Hugh Jackman's Wife Evasive About His Sexuality

Deborra-Lee Furness gave a quick interview to the NY Post. She talked about how she has been shoved out of the way by people desperate to see her husband and that despite her being older than Hugh that Hugh is much more mature than her. To their credit, the Post did ask her a tough question and asked her about the speculation of Hugh's sexuality. I don't understand her answer. “The line I heard was, ‘Wolverine? Who would have thought?’ Hugh and I don’t pay much heed. It’s kind of tragic that these people have nothing better to do than gossip about people they don’t know.”

What kind of answer is that? She obviously did not even have to answer the question and could have just said it is private. She did answer though and I'm not sure if she is saying they don't pay much heed to the speculation or if this is a denial or just something for everyone to discuss today. What do you think she meant?
