Hugh pointed out he and Deborra had always planned to adopt but wanted to bear fruit on their own.
"To be clear, Deb and I always wanted to adopt," Jackman said. "So that was always in our plan. We didn't know where in the process that would happen but biologically obviously we tried and it was not happening for us and it is a difficult time.
"We did IVF and Deb had a couple of miscarriages. I'll never forget it, the miscarriage thing… It happens to one in three pregnancies. But it's very, very rarely talked about. It's almost secretive, so I hope Deb doesn't mind me bringing it up now.

Jackman and Furness are now happy parents to adopted Oscar, 12, and Ava, 7, and the actor shares that fatherhood is everything – and so much more – than he ever hoped for, RadarOnline.com noted.

"You can't even explain how incredible it is and that avalanche of emotion that comes and how it opens up your heart, how it frustrates you, how it angers you, how everything is just all the sudden how alive you are as a parent."
