Hugh Jackman married Deborra-Lee Furness in April 1996. The two adopted two children, a son named Oscar and a daughter named Ava, after the couple realized they could not have biological children of their own.
Jackman said for Parade:
“We always wanted kids. I was brought up in a family with five kids, two were adopted, three biological. It was a natural mix to me. Deb felt that way too.”
Hugh went on to say:
“We thought we’d have a couple of biological children and maybe one adopted. But biologically, we couldn’t have kids, so that didn’t happen.”
In another interview, he said:
“From the moment we started the adoption process, all the anxiety went away. I don’t think of them as adopted – they’re our children.”

Deborra confirmed that she and Hugh adopted Maximilian because she previously suffered two miscarriages. She explained:
“It’s like this, we had some miscarriages and we tried, we did the IVF and we were always going to, we wanted to have a child and adopt a child.”
The actress added:
“And then when we went to, oh well we’ll just adopt first, it was like what were we worried about, and it was it just happened so it was no big deal.”
Furness founded Adopt Change in Australia. The organization aims to provide every child access to a safe and stable family upbringing. They also work towards improving adoption programs and raising awareness of the issues of vulnerable kids.
She also tries to remove the stigma surrounding adoption. Deborra said for News:
“I had one incident. My son is mixed race and I was standing in a park with him and someone said: ‘Oh, is he adopted?’ in a kind of whisper.”
Furness continued:
“And I snapped back: ‘Yes, he’s adopted!’”

In a 2009 interview with Barbara Walters, he said:
“When we went first to talk to someone in Los Angeles about adoption, I remember, they said, ‘What do you want?’ I said, ‘Well, healthy would be good.’”
He went on to say:
“And they said, ‘Well, what about the race?’ We’d ticked mixed race.”
Jackman tries to give his children a solid education.
He once said:
“I’m going to be tougher on you than I would be if I wasn’t famous, because people are actually going to be less tough on you in life.”
