    “[I learned] that I'm strong and resilient,” she told People at the Force of Nature: The Dry 2 screening in New York. “And that I — we are all a constant evolution.”

    “It is kind of exciting," the actor said when The Daily Telegraph asked her about her future in a separate interview.

    “You know what, change, transition, evolution is a little frightening and we are all a bit scared of it, but I think it is probably our greatest gift," she added.

    It also looks like Deborra-lee and Hugh have stayed on great terms despite the split. People reports that she even helped him ring in his 55th birthday last year. They reportedly celebrated with Hugh's friends and family members in New York City.

    Meanwhile, Hugh hasn't had much to say about their split, which shouldn't come as a surprise — they said their divorce announcement would be their only comment! But if he does make any comments of his own, we'll be sure to let you know.
