Hugh Jackman's wife Deborra-Lee Furness upset with his gay rumours

Upset with rumours stating that he is gay, 44-year-old Hugh Jackman said that more than him, it's his wife of 16 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, who is most hurt.

ABC News reported Hugh Jackman as saying, "Just recently, it bugs her. She goes: 'It's big. It's everywhere!" The rumour is obviously nothing more than a product of some wilful imaginations.

Speaking about Jackman, X-Men producer Lauren Schuler Donner said, "I have seen him with Deborra since the beginning of their trip to Hollywood, and I've been on five movie sets with him and have never seen him stray, have never seen him eye anyone," she told the Hollywood Reporter. "I met him when he did 'Oklahoma!' [at London's Royal National Theatre in 1999]. He was genuine, hugely talented. He was in love with his wife that day and still is." Let's hope these wild rumours come to an end soon and Deborra is able to breathe a sigh of relief.
