Deborrah-Lee Furness and Hugh Jackman
Deborra-Lee Furness, 54, has the distinction of being the wife of People magazine’s 2008 Sexiest Man Alive Hugh Jackman, 40.
Furness attended the Methodist Ladies’ College in Melbourne, Australia, and is also a graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York.
The four time FCCA Award winner met Jackman in 1995 on the set of his first television acting job in the Australian TV show “Corelli.” The two married in April 1996.
Jackman personally designed an engagement ring for Furness, and their wedding rings bore the Sanskrit inscription “Om paramar mainamar,” translated as “we dedicate our union to a greater source.”
The couple has two adopted children, Oscar Maximilian (born 15 May 2000) and Ava Eliot (born 10 July 2005). They currently live in Manhattan, NY.

Deb is not 54. She is 48 or 49.
she’s wearing the same ugly shoes in almost all the pictures… jeez
Deb was born in 1954, you do the math….she IS pushing 55.
But, what difference does it make? They seem to be happy. It’s no different than an older mand marrying a much younger woman. I am Deb’s age, and I would marry a younger man if I truly loved him.
