Hugh Jackman to Adopt Again?

Sexiest Man Alive, and possibly Sexiest Dad, Hugh Jackman and his wife Deborah-Lee Furness are reportedly considering adopting another child.

According to several reports, Hugh's wife has been wanting to expand their family for years, and Hugh loves kids so much, he really has no objection to it.

"Hugh is a big believer in adoption - not just personally, but from a world view of extending help to parentless children," said a source close to the couple.

"They are adopting another child now, and plan to welcome a fourth into their family down the road. It has become their mission."

Hugh and Deb already have two adopted children, Oscar, eight, and Ava, three. But he recently said he felt strongly about opening his home to a multi-racial child.

He said: "Mixed-race babies have such a hard time being adopted that Deb and I checked off that box specifically when we were filling out our forms.

"Our lawyer brought the form back to us and said, 'This is not the time to be politically correct. Are you sure this is what you want?' We were definite about it. Adoption is about taking a baby into your home and your heart. It's the best thing we've ever done."

Hugh seems like such an amazing dad, any child would be lucky to be adopted into this family! And kudos to him for setting a great example to other parents.
