Hugh Jackman 'expected to remarry quickly' after split from wife of 27 years

Hugh Jackman reportedly already has his hopes set on finding love again following his split from ex-wife Deborra-Lee.

After 27-years together the couple called it quits, but it seems Hugh hasn't given up on love just yet. Sources revealed that one of the X-Men star's "biggest priorities" is "finding love again." They said: "Everyone expects Hugh will remarry fairly quickly.

"He’s such a soft-hearted person and is likely to fall for the first girl who catches his eye, there’s a freeway of ladies lined up around the block to date him," a source said.

Hugh has also been hanging out with a new group of friends, including Taylor Swift and Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner, who is currently going through her divorce from estranged husband Joe Jonas. The trio, along with Hugh's Deadpool co-star Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively, were spotted at the earlier this week.

It's thought that the group were cheering on Taylor's new rumoured love interest Travis Kelce. The pair's alleged romance has made headlines as the Blank Space singer brought her squad along to watch his games.

Meanwhile Hugh seems to be around the right people if he plans on finding love again. The hopeless romantic fell head over heels for his ex-wife after the pair met in 1995. It took Hugh only four months to propose and less than a year after meeting, the two said their vows at their wedding.

Hugh and Deborra-Lee faced pregnancy complications early on and suffered miscarriages. Eventually, they were able to welcome their son Oscar Maximilian into the world in 2000. In 2005, the pair's daughter Ava Eliot was born and the pair adopted her.

The ex-couple released an official statement last month announcing their split and acknowledging the wholesome parts of their marriage. They told PEOPLE : "We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth."

According to Hugh and Deborra-Lee, they are focusing on their family at this time. They explained: "We undertake 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."
