twitter recently with good reason. Last week, Hugh tweeted, “Hey-Sorry, I have been quiet. spending much needed time with the deb and the kids.”
15+ pictures inside of Hugh Jackman spending time with his family at the park…

his kids are adorable, hes also HOT
am i the only one who thinks hugh jackman is gay?? he’s waaay more attractive than his wife & he LOVES show tunes…its all just a little suspect. BUT i still love his sexy body! lol
CUTE))))
Oscar is so similar to Hugh. I can’t believe he’s adopted! :)
“The Deb”??? WTF?? like “the thing”?
@TRUTHFUL TRACY:
I don’t see what that has to do with a person’s sexuality.
Is Hugh the ideal Father figure? First he banks millions on a hit blockbuster, then he gives coffee and donuts to everyone who waited in line, he always looks good, and he knows when to take time off of work to spend with his family.
Viva la Hugh?!
very cute
I think Hugh is just not shallow. He seems to be more into inner beauty which is a good thing. His kids are super cute and I’m sure he is a great father. I met him briefly at the Wolverine Premiere. He was so sweet to everyone.
His kids are lucky to have him. He is such an involved father. I wish my father was like that when I was young. He left us.

I agree, Hugh and Oscar do look alike lol.
his wolverine movie sucked but his kids are both adorable.
Hugh is absolutely wonderful. Deb is just way too old for him. She must be a “mother figure” to him.
Deb is only 9 years older than Jack…hardly old enough to be his mother. Deb is 49. Younger than Madonna and only three years older than Demi Moore. Her age difference is no different than Ashley Judd and her husband OR Halle Berry and her baby daddy. So get over it.
If she had a sleeker figure she would look much younger…but, this is why I love this family. Deb is very pretty - not Hollywood starlet thin, but pretty. Hugdh loves his wife - it’s obvious and loves his family. You never hear drama out of this family and it is so refreshing.
Now if you want to talk about a wife old enough to be her husbands mother thne you should point a finger at Demi Moore. Better yet there is the gross Madonna at 51 years old and her 23 year old boyfriend.
Deb looks so old… and she really does look like she could be his mother. I can understand why Ashton went for Demi… She actually still looks young and HOT.
What is a 52 year old woman like Deb doing with a 3 year old daughter??? Playing “grandma”???
@sade: Sorry Sade but she’s 53, but she’s still an amazing woman and they love each other and they’re a great family.
coolest guy in hollywood. i see him on west street all the time and he’s always chill.
Do you actually all know Deb personally???
She seems rather foolish to be a mother to a 3 year old at her old age. Hugh may be in love with her because she is a nice person, but I question her judgment. There are a lot of kind people in this world. Deb is not the only one.
deborra is disgusting as usual and hugh is gorgeous as usual!!!! hugh deserves someone much better than this old,ugly, stupid woman
I just can’t see his babies ! I CAN’T STOP LOOKING AT HIM !
You people that judge this woman only because she does not meet the Hollywood beauty standard are disgusting. She is NOT in Hollywood…judge the people who are and who make it their life, if you must.
That said…Hugh is the HOTTEST poppa out there! He seems like such a wonderful father.
Hugh Jackman loves his wife because ______________??? 20 pts to the person with the best answer!!!
@Sarah:
Just at the moment I thought the posters at JJ and JJJ had reached heights of stupidity that have yet to seen in some parts of the world a bunch of you come on and show that there is no limits to ignorance, prejudice and just plain nastiness.
THere are more men than I can count in Hollywood in their 60’s with young children and 20 something year old wives. Debbie is 9 years older that Hugh hardly a milenium and having a child at 49 is not exactly a crime.
But beyond that all you do is show how unhappy you are in your relationships if you have one which I doubt by your remarks.
In the end Hugh loves his wife and no matter what she looks like to you she makes him happy - something I’m sure a good portion of you have no idea how to do even for yourselves.
Did she play one of the witches in the Disney movie, Hocus Pocus? I heard she is also an actress.
@Liza:
Well his mother did abandon him when he was 8, so maybe that’s why he likes old women.
I LOVE!! HUGE JACKMAN!!!
@Carla:
she didn’t exactly abandon him. she kept in touch with her kids. I’ve seen jackman and his mother together and they seem to have a good relationship, and he always talks about her with a great deal of affection.
Love how this family revolves around everyday routines. Hugh is a big star, but you don’t see him carting around gigantic bodyguards just to go workout or shopping like Tomkat.
@JohnnyNacho:
He married her because He’s gay and needed a ‘wife front’ so that he can still get ‘manly man’ roles, just like Tom Cruise.
@JohnnyNacho:
Hugh is a hot man and you got to respect the fact that he is with her b/c he loves her and they were high school sweethearts. Good for him, he doesn’t need some hot bimbo.
i want hugh jackman.
divorce your husband, hugh and come with me.
hahaha
she looks like ivana trump…
@JohnnyNacho:
uhm, because he has a wrinkled laundry fetish? He likes his women with, “Righ droopy swingers?” He’s legally blind? She has a lovely personality?
It’s only natural that people comment on Deb’s age, she may be only
9 years older than Hugh but she LOOKS 20 years older, he looks fantastic for 40 and she hasn’t aged well.
I know people who have met her and they say she is VERY bossy and
opinionated, because Hugh’s mother left the family when he was young maybe she is a maternal figure for him.
I know he loves his wife but I can’t help but imagine how he
would look with a hot young woman who enjoys the same type
of things as him, he loves the sea but you never ever see Deb
swimming and she is always dressed in dreary black clothes.
Who cares if Hugh is gay or not. Nobody’s business really!!!
What is great about Hugh is that he is totally into his family. Non of this huge-azz bodyguard stuff. Just him, his wife and kids.
The difference between Hugh and the crazy Tiny-Tom Cruise, is the public and fans LOVE Hugh Jackman AND Hugh is multi-talented. Crazy Tiny-Tom is a alien loving freak show who is in love with himself.
When they got married they were both poor so no pre-nup, now if he leaves, he has to give half to her!
HE’S TRAPPED IN A UGLY MARRIAGE!!!!!
@JohnnyNacho:
he doesn’t know any better….
The Jackmans!!!!!!! One of the favorite “Hollywood” families. Along with Ben and Jen Affleck and of course the Jolie-Pitts!!!!
@sarah:
SHE IS 13 YEARS OLDER THAN HUGH!!!!! She was born in 1955 (The year James Dean died). She graduated from High School in 1973! I know most of you fell asleep during math class, but does anyone remember how to do basic addition? Hugh is 40. 40 + 13 = 53.
TA-DAH!!!!!
I agree, Hugh is a wonderful family man. You can tell he LOVES being out with Deb and the kids. No calling the paps or pimping the kids out for extra exposure like media hos Katie and Tom. Hugh kids ALWAYS look happy and are having fun!!!!!
@sonny:
Oh please, at least Suri is pretty! And I don’t believe Katie pimps her daugther out, she a just very pretty child, looks better than this rag doll. The media is just obsessed with Suri.
@JohnnyNacho:
because he’s blind! Seriously, his bio on IMDb.com says he’s near-sighted and can’t see very well.
Hugh Jackman you are a wonderful father, its so nice to see such a hands on Dad like Tom Cruise..
@JohnnyNacho:
because under all those wrinkles is a beautiful princess imprisoned in her skin by a spell only Harry Potter can break!
@JohnnyNacho:
Mate, us aussie chicks are still trying to figure it out.
If it worked for Randy Travis, why not give the fake marriage a try!!!!
They should have casted his wife as Wolverine…lol
they’re soulmates, how many of you haters have found your soulmate?
Why the hell are they feeding that child junk food, full of high fructose corn syrup? She’s already chubby for her age, and will more than likely be fat like her mom when she gets older! Bad parents!
@JohnnyNacho:
because she reminds him of the mom he wished he had !!!??? Is he still breast feeding ???!!! lol
@allison:
Hugh is my soulmate!!!!!
He needs to wake up and smell the old poop-**** in the toilet!!!
Hee hee!!! Deborra is fullfilling the mother role void in Hugh’s life! … Poor guy, he deserves more in a wife. Deborra is a fat old lady that needs to act her age… find someone that is her own age!
@JohnnyNacho:
because they have sex with the light off???
# 42 ” whatever” - I mean Katie Holmley -
Sorry but just calling it how I see it. Living in NYC, I see celebs out all the time with their families and Katie-doll courted those awful paps EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!! Suri was a miserable mess and never happy. As for the Jackman kids, they are ALWAYS having fun and laughing and smiling and playing. Like kids should be. Jackman family rocks!!!!
@JohnnyNacho:
Hugh Jackman loves his wife because…without her he couldn’t have bought the “2 for the price of 1″ special at the local “Dentures Built While You Wait” special.
I be glad when this man makes some babies of his own!
LOVE THIS FAMILY !!!!
So many cruel and rude posters. So what if Deb is older then Hugh. The Jackman’s seem like a very loving family and that is all that really matters anyways.
@Correction Ho….:
She was born the same year James Dean died? DAYYUMMM! This ***** is old!! He might as well should have married Elizabeth Taylor for gods sake!
I know some actors who have worked on set with the Jackman’s and they comment on how loving this family is together. Hugh and Deb are a team and have been together a very long time. Both are respected in both hollywood and broadway circles. To each is own and I wish them much happiness.
I won’t be surprised if most of these stupid comments are made by the same bored person@cassandra:
those nasty comments are made a minute apart, and are eerily similar to comments made on another jackman post. so many of them are probably made by the same person, which is very pathetic.
@sade: It’s 12 years, not 9. But I don’t think that’s a big deal anyway.
@Kendra:
Oh trust me honey, he will one day! Look at what happen to Tom Cruise and Nicole. They were married for years and adopted (for whatever reason) two children. Then they spilt up, remarried, and had kids of their own. Nicole has Sundae Rose and Tom has beautiful Suri. It won’t be long before this happens to the Jackmans. Hugh will remarried a beautiful woman, a little younger than him. And will make his own kid. His wife on the other hand, I’m not sure what she’ll do. She’s too old get pregnant and considering her looks, it will be extremely hard for her to find a man to remarry. She more than likely be left to raise their two adopted kids. It’s only a matter of time!
@Ethan: Yes, but what about Hugh? You believe that he at least shouldn’t have a 3 year old child because his wife is 53? C’mon!
@JohnnyNacho: You’ve asked this again, man? Can you just get over it?
with THE deb and the kids. Wrong wrong wrong
@Christine: You are stupid
@linda:
So you saw Katie Holmes every single day that she lived in New York? stalker….
I don’t think for one moment, that she is pimping her daugther out. Tom on the other hand, I’m not so sure about. But they are celebs and will be in the public spotlight regradless. I just hate when people see Tomkat or Bradgelina and automatically say their pimping their children out, but when the see other celeb kids having photo ops, theysay nothing. Why the double-standard?
@aimee: AGREE. Who cares about Jackman’s sexuality? I care about two things: 1) he has huge talent, 2) he seems to be a very good and down to earth person and noone can deny that…
@bradley: Do you have any kids? Is Ava chubby? Their are bad parents? How can you possibly judge them? When you were a kid you didn’t eat ice-creams? Or you are Madonna’s child and you didn’t tell us? Jesus. how many stupid comments we have to read in this post?
@emily:
I agree. I don’t think either of these people are using their kids for photo ops. not jackman, not cruise, not brad pitt. I don’t know them of course and I could be wrong, but I can’t imagine these parents using their kids like that. the cameras are there, what can they do? smash the photog’s camera? hide their kids at home?
I have to agree with one poster that said they married with no-prenup. If it’s ture that they met while the were both in Australia filming a tv series. And he was a new actor and she was already an known actress in AUS. Then maybe they did married with no pre-nup. I heard he married her like 6 months after they met. They look like a really happy couple, and I hope they are happy, because if they are not, then Hugh is screwed financially if they ever divorce!
@Linnéa:
There’s no way this man is having sex with her. He probably sleeps in the same bed with her but I doubt he’s doing the nasty with something nasty.
@sercan:
It’s probably a typo…everyone makes them!
@mimilala:
She is married to a hollywood actor!!!! She is apart of him! She is apart of hollywood and the public eye. And just like other people in hollywood, she will be praised and ridiculed. Some people will like her, and some will not. Get over it! Everyone has the right to state their own opinion. And if one’s opinions is, she is an old hag, then that’s their opinion. And you can’t change that!
When is he returning to Broadway?
Those kids are awesome. MOre parents should adopt!
The thought of Hugh having sex with that old hag (Deb) makes me feel ill… :(
Forget the sex!!! She is supposed to be one BOSSY OLD LADY!!!
If I can marry a man like Hugh…!
Yeah, Hugh is a hot daddy (and he could get any woman on this planet)…. but my goodness, Deb looks like Ava and Oscar’s GRANDMOTHER!!!
Deb looks the the grandma to those cute kids!
seems like Hugh Jackman play a father-mother role in the life with his children..good man

The only way they could’ve been high school sweethearts is if they were Australia’s version of Mary Kay Letourneau and Vili Fualaau.
People…here in Brazil we have a proverb. It says: THE ESSENCIAL IS INVISIBLE TO THE EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hugh is just the perfect man. Smart, talented, gorgeous and totally devoted to his wife and kids. It is so nice to see someone who judges someone by their soul not their looks. Too bad that so many people posting can’t see it. They probably have not experienced it in their lives and therefore do not understand that it exists. Just because he is a movie star doesn’t mean he has to be shallow. I am not as pretty or as skinny as I was when my husband met me, but to him I am always beautiful. Hugh Jackman’s family is blessed to have a man like him.
Yes it’s obvious he loves his wife BUT it’s only human nature to
notice that she looks a lot older than him and to comment on the fact
he looks fantastic and she looks more like his mother.
I really think she is a maternal type figure for him as his mother left the family when he was only 8.
It might be wrong but I can’t help it that I would love to see him with someone really vibrant, hot and young who is a match for him instead of seeing him with a tired looking old lady always dressed in black.
Deb looks creepy…. especially when she smiles… her upper lip looks really weird. She is supposed to be pretty bossy too! Why did he pick that tired old hag when he could have any woman on this planet????
well, maybe because he could get ANY girl, Deb was a “challenge” for him… because she is SOOOO MUCH OLDER!!! ugghhh…. Hugh got the raw deal in that marriage. :(
Deborra-Lee Furness was a hottie and well-respected Aussie actress. Hugh was just out of film school, geeky kid when he did a movie with her. She was considered a real catch at the time. Honestly, if you Google her bio, you will see that she was absolutely stunning. Sad that she has aged very badly, and let her body go. He is 40, she is 53.
She also badly needs to go to the dentist for a cleaning and perhaps some light cosmetic dental work. There is no excuse for Deb to resemble Camilla Parker-Bowles.
@Angela:
I don’t think she owes any of us anything when it comes to her looks. that’s between her and her husband.
Debra is 48 years old……..She is NOT 13 years older than him, Hugh was on “the View” and said she is 8 years older than him, look it up on youtube……..she does LOOK 20 years older than him though!!!
Reading some of the comments here made me lose a little faith in humanity.
Why are the comments always the same?
Some of the people commenting here even write the same boring sentences on every new series of Hugh pics.
Can´t you think of anything new?
I like how the Jackman-Furness couple does not present their kids with some strange but highly fashionable “bio-energetic-kabbala-zen-or-fengshui-sweets” but simple popsicles.
These kids seem to be allowed to be kids, although the Hollywood-Treadmill surely presses on the family.
I think the comments are always the same because lots of people are shocked at how ugly and old Deb is… in comparison to Hugh. The kids are really cute though! :) Oh well, I am sure Hugh likes Deb because she’s nice.
What a sad theme going on here….so much focus on age and looks….isn’t it what’s inside that matters?
Surely all that folks writing that Mrs. Furness is old and ugly are beauty-queens and -kings….If I will be in my fifties and stil be looking as good as she does I will be very happy. Why don´t all of you scorning her show us a pic of you…if you dare…What is the measure for beauty?
I’ve always loved him
Hugh is hands down the best daddy in all of Hollywood!!
