Hugh Jackman Gay Rumors 'Bug My Wife'; Actor Married For 17 Years

Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness married for 17 years have been surrounded with speculation regarding Jackman's sexuality.

"Just recently, it bugs her," the "Les Miserables" actor told THR. "She goes, 'It's big. It's everywhere [on the internet]!"

"X-Men" producer Lauren Shuler Donner adds, "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."

The couple met on the set of Australian television show "Corelli" and married in 1996. "I had a massive crush on her instantly. She was sort of the opposite of me. I was very 'Even Steven,' and she was thrilling to me. I was always really attracted to that - though at one point, as it was getting really serious, it terrified me."
