There’s always an interesting crowd at Polo Bar. But last night there was a particularly fascinating table of revelers among the power crowd, we hear.<br /><br />Page Six spies say that soon-to-be-exes Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness were at the chic Midtown hot spot, cheerfully celebrating the “Wolverine” star’s 55th birthday.<br /><br />“Very happy time [had] by all,” said a source, “Think it was good birthday.”<br /><br />Asked for comment on the former couple’s Thursday night out, a rep for Jackman told Page Six Friday morning: “Yes, it’s true. It was a lovely evening.”<br /><br />Insiders confirmed that they were joined by their kids, Oscar, 23, and Ava, 18, and “a few close friends.”<br /><br />Of course, the pair announced last month that they had decided to split after 27 years of marriage.<br /><br />(It’s perhaps worth noting that if one were keen, say, to underscore that one’s breakup is an amicable affair, see-and-be-scene Polo Bar would certainly be the place to go to for a friendly dinner to prove it.)<br /><br />loving marriage,” the former couple said in a joint statement to People last month. “Our journey now is shifting, and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.”<br /><br />Jackman, 54, and Furness, 67, continued, “Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love and kindness.<br /><br />“We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.”<br /><br />After the news was announced, sources told Page Six that Jackman was “devastated” by the breakup, but that there were going to “navigate [the split] together.”<br /><br />“He’s spoken to Deb and they’ve seen each other,” a source said. “They speak pretty regularly.”<br /><br />They added, they “are always going to be friends and navigate this together. You just can’t be married for 27 years, share two kids and suddenly stop speaking.”<br /><br />#hughjackman <br />#deborraleefurness
