In September 2023, notable Australians from Hollywood like Hugh Jackman and
Deborra-Lee Furness
shared their choice to conclude their marital journey after sharing 27 years together.
In May 2025, Deborra-Lee formally initiated the divorce proceedings, according to a source who told
Daily Mail
That “An agreement has been made that Deborra finds satisfactory, including a generous alimony payment.”
There was considerable discussion about this financial arrangement, but ultimately, [Deborra] received what she felt she was entitled to. As a result, both parties will emerge from this situation with solid finances.
The following step in the divorce process is for the judge to approve it.
Hugh Jackman’s long-time buddy, Aussie TV and radio host Gus Worland, has recently addressed the separation, mentioning it was “tough” to witness their union unraveling.
“No one wishes for others to experience what they’ve endured, particularly since they end up going through everything under public scrutiny due to their status and the level of fame they possess,” he stated to Ben Fordham.

One aspect I’ve always been quite firm about, not only for myself but also for many friends who appreciate both, is allowing [them] to follow their own path. Nobody desires otherwise.
I was recently in New York with Jacko, and he’s doing great. Everything is progressing smoothly.
He’s progressing with his life.
, and I hope Deb does too.
They spent more than three decades together, which is an awful lot of time, and they have two wonderful children.
After Deb released her personal statement, where she mentioned, “My heart and empathy go out to all those who have endured the harrowing experience of betrayal. This pain runs deep but I hold onto faith in a greater force; whether one calls it God or the universe, whichever guiding principle resonates with each individual, I trust this entity works for our benefit,” Gus’ remarks followed suit.
She went on, “This conviction has assisted me in dealing with the collapse of my nearly thirty-year-long marriage. This journey has granted me significant insight and understanding. Despite facing what seems like hardship, it is guiding us towards our ultimate fulfillment and genuine destiny.”
It might be painful, but ultimately going back to being true to oneself and adhering to one’s integrity, values, and limits leads to emancipation and liberty.
Deb concluded her statement by revealing “the one thing” she had learned: “None of this is personal.” She went on to say, “We are each on our own separate paths, and I think the connections we have in life aren’t coincidental.”
We are attracted to individuals who enter our lives so that we can learn essential lessons and acknowledge and mend the fragmented aspects within us…I continue to feel thankful.
The initial announcement of their separation was made through a shared statement distributed to
People Magazine
, stating this would be their sole comment on the issue.
“We feel incredibly fortunate to have shared nearly thirty years of our lives as husband and wife in this amazing, affectionate marriage,” they stated.
Our path is changing as we’ve chosen to go our separate ways in order to foster our personal development.
Our clan remains and forever shall remain our foremost concern. We approach this new phase infused with thankfulness, affection, and benevolence.
We sincerely value your comprehension in honoring our privacy as our family goes through this transition together.
Out of profound mutual respect, we’ve made the decision to conclude our marriage. We ask for understanding and space as we navigate this period.
