‘Disappointed' Hugh Jackman ‘Blindsided' By Ex-Wife's Comments, ‘Source' Claims
Hugh Jackman reportedly expressed disappointment after reading the new statement given by his ex-wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, on their separation. The former couple officially filed for divorce on May 23. The filing comes two years after they ended their 27-year-long marriage in September 2023.
Although Furness gave no comments on the matter during their separation, she recently released a statement, taking a jab at her estranged husband. A source recently told Daily Mail that the Marvel star felt 'blindsided' after reading Furness' statement.
Hugh Jackman's ex-wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, recently released a statement on their separation. According to the Daily Mail, the statement read, 'It's a profound wound that cuts deep.' It continued, 'However I believe in a higher power and that God/the universe… is always working FOR us.' She also expressed her 'compassion' for those who have 'traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal.'
An insider told the Daily Mail that Jackman felt 'extremely disappointed after reading what his ex had said.' The person added that 'there was no stipulation that she could not address this.' However, there was reportedly 'an unwritten understanding that she would not trash him to the press.'
The source also stated, 'She got around this by not naming him – instead focusing on how she felt.' The person then talked about how Furness finally landed a stage where the actor could finally file for divorce since the ex-couple parted ways back in 2023. The insider claimed, 'Hugh knows that he cannot change anything.' Moreover, the individual said that it has been 'unfortunate that Deb feels the way she did given the fact that he caved in to all of her divorce requests.'
Previously, Deborra-Lee Furness stated her concerns for her former spouse in a statement to New Idea. As per the source, she expressed feeling 'genuinely worried' that Hugh Jackman is 'moving way too fast' in his relationship with Sutton Foster.

Tim Miller Dishes On the ‘X-Men' Horror Movie He Almost Made
Slowly, but surely, Marvel's making moves to bring the X-Men to the big screen again in the next few years. As everyone waits to find out what all that entails (and who it'll involve), filmmaker Tim Miller looked back on the one he nearly did once upon a time. During a recent interview with the Hollywood Reporter, the Deadpool director talked about Marvel's mutant corner as the company's 'secret weapon. […] The X-Men are my favorite characters, and I wrote to Kevin Feige like, 'If there was anything you'd ever let me do in the Marvel universe, the X-Men would be it.'' In fact, he had an X-film in development at one point, which would've been based on Chris Claremont and John Byrne's Uncanny X-Men #143. In that, the team departs the mansion for the holidays, leaving Kitty Pryde on her own. While left to her own devices, an N'Garai—demons the team previously fought over the years—invades the mansion, and she's got to hold her own against it. Miller described the film as 'Home Alone meets Alien,' and it seems this was the Kitty solo movie Fox announced back in 2018 that he would've directed from a script by comics scribe Brian Michael Bendis. (At the time, Kitty was part of the Guardians of the Galaxy as Star-Lord during Bendis and Valerio Schiti's 2015-2017 run). Unfortunately, this was in development at Fox around the time of its merger with Disney, so it was one of many ideas—along with publicized solo films for Gambit and Multiple Man, plus a hopeful Fantastic Four crossover—which never came to cinematic fruition. X-Men movies were typically action affairs, but Fox let the characters dip into horror with New Mutants. It was the last franchise movie of the Fox era, but once they've properly settled into the MCU, maybe they can be taken for a scary spin again. Either way, Miller seems to be happy with how everything's settled: he called himself 'the luckiest nerd on the planet' for bringing a proper Deadpool to the silver screen, and feels things have gone up from there. 'I didn't expect to have my own studio, or to do Terminator: Dark Fate,' he told THR. 'Being able to do Love Death + Robots is probably my achievement I'm most of. I'm old, but I'm not done yet.'

King Charles Hits Back at Harry by Cozying Up to David Beckham
The royal family knows that a well-crafted picture speaks volumes. King Charles' invitation for David Beckham to appear alongside him at the Chelsea Flower Show on Monday is a very clear rebuff to his son, coming just days after reports that Meghan and Harry had sought to build ties with Beckham's son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz, the daughter of billionaire MAGA investor Nelson Peltz. Brooklyn Beckham, like Harry, has fallen out with his birth family (English-born soccer player David and his wife Victoria, the designer formerly known as Posh Spice) in a highly publicized feud. Sources have said that Brooklyn believes he is suffering from 'generational trauma' in language that will be familiar to those who have followed Harry and Meghan's very public argument with the Windsors. The parallels between the Beckham and Sussex family feud don't stop there: Meghan and Nicola have been blamed in some quarters for having turned once-favored sons against their families. It emerged last week that Brooklyn and Nicola had dinner with Harry and Meghan recently, and are said to be offering their support to the couple. Well, it now appears David has some support of his own: the king and queen. Beckham was warmly greeted by Charles and Camilla on the opening day of the high-profile Chelsea Flower Show in London, and the king asked if Beckham had received a 50th birthday gift of a rose bush that he and his wife sent him. 'You got it, didn't you?' Charles asked, according to the Daily Mail. Beckham replied: 'It was incredible! Thank you, it was very kind.' Last week, as the rumors gathered pace about a Brooklyn/Harry team up, Kate Middleton stepped out in a chic Victoria Beckham dress, clearly showing which side she is on. Beckham and Harry once shared a strong friendship; Beckham was seen as a good influence on Harry in his wilder days and they had several nights out, with William, in happier days. However, their relationship reportedly soured when Harry and Meghan accused David and Victoria Beckham of leaking stories about them to the media. The Beckhams strongly denied these accusations.

Harry Hates the Royals So Much He Nearly Changed His Name
Prince Harry's family feud takes a new twist In a stunning sign of the depth of the estrangement between Prince Harry and the Royal Family, it has emerged that the Duke of Sussex seriously considered dropping his royal surname in favor of his late mother's maiden name, Spencer. Sources told the Daily Mail that Harry raised the idea during a trip last year to the United Kingdom for the funeral of his uncle, Robert Fellowes. During the visit, Harry stayed at the Althorp Estate with his maternal uncle, Charles Spencer, the ninth Earl Spencer and brother of the late Princess Diana. Spencer famously delivered a confrontational speech condemning the royals at her funeral in which he referred to Harry and William as her 'blood family.' According to the Daily Mail's well-connected social columnist, Richard Eden, Harry reportedly sought advice on legally changing his surname from Mountbatten-Windsor to Spencer, a move that would have amounted to a very symbolic severing of ties with the House of Windsor. While the report says that Spencer talked Harry down and the idea is not expected to go any further, the fact that Harry seriously explored it underscores the ongoing toxicity of his relationship with the royal family, particularly his father, King Charles; his brother, Prince William; and his stepmother, Queen Camilla. According to a friend of the duke cited by the Mail, 'They had a very amicable conversation and Spencer advised him against taking such a step.' The friend added that Earl Spencer pointed out the legal and symbolic hurdles, warning that such a move would not only be complex but would likely deepen already raw tensions with Harry's family of origin. Had the change gone through, it could have affected not only Harry's public identity but also the names of his children, Archie and Lilibet, both of whom currently use the surname Mountbatten-Windsor—a hybrid of the Queen's family name and that of Prince Philip, who adopted the Mountbatten name upon becoming a British subject in 1947. Had Harry moved forward with a surname change, his daughter, Princess Lilibet, whose middle name honors Diana, would have become Princess Lilibet Diana Spencer. Such a gesture would have been particularly painful to King Charles, who holds the Mountbatten legacy in high regard. Louis Mountbatten, the first Earl Mountbatten of Burma, was a beloved mentor to Prince Philip. The Queen and Prince Philip decided in 1960 to designate Mountbatten-Windsor as the family name for their direct descendants. In his memoir Spare, and in numerous high-profile interviews since, Harry has laid bare what he sees as the coldness and dysfunction at the heart of the royal household. His allegations have included neglect, press manipulation, and emotional cruelty—claims that have harmed the Windsors' carefully curated public image and fractured personal relationships behind palace doors. Names and titles are a fraught issue for Harry and Meghan Markle. The couple were granted the Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles by Queen Elizabeth on their wedding day in 2018, and their children were officially recognized as Prince and Princess following Charles's accession to the throne. But their ongoing use of royal titles has often been called hypocritical. Harry's office has been approached for comment. Markle 'steps back' from her weird jam business The unfathomable and chaotic progress of Meghan Markle's branding empire continued this week with a bizarre interview with Fast Company magazine in which she implied she might not restock her online As Ever store anytime soon. Fast Company makes much of the fact that As Ever products such as jam and flower sprinkles sold out in 45 minutes, without making the very obvious point that a) this is an easy outcome to engineer by not having much stock and b) not having anything available for your customers to buy when you have momentum is generally considered bad business. Incredibly, it appears Meghan now 'wants to take a step back' from the logistically complex business of actually selling stuff. Already? Why, yes! Fast Company says her plan during this stepped-back phase is to 'gather data from the launch and figure out exactly what As Ever could be,' adding, 'She says she's planning to announce new products in the first quarter of 2026.' What? Meghan is quoted as saying, mysteriously: 'I want to really focus on the hospitality angle of As Ever, but as we take the learnings, we can understand what the customer's needs are seasonally.' Clears as mud? Good.
