Later, Hugh took to Instagram to thank every one of his fans, followers and supporters who’d encouraged him through the years.
“On this occasion, I am reminded that I share the incredible honour with my parents, my siblings, my friends and, especially, with Deb, Oscar and Ava. There are countless teachers, coaches and mentors who have taught and inspired me along the way. I will forever be in their debt. It is humbling to be amongst so many great Australians who have outstanding achievements in so many fields. Thank you to the Governor General (sic),” Hugh wrote along with a post on his social media account.
