<a href="https://vt.co/news/hugh-jackman-paparazzi-divorce-deborra-lee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hugh Jackman</a> celebrated his 55th birthday alongside his estranged wife, <a href="https://vt.co/entertainment/celebrity/hugh-jackman-deborra-lee-furness-divorce" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Deborra-Lee Furness.</a> On Friday (October 13), the X-Men star took to Instagram to share a candid photo of him at Ralph Lauren’s Polo Bar in New York City holding a drink in his hand while he posed for the shot. He was seen wearing a smart white shirt with a few buttons from the top undone giving fans a glimpse of his chest while a pair of bold frames sat tucked in the opening. His hair was slicked back and his beard remained long and rugged - a look that only a man like Jackman could pull off. "Thank you ALL for the birthday love!!! I’m reading your messages, seeing the special videos and experiencing all the feels," he wrote in the caption. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/CyVuz3VuhYD/]] Hundreds of fans took to the comments to wish the star a very happy birthday. "Happy birthday. Many blessings for you today and always," wrote one user. "Hey, we have the same birthday! Hope the year ahead is full of amazing hiking adventures! Happy trails, Hugh!" added another while a third said: "Such a beautiful human. The eyes tell it all. Hope you’ve had a wonderful evening." The star then followed the post up with another snapshot for his Instagram Stories which showed the actor enjoying a delicious-looking ice cream a teacup with the words "Happy Birthday Hugh Jackman" written along the rim of the plate. <img class="wp-image-1263233003 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/10/GettyImages-1487029118.jpg" alt="Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness " width="1024" height="683" />[[imagecaption|| Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness attend the 2023 Costume Institute Benefit celebrating "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty" in 2023.
