“It was difficult at the time. One_of_the_main_things I remember is this terrible feeling of people_talking_about_you_and_looking_at_you, because it was strange for my mother to leave. For years I thought it wouldn’t last forever, so I clung to it. Until I was about 12 or 13, I thought that mom and dad would get_back_together… Realizing_that it wasn’t_going_to_happen was probably_the_hardest_time to_be_honest,” Jackman admitted .

And then you add five children and the fact_that_she_emigrated from England and there was no support for her here.
