Hugh Jackman: Family cards are precious

15th June 2012

Hugh Jackman has misplaced some of his most prestigious film awards - but knows "exactly" where all of his Father's Day cards are.

The Hollywood actor raises a son and a daughter with his wife Deborra-Lee Furness. Hugh cherishes his family time away from the spotlight - preferring to relish sentimental things over his fame and success.

"The best is a handwritten card. I don't know where some of my awards are, but I can tell you exactly where those cards are. I treasure them most," he told Parade.com.

"I am pretty spoilt on Father's Day. I get a lot of home cooking, which is great. My wife is an amazing cook. And my son is actually an amazing cook, too. So I always get a fair bit of cooking on Father's Day."

Hugh was recently handed a prize for his Broadway work. The Wolverine star thought Deborra-Lee had gone for a toilet break, but instead she took to the stage to present him with a special gong at the Tony Awards in New York City.

Hugh is still flabbergasted by his wife's bold actions.

"I had absolutely no idea. I'm in shock. I thought that she was going to miss it because she was going to the bathroom. So I was like, 'Oh, c'mon.' And she hates public speaking. This is a minor miracle that happened," he laughed.
