However, many fans now know Hugh for his starring role on the comedy drama series, Five Bedrooms as Lachlan Best alongside other well-known actors including Stephen Peacocke and Doris Younane.
Other than his acting career, Hugh is living his life to the fullest – going on epic cruises – which he recently performed on, travelling around Europe and partying with his friends.
But Hugh’s trip to Israel in October 2023 saw him narrowly escape a Hamas terrorist attack. Hugh hid with his friends in a stairwell, waiting out the attacks.
Hugh has safely fled Israel.

“We were at a BBQ yesterday with young people who are now on their way to Gaza to fight. My heart breaks, I’m in the stairwell.”
He then shared distressing videos of sirens going off and the deserted streets of Israel while he “desperately” waited to catch a taxi to the airport and flee the country.
Hugh safely arrived in Athens, Greece but he confessed to Nine Entertainment that it was difficult to leave behind all the people he met during his visit.
“I feel sad I’m not there, I feel guilty for getting out but I knew what we had to do but it’s really hard thinking about all the wonderful people that we met and how dramatically their lives have changed in one day,” he said.
The Israeli foreign ministry has said at least 700 Israelis have been killed and more than 2,000 have been injured in the attacks.
