The long goodbye is finally official.
After nearly two years of separation, Australian actress and director Deborra-Lee Furness has officially filed for divorce from Hollywood superstar Hugh Jackman, marking the quiet end of a 27-year marriage that once captured hearts worldwide.
According to DailyMail, the divorce filing was submitted in New York on May 23, with all major details—spousal support, child expenses, and future plans—completely ironed out behind the scenes.
And guess what? There’ll be no messy courtroom drama.
“A settlement was reached that Deborra is pleased with, which includes a handsome spousal support payment,” an insider revealed.
Even though there was reportedly “some back and forth” about finances, both parties have come out of the situation financially secure, with mutual respect and a united front for their two adopted children.
“They are amicable and fully committed to being the best parents they can be,” a separate source added.
This comes after reports in January hinted that things could turn sour due to the absence of a prenup—a risky move, especially with a fortune estimated at $250 million.
“When they got married, they thought it would be forever,” one insider shared. “At the time, neither of them expected Hugh’s career to blow up like it did.”
Now, months after fans watched the Wolverine star stroll hand-in-hand with Broadway actress Sutton Foster, Deborra-Lee has stepped forward with grace, strength, and spiritual reflection.
In an emotional statement to DailyMail, the 68-year-old addressed the heartbreak with wisdom:
“My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal… I believe in a higher power… and that even adversity is leading us to our greatest good.”
She described the end of her marriage as both painful and liberating, emphasizing growth over bitterness.
“Returning to yourself and living within your own integrity, values, and boundaries is liberation and freedom.”
And in true mature queen fashion, she dropped the final gem:
“None of this is personal. We are drawn to people to learn lessons and heal the broken parts of ourselves. I remain grateful.”
The final judgment is now only awaiting a judge’s signature.
