Still Smitten After All These Years

When it comes to long-lasting love, Hugh Jackman is living proof that it’s possible to stay deeply in love for decades. The charismatic actor, who has been married to Deborra-Lee Furness for 23 years, recently opened up about how their relationship continues to flourish. With a smile that could light up the darkest room, Hugh shared that the secret to their enduring connection lies in their willingness to learn from one another. "We’re always learning and evolving as humans," he explained. "Even though we’ve been together for 25 years, we’re constantly resetting our relationship. I’m continually amazed by how funny, amazing, and intelligent she is. The longer we’re together, the better things get." It’s clear that Hugh sees their marriage not as something static, but as a living, breathing entity that grows stronger with time.

Learning and Laughing Together

In a world where relationships can sometimes grow stale, Hugh and Deborra-Lee have managed to keep the spark alive. The Logan star attributes much of their success to the way they approach life together. "We never stop learning from each other," Hugh said with a grin. "She’s always surprising me with her wit and intelligence. It’s not just about the big moments; it’s the little things that keep us connected. Whether it’s a shared laugh or a deep conversation, we’re always growing together." Their commitment to personal and relational growth is evident in every word Hugh speaks about his wife. At 51 years old, Hugh still finds himself marveling at the woman he married all those years ago.

Deborra-Lee’s Perspective on Their Love Story

Of course, it’s not just Hugh who feels this way. Deborra-Lee Furness, the talented star of Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole, has her own take on what makes their relationship so special. In a January interview with Us Weekly, she revealed what she loves most about her husband. "He makes me laugh," she said with a warm smile. "He’s hilarious—not as funny as me, but he’s good. I give him all his best material!" It’s clear that humor plays a big role in their relationship, and it’s one of the things that keeps them grounded and connected. The couple, who have been together since 1996, share two children: Oscar, 19, and Ava, 14. Their family life is as vibrant and loving as their marriage.

A Heartfelt Tribute

Hugh’s love for Deborra-Lee extends far beyond their day-to-day life. In 2018, when he was honored with the Kirk Douglas Award for Excellence in Film at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, he took the opportunity to pay tribute to his wife in a deeply emotional way. "You believed in me when I couldn’t," he said, his voice filled with gratitude. "You’ve loved me with a passion and a depth that I didn’t even know existed—and I didn’t think I deserved. You’ve pushed and encouraged me when I was scared to venture out. You’ve smiled me into smiling. You’ve sung me into singing. You’ve loved me into loving. And like everything I do in my life, I share this with you. I love you." It’s moments like these that remind us why Hugh and Deborra-Lee’s relationship is so inspiring.
