Hollywood actor Hugh Jackman was recently struggling with a domestic task - loading the dishwasher. He posted a hilarious snap of the results on Instagram, with suds spilling out of the machine onto his kitchen counter. It's possible he had gone a little hard on the washing-up liquid or even used the wrong product for the machine.
The Wolverine actor made the funny domestic blunder just weeks after announcing the end of his 27-year marriage to wife Deborra-Lee Furness. The couple got married in 1996 and went on to welcome children Ava and Oscar together.
In a joint statement, they revealed: ‘We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth. Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness.’
Hugh and Deborra-Lee first met on the set of Correlli in 1995, and instantly became inseparable, with the Les Miserables actor getting down on one knee just months later. Unpacking their relationship during a candid chat with Willie Geist on the Sunday Today Show in 2018, Hugh said: ‘I knew two weeks in to meeting Deb that we were going to be together for the rest of our lives. In the end, what do you want from your life partner? You want to be fully seen and you want to be able to fully see them for exactly who really are. And Deb and I had that from the beginning.’
Deborra recently accidentally spoke in public following their separation in a call mix-up with Australian radio DJs Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O Henderson. After learning of their mistake, Deborra replied with gratitude, saying: ‘Thank you guys, I really appreciate it. You’re really sweet.’ Acknowledging her extremely public marriage breakdown, Kyle assured her: ‘I just feel it’s too soon. I don’t want to get involved in anything. But we love you, and you ring us when you want to chat.’
