Hugh Jackman Covers 'Town & Country' October 2013

Hugh Jackman wears his bowtie undone on the cover of Town & Country magazine’s October 2013 issue, on newsstands September 17.

Here’s what the 44-year-old actor had to share with the mag:

On waiting to propose to his wife Deborra-Lee Furness: “I decided, I won’t ask her to marry me for six months. Then after four months I thought, That’s the most ridiculous rule!”

Deborra-Lee on Hugh’s many looks: “I like him clean-shaven. But I like him all ways: chubby, muscley, skinny. I’m always having affairs.”

Hugh on creating National Adoption Awareness Week: “I’m working with Americans to create an international campaign to shine a light on the fact that there are 153 million orphans in the world. If that were a country, it would be the ninth-largest in the world, just ahead of Russia.”
