It's nice to read that Hugh Jackman is a good man. I was worried when I started reading the article.

I understand his marriage went to shit in an unflattering way, but I've never heard anything to imply he's something worse than a cheater, and even then you never know what really led a marriage to unravel or over what timeline.

Isn't he a member of some strange sect?

X-Men

Maybe, LOL? I have heard gossip about his divorce, and the culty stuff is new to me, but you're the second person to mention it.

My brother has been with his wife 18 years. She stopped sleeping with him a decade ago. They went to counseling, she said it was a waste of time. He travels a lot... He started to find his own fun.

She's not evil, she's not cheating. She's mega depressed and won't get help.

Obviously there's LOT more to this story I'm not sharing, but these are the pertinent bits.

I think this is a great illustration that life is complicated. They obviously still love each other enough to stay together. There is so much more to a relationship than sex. If he's getting his needs met and they can make it work, I won't judge. It's disappointing she won't get help but sometimes people need to hit rock bottom before they're ready to accept help.

Yeah, just because your personal life gets complicated at some point, it doesn't make you a monster. Some of the kindest, most open-hearted people I know are also the biggest, messiest drama-royalty you will ever see. Hell, the two may even go together since they both involve processing big feelings.

He did sing happy birthday at Rupert Murdoch's birthday party.... So there's that. Apparently they're in the same "school"/cult

I have bad news

What's the TL:DW? Or some other article that I can read?

I feel like holywood is like version of human trafficking.

Wasn't the whole Harvey Weinstein deal exactly that?

Pretty sure Hollywood was built off teenage girls manipulated into trying to be stars.

Not just Hollywood, Showbiz in general. Dan Schneider ruined so many child star lives at Nickelodeon.

I haven't been able to find a copy of it, but Kirby Dick's documentary Open Secret is about exactly this.

It definitely is...

I feel like there's a powerful pox placed on men who's first name ends in 'ey' (rey, vey) and last name ends in stein (Wein, Ep)

Careful, the Anti Defamation League will be after you!

She should have a chat with Larry "Laurence" Fishburne about his time on the set of "Apocalypse Now"
