Hugh Jackman's wife of almost 20 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, has a special request from his husband: "The Wolverine" star can reportedly work with other female co-stars including Ashley Judd and Scarlett Johansson except for Angelina Jolie.
The couple recently appeared in Australia's "Today" show to discuss the fundraising event for Adopt Change, an organization set up to speed up adoption process founded by Furness. "Today" host Lisa Wilkinson asked how the couple takes the actor's kissing scenes, to which Jackman's 59-year-old wife candidly replied, "I've told his agent he's not allowed to work with Angelina, I'm sure she's lovely," Furness joked. She then discussed how Jolie helped the world aid and the organization.
Jackman and Furness is reportedly one of Australia's golden couples. Jackman wife's claimed that she and her husband have stayed together this long because they agreed not to be apart from each other for over two weeks. She also shared that Jackman is a good joker, which is one of their secrets to their lasting relationship, according to Daily Mail.
"That's the deal with this business. If you get it right, if you pick the right partner, then, you traverse all those travails and challenges," Furness added.
The couple credits their success of staying together for many years to putting family and marriage first. Helping other people is also the duo's goal as they continue to serve their founded organization for adoption. Jackman and his wife share two adopted children, Oscar, 14, and Ava, 9.
