“It is a very sad day for our family,” he wrote in the caption. “Dali, our beloved Frenchie, passed away last night. He would have been 12 next month…which I am told is a long life for this breed. I always, always called him the ROCKSTAR.

‘Because he was! He marched to the beat of his own drum, loved the world over, and boy did he have a good life. We will miss him but know he howls in heaven, rules the roost and enjoys the all-you-can-eat buffet. RIP Dali Rockstar Jackman. We love you!’

Hugh and his wife Deborra-Lee adopted Dali back in 2010, while Allegra was an early Christmas present for the Australian actor in 2014.

The Broadway star regularly shares pup updates with her 30million followers on Instagram, and previously joked that his four-legged companions are “a lot more famous” than him.

He previously said: “My dogs are way more famous than me! When I post something about my dogs, it blows up. I was doing a play and fans came to the theater – but it wasn’t for me! I took the puppy to the theater and the fans said ‘when is the dog coming?’ They came to see the puppy.”

“They didn’t take care of me! And I understand you are much more interesting than me!’ the star quipped.
