Hugh Jackman’s wife hates people saying she is "lucky" to have married him.
Deborra-Lee Furness – who has adopted children Oscar, 14, and Ava, nine, with the ‘Wolverine’ actor, who she married in 1996 – feels "put down" by the demeaning label.
She told Australian Woman’s Weekly magazine: "That to me is a putdown. [It’s] like you suggesting I won the chook raffle."
The 58-year-old producer also spoke of her belief that there is no such thing as luck but everyone "creates their own destiny".
She added: "If you want something, you put it out there with good intention and you realise it."
And Deborra – who campaigns for the streamlining of international adoption laws – has advised people not to judge the lives of others as it is difficult to know the "challenges" another person faces in their lives.
She said: "When people look at my life, they don’t know the challenges [I face], just like I don’t know someone else’s [challenges].
"With every privilege, comes responsibility and challenges."
Hugh, 45, has previously spoken of his love of his "beautiful, amazing" wife and how much they enjoy dates nights together.
Asked the secret of a happy marriage and family life, he once said: "Make sure you have a date night just the two of you together, without the kids.
"And don’t be afraid to tell your kids that you have no idea what you’re doing either."
