Hugh Jackman’s fans were distracted by ‘sad’ details in the background of the star’s latest selfie, following his split from wife Deborra-Lee Furness.
The couple, who share two children, were married for 27 years until they announced their separation last September.
Since then, Deadpool & Wolverine star Hugh, 55, has been made his base a New York City bachelor pad.
On Tuesday, he shared a picture of himself dressed up for the 2024 Met Gala, looking sharp in black tie.
‘Let’s go #MET,’ he wrote in the caption, referring to the swanky annual fundraiser he attended last year with his then-wife – but his followers couldn’t help but comment on the background of his photo.
The Oscar nominee had posed by a window he often features on social media, alongside his apartment’s blank white walls.

However, the picture revealed that he had possessions on the floor behind him, including a stack of books, bowls, an unhung picture and an exercise mat.
‘Hugh needs to furnish his apartment/townhouse. Poor guy. Looks handsome, though,’ observed @vegaslady42.
Jennifer Harris then advised: ‘There’s these places that sell side tables and wall units. I think it could really help you with lifting the vibe of the room. Oh and nice suit!’
However, others defended the actor, questioning if he was definitely leaving there fulltime as Judy Nixon suggested: ‘It’s probably his style, is this place.’
‘Don’t look now but someone stole your coffee table,’ quipped @louisajoydykstra.

The Aussie actor had previously admitted to a dishwasher ‘oops’ while finishing work on his final film as Wolverine in the UK last year.
He revealed to his followers that he was struggling with the domestic task just days after his separation was announced, when he shared a snap of his machine loaded with plastic containers and overflowing with soap suds.
Alongside Deborra-Lee, 68, he released a statement at the time, speaking of how they felt ‘blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage’.
‘Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth,’ it continued.
‘Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness.

‘We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.’
The couple adopted two now-adult children together: Oscar, 23,and Ava, 18.
Hugh’s return to the X-Men role that made him a global star, alongside co-star and real-life friend Ryan Reynolds, has caused a lot of excitement among fans.
It’s his twelfth time (depending how you count the cameos) donning the character’s sideburns, claws and rippling muscles, which the star worked hard to achieve once more – although some more cynical fans were questioning if he was in a ‘latex muscle suit’ when the trailer dropped.

However, Deadpool comic book creator Rob Liefeld was having none of these rumours, taking to X with the ultimate defence of the star.
‘Hey, I was right there in person and those massive Hugh Jackman biceps are the REAL DEAL,’ he wrote.
‘Dude was jacked!! I’ve been seeing folks talk of him wearing fake muscles… WHAT??? No. I touched em!’ the author added.
