Furness may have split from Jackman, but she reportedly still loves her ex, with whom she has been married for over 27 years and shares two children.
According to reports, the actress found it “very scary” to “go after life” without the “X-Men” star by her side. However, “leaning on his job” has made things easier for Furness and has been his “saving grace”.
A source added: “It’s very scary to go on with life without Hugh, she still loves him even though she knows their romance is over.”
They continued, “It’s every emotion every day. Happy, sad, angry, confused – and he’s also deliberately trying to forget it even though it’s over [sometimes], whatever makes him feel better at the moment. He’s taking it day by day but don’t feel too bad for him. She is also a very strong woman and will get through it.”
The source told the news outlet that despite how challenging the breakup has been for Furness, she’s still “excited” to find “love again.”

The insider further told the publication that Furness has found other ways to manage the heartbreak she feels over her breakup with Jackman. They noted that the actress is now leaning on her work as a “saving grace” as she navigates being single again.
“He’s taking things slow and steady but trying to embrace his new normal,” the source said. “Instead of romance, she has leaned on work as her saving grace as she moves forward with life without Hugh.”
They added, “She’s eager and excited, along with apprehensive, to dive into relationships and love again. She needs to find herself again, and then everything will fall into place. It’s going to take some time but she’s getting healthy every day.”
During their long marriage, Jackman and Furness were known to be very private about their love lives. Since announcing their split, the two have not made any other public comments about their relationship status. However, previous reports claimed that Jackman was also having trouble getting single again after the end of his marriage to Furness.

In September 2023, Jackman and Furness opened up about the reasons behind their decision to part ways, stating that it was amicably.
“We have been blessed to share almost three decades as husband and wife in a beautiful and loving marriage. Our journey has now changed and we have decided to separate in order to continue our individual growth,” the former couple said in a joint statement.
They continued, “Our family has been and always will be our priority. We live this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness. We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.”
The ex-lovers concluded by signing “Deb and Hugh Jackman” while emphasizing that this would be the only statement either of them would make regarding the end of their marriage.
While it remains unclear what may have caused their split, it has been claimed that the COVID-19 pandemic strained their relationship, especially during the lockdown.
A source said of the couple, “They tried and couldn’t get it back…..Hugh found things didn’t have the same magic they once had. Deb has the same concerns and thoughts, and separating is the best option.”

He said: “She took off her seat belt, and she turned around and held out her hand and took off her sunglasses and said, ‘Hi, I’m Deborra-lee Furness; nice to meet you.’ I remember thinking, ‘I like this girl.
A year after they met, the lovers tied the knot. Their wedding took place on April 11, 1996, and they became one of the most cherished couples in Hollywood.
