Hugh Jackman Loves American Theatre
Hugh Jackman and his wife Deborra Lee Furness arrive at the American Theatre Wing’s 2009 Spring Gala at Cipriani 42nd Street on Monday (June 1) in New York City.
The 40-year-old actor was the honorary chair for the event, and entertainment was provided by Kristin Chenoweth, Barbara Cook, and Audra McDonald.
Hugh and Daniel Craig are set to star in Keith Huff’s play A Steady Rain on Broadway slated for this fall. Earlier this month it was also announced that Hugh and his Fountain costar Rachel Weisz will be teaming up again for the 19th-century drama Unbound Captives, along with Twilight hottie Robert Pattinson.

# 24…
If you have any smarts…you would have looked it up. In two areas….Wikipedia and IMDB…her birth dates are different.
I’m sure people could care less how old anyone is…so, you don’t have to be a jerk or b i t ch to say something idiotic like “get over it”. Limited vocabulary heh?
If you don’t like the comments on how much older she looks…too bad.
Won’t be long before they break up. That’s usually reality in Hollywood.
He always looks genuinely happy because he’s with his soul mate. Sorry to disappoint you folks, but he’s not insecure and shallow like you wannabes who like to bash celebs and he does not let his peepee or ego decide whom he dates-he lets his heart decide.
Well said “happy hugh”
Come on people his wife is 47 years old. He is 40 years old. His wife is the same age as Demi Moore, Brad Pitt, George Clooney and younger than Madonna.
She may not photograph young, but, I have met her in person and she is very attractive. Being that she is only 7 years older, which is much less than Demi and Ashton, Halle and her Model boyfriend, Ashely Judd and her husband… I dont think seven years is all that much.
OK
OK
She is 8 years older than Hugh, she is 48……I’ve said it before and
I’ll say it again, Hugh was on “the view” in 2003 and said she is 8 years’
older than him, it’s on youtube go and watch it, I think he knows the
correct age of his wife!!!!
@His wifes age…..:
And I’ve told you before that he didn’t say that on the view, and provided you with a link to the video.
If I’m wrong I’ll be happy for you to correct me. Here’s the link again.

Tell me the exact time he said it.
HJ was born in 1968 and his wife in 1955. My limited math tells me the difference is 13 years (plus minus a few months). She actually looks 53 to me. A good looking 53 year old.
Let me start by saying I couldn’t care less how old either of them are. They seem happy and whatever they have works for them. Good on both of them for not caring what others think and living their lives for themselves.
That said though, they are absolutely 13 years apart. He was born October 1968 and she in December 1955. If the age difference doesn’t matter to them, are you all so obessed with it? Just something to ***** about because you can’t find anything else wrong with them? And while Deborra Lee may look older than him, because she is, she certainly does not look old enough to be his mother. In case you haven’t noticed, Hugh doesn’t exactly look young himself either. He has a nice mature look.
They have been together for over 10 years - true love is not some superficial nonsense - it is real regardless of how you look - having said that I think she looks fine for her age and besides Europeans and others and less hung up on looks like us Americans - we need to get over this nonsense…
Australians are not European.
Deborah and Hugh have been together since the 90’s when he was a fairly unknown Australian actor. So there was no way they could know they would be in the Hollywood spotlight one day and people from all over the world would be criticising the age difference and her looks. So could we just get over ourselves here and focus on the fact that he is a great actor who has worked hard to get where he is now (with the support of Deb?) and that his relationship with his wife is actually none of our business? I normally don’t post here but this never ending discussion is getting a bit boring, so let’s talk about something else for a change!
Hugh looks awkward and his smile shows. He looked more relaxed at the premiere of x-man by himself.
What does it matter if she is 13 years older that him. If it was reversed and he was 13 years older than her, no one would say one word except those stupid guys who say “Yeah, man, go for it” and other such things. Leave them alone - they’re in love, happy, faithfull and she hasn’t botched her face. If I was her age and had Hugh around I’d be pretty happy too!
Well, she’s 13 years older then he. Big deal. My ex husband was 10 years older then me and it did not seem to bother anyone…Stop the double standards. She is looking FAB for a 54 year old, has two great kids, is married to a fantastic guy and seems happy. Yep, I’m jealous! (Oh, I forgot the money; I bet she’s not clipping cupons..;-) )
@sam: I completely agree with you and M. YIKES is right! He’s with “grandma.” … gross! :(
OMG! They look absolutely RIDICULOUS together. She is sooo old!
This should be entitled “HUGH LOVES OLD, BLOND ARYAN WOMEN”
oh please!!! they are together. hugh has the wife he wants and they have two children. he is not going anywhere. he is staying with her. get used to it.
I’m sure Hugh Jackman doesn’t give a rat’s ass about what a bunch of nasty, anonymous posters on the internet think about his choice of a wife. Hugh often says his wife and their children are more important than anything else in his life.
I always think she looks much older than 54ish….I know many women in their 50’s - including me - and we don’t look quite that worn out.
The age differance between them is sooo obvious. I am still amazed that he married in his late 20’s to someone that was almost 40….
what gives?? I mean LOOK AT HIM!!! drop dead drool worthy …all I know is THAT I AM HER AGE AND SHE HAS HIM……dang….
@Dee:
she has him and you don’t because she probably doesn’t spend her time putting down other women…
I do think there is some psychological issue (like his own mother leaving the family) that drives Hugh to be attracted to a woman as old as Deb. *** We all know why Deb, or any woman for that matter, would want Hugh! :) ***
Anyway, I understand why a man would be attracted to a woman that is 4 or 5 years older… but THIRTEEN YEARS OLDER???? Come on! That is just not normal. :(
I have three nephews who married older women and they were raised in homes by their mothers and fathers. One’s wife is 13 yrs older, one’s is 7 yrs older and one’s is 6 yrs older. All are happy marriages of more than 10 years. Certainly no “psychological issues” involved, they just happened to fall in love with older women.
