Because they're now empty nesters, he's aged out of romantic lead roles, and they want different things (and real romance) in their final decades.

Even if he is gay, why after 27 years would they divorce? Why not keep doing what you are doing?

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.

He’s aging out of those lead romantic roles and is done with marvel so if he is gay now os a good time for him to come out without dealing with the crap backlash from all the marvel fanboys. I think he’s like to age into playing smart thoughtful roles like Ian mckellan, who does just find as an out gay man. I’m not saying Hugh is gay but I think it’s way easier to be gay as a sophisticated actor in your late 50s than as a. Up and coming 30 year old actor.

I don’t think he’s gay at all. Does marrying an older woman mean you’re gay?

No, being gay with no history of romantic attraction toward your wife means you're gay.

How would you know this? You talk like you are in his inner circle. Reminds me of the self-important posters on the royal threads.

It is an open secret in NYC.

No such thing nowadays.

In theater circles, ha ha.

Do you really think it wouldn't come out on TMZ or the Daily Mail? Please.

A big age gap = doom?

Please tell Chris Evans

DP. This might be true in America (although I personally think you’re being optimistic) but movies are also made with an eye to the international box office and I don’t think it is remotely true globally. If he comes out his career will not be the same. However, maybe he doesn’t care about that anymore at his age.

Their youngest is 18, clearly only stayed together for the kids!!

OP here. Yeah, I was thinking that too. I wonder if he'll come out? I'm rooting for him if that's the case. I found out my dad was gay after he passed away and I remain really sad that he never got to live his life fully and authentically.

What? Why would you think he's gay?

He loves musicals and broadway.

A random source, I know, but Sarah from Lainey Gossip put it very well:

"People are going to have a lot of opinions about this, because people have always had a lot of opinions about Hugh Jackman’s marriage and what it may or may not be protecting about Hugh himself. Just a reminder—a conversation about systemic forces that pressure people into maintaining certain public personas is one thing, a conversation about a specific person’s life when that person has not made any public statements about any facet of their identity is something else entirely. People, even famous ones, have the right to tell their truths when and how they choose."

Just the rumors for years. Obviously I have no first-hand knowledge.

Go on a mission to find out.

Which is why hardly any famous and successful people stay married. If you don’t have to constantly compromise, why do it?
Ans I don’t think the human species is very good at monogamy.

Because divorcing for the sake of sleeping around is selfish and terrible for your children and their formative ideas of family/stability?
