Hollywood sparks fly: Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster together?
Even though they have not officially confirmed their relationship, it is widely suggested that Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster are becoming a new couple in Hollywood. According to recent reports, their relationship is flourishing, and they are happier than ever.
"They’re happier than ever," an insider told "Us Weekly," adding that their relationship is carefree, joyful, and based on a balance of fun and genuine admiration for each other. The couple spends time dining together at New York City restaurants and enjoying romantic walks in Central Park.
Jackman and Foster support each other in their careers. The "X-Men" star appreciates her immense talent and composed nature, while the "Younger" actress in turn admires his kindness, professionalism, and ability to make others feel valued. According to the source, both prefer to keep their relationship away from the media, allowing it to develop naturally at its own pace.
Last month, Page Six revealed that Foster filed for divorce from her husband, Ted Griffin, after 10 years of marriage. Earlier reports mentioned that she and Jackman are a couple. "They are 100 per cent together and are in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together," a source told the portal. "They spend all of their free time together. They are a regular couple, they are just in private," the source added.
Jackman and Foster bonded while performing together in the Broadway musical "The Music Man," which ran from December 2021 to January 2023. In September 2023, the star and his wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, announced their separation after 27 years of marriage. According to a Broadway insider, the split was inevitable, and Furness was absent during "The Music Man" rehearsals.
Subtle move by wife after split with Jackman
Deborra-Lee Furness caught the media's attention with her recent social media activity. The actress liked an Instagram post that sheds new light on her split from Jackman after 27 years of marriage. The 68-year-old Australian actress liked an Instagram video by blogger Tasha Lustig. The post suggested that Hugh Jackman plans to reveal his new relationship with Sutton Foster, with whom he collaborated on Broadway. The "Daily Mail" claims that Furness wanted to draw attention to the reasons for their split in this way.
Jackman and Foster have been seen together at public events, and their close relationship has been commented on by the media. In an interview with "Vogue" magazine, Foster had warm words for Jackman, calling him "incredibly kind and generous" and adding that he has become one of her best friends.
The separation of Jackman and Furness in September 2023 was a surprise to many fans. The couple, who are raising two adopted children—24-year-old Oscar and 19-year-old Ava—have always been perceived as one of the most stable marriages in Hollywood.
Although neither has directly commented on the reasons for the split, Furness's actions on social media indicate possible tensions in their relationship. Family friend Amanda de Cadenet wrote under Lustig's post: "You are on point with this one. My beloved friend Deb is about to have her glow up any moment fyi!"
