Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness are inseparable as they board a water-taxi in Venice

Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness enjoyed another public display of affection during their latest appearance in Venice on Tuesday. 

The couple were inseparable as they posed for photos shortly after arriving at the Excelsior Hotel via water-taxi during Jackman’s promotional campaign for his new film, The Son.

Greeting onlookers with a wave, the Australian actor, 53, was in a characteristically cheerful mood as supportive wife Deborra-Lee, 66, rested her head on his shoulder.  

Jackman looked relaxed in a casual navy sports jacket and beige chinos during his latest appearance in the romantic Italian city on day six of the 79th Venice International Film Festival.

He added to his look with a simple white T-shirt, while polished leather shoes and heavily tinted sunglasses rounded off the ensemble. 

Joining her husband, Deborra-Lee paired a casual grey T-shirt with matching shorts and strappy black leather wedge heels.

Soulmates: Jackman and Deborra-Lee celebrated their 26th wedding anniversary in April

In April, Jackman wrote a gushing tribute to his wife as they celebrated their 26th wedding anniversary. 

He wrote: ‘Today I celebrate 26 years of marriage to my extraordinary wife. ‘Every single day is filled with so much laughter, joy and backgammon! Deb, you light up my life. I love you with all my heart!’

The couple married on April 11, 1996, just one year after meeting on the set of Australian drama Corelli, with Jackman saying he knew he was going to spend the rest of his life with Deborra-Lee after just two weeks.

Finishing touch: Jackman added to his look with a simple white T-shirt on Tuesday morning 

They have two adopted children: Oscar Maximilian Jackman, 21, and Ava Eliot Jackman, 16.

Jackman previously told People that the secret to their happy marriage was ‘making time for each other and ‘always learning’ from one another.

The star said they consciously ‘reset’ their marriage, which means they don’t grow apart like many longtime couples do.

‘We’re always learning and humans change so you have to, you gotta reset all the time,’ he said.

‘I’m always reeling in how funny she is and how amazing she is and how smart she is. The longer it goes on the better it gets.’

The Greatest Showman actor told NBC’s Today show last year that their marriage ‘doesn’t feel like work’.

He said: ‘People often say, “Oh my god, marriage is so much work.” There are some things you’ve got to live by, but it doesn’t feel like that

‘It’s been one of the best things in my life,’
