Hugh Jackman

Nearly two years after announcing their separation, Deborra-Lee Furness has officially filed for divorce from Hugh Jackman, marking the end of their 27-year marriage. The filing was made in New York, signifying a significant step in their journey towards individual growth and closure. Reports suggest that the couple has already agreed upon the terms of their divorce, involving financial settlements, spousal support, and the future expenses for their two children, Oscar, 25, and Ava, 19.

Furness's lawyer, Elena Karabatos, has also filed additional paperwork to ensure continuity in healthcare coverage for the family and to secure a medical child support order. This move follows a lengthy process of negotiations, as both parties sought a fair division of their $250 million fortune.

The former couple first met in 1995 on the set of the TV drama 'Correlli' and married soon after. Their public announcement of separation in September 2023 was met with headlines and public attention, as both expressed gratitude for their decades together and a commitment to co-parenting despite their decision to pursue separate paths.

Despite the personal and emotional complexities of divorce, insiders indicate that both Jackman and Furness have approached their separation with mutual respect and consideration, ensuring that their family remains a priority even as they finalize their divorce. The process now moves to the next step, awaiting a judge’s sign-off to complete the dissolution of their marriage.

As they navigate this transitional period, both are reportedly committed to maintaining a cordial and cooperative relationship, as they continue to share responsibility for their grown children and support each other’s new ventures in life's next chapter.
