Hugh Jackman gets the VIP treatment as his doorman holds his umbrella while he leaves his home in rainy New York City

He’s one of the biggest stars in Hollywood.

And Hugh Jackman certainly received VIP treatment as he left his home in New York City on Tuesday.

The Australian actor, 52, wore a face mask while a doorman held his umbrella as he walked to his car in the rain.

Hugh kept things casual in a black sweater with the words ‘Laughing Man’ written on the front, and matching pants.

He wore a pair of blue sneakers and held a leather duffle bag in one hand and a bottle of water in the other.

Hugh has been self-isolating in New York with his wife, Deborra-lee Furness, and their two children, Oscar and Ava.

The family-of-four have been based in the Big Apple for years.

But the Greatest Showman star is said to be contemplating a move back home to Sydney’s Bondi Beach, where he owns a $6million property. 

‘Hugh has privately considered a move back for years, but he never followed through with it because he has such a good life in the States,’ a source told New Idea.

‘Besides his career, there’s a solid support network and he and Deb are now die-hard New Yorkers. They love the spirit of the Big Apple, plus the pace and excitement of being in a city that never sleeps.’

Despite this, Hugh is reportedly missing having the beach at his backdoor and still feels attached to the laid-back lifestyle in Australia.

He also wants to be closer to his extended family, and believes that moving back to Australia would give him the opportunity to boost the local film industry.
