Hugh Jackman’s wife dismisses gay rumors

“The line I heard was, ‘Wolverine? Who would have thought?’ Hugh and I don’t pay much heed. It’s kind of tragic that these people have nothing better to do than gossip about people they don’t know.

Deborra-Lee Furness on the continual media speculation that her husband, Hugh Jackman, is gay and that their marriage is a cover. The couple have been married since 1996. Furness is 13 years older than the 43-year-old Jackman. They have two children, both adopted. (Us Weekly)
