It could be as dramatic and top-secret and private as alcoholism. Saying I love you, but you’re not getting help, and I don’t need to be with you anymore. Or affairs or anger.


Well said. We (the public) will probably never know because they said the statement will be the only information they will be sharing. I have a lot of admiration for them as people. Everyone who has met them only has good things to say.

Wow, Jackman’s wife could pass for his mother!


The man is in his 50s. His mother would be in her mid70s to 80s. 🙄


Exactly. She looks in her 70s!


No she doesn't. This is what 60s looked like before botox, fillers and hair dye.


She looks like she’s had something done - botched nose job maybe. Either way they do not match physically at all. She looks elderly.

It’s almost always the woman who initiates & files for divorce after 25+ years of marriage. Probably a safe assumption that she moved this forward.


I'll bet you're right. The divorces in our circle have been initiated by the women.

NP Due to unfortunately pale skin/genes and probably an unwillingness to get work done, she does look mid 70s. My mother is 65, just a little younger than her, and looks so so much better (because of genes not getting work done)

Oh just stop. You are being ridiculous. And mean. You enjoy doing that amirite?

And they helped change mindsets and laws in australia to make it easier for older people to adopt.

I wish them both all the very best .


Their kids were adopted in the US from unwed mothers. It’s not like they did all this in Australia. Their first kid came from a 22 year-old mother in Iowa who was already on her 4th child, they flew her to LA to give birth.


NP. Yes…most children who get adopted are not coming from households where the parents are married.

You might be right, but I think we are in a different era, and not just of acceptance, but also sex in movies. There are no real sex scenes anymore. Jackman can continue in his semi-chaste leading man roles and as Wolverine with no problem. He might even be cast as a main gay lead.


Yes, like Tom Cruise.


Tom Cruise is in a cult that values the appearance of normative heterosexual relationships. Jackman is not.
