Speculation about Hugh Jackman’s love life has been rife ever since his separation from Deborra-Lee Furness was announced in September 2023.
Now, the Aussie actor has all-but-confirmed his romance with his former Broadway co-star, Sutton Foster, as the pair were spotted hand-in-hand in photos obtained by People.
Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster starred in The Music Man together on Broadway in 2022, and at the time rumours were swirling that her marriage to Ted Griffin was on the rocks.
The actress officially filed for divorce from Ted in October 2024, and reports then emerged that Sutton and Hugh were now in a relationship together.
“They are 100 percent together and are in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together,” a source told Page Six.
“They are still together. They go out of their way to hide it, but it’s common knowledge,” the insider added.
A 2022 interview between the couple also recently resurfaced, where the alleged couple gushed over one another.
“I’m having the time of my life playing opposite this guy,” Sutton said on Seth Meyers’ Late Night Show, to which Hugh responded, “You had to say that, but thank you.”
“I did!” Sutton laughed, before adding, “But it’s like, it’s like a dream come true. Truly.”
Hugh was married to Deborra-Lee Furness for 27 years before they decided to divorce last year.
A source has told Daily Mail that Deborra-Lee has no interest in speaking on the new romance rumours.
“Deborra-Lee wants to be left out of this narrative,” the source shared. “She is not going to address this or speak against Hugh.”
A second insider also claimed that, “Time has passed for Hugh to mourn his divorce and now Sutton is over her relationship, they are getting closer to making it official.”
“Hugh still has tremendous respect for Deborra-Lee. They have kids and that is what is important to them both. The are repairing what they can, and will never talk ill about each other.”
The former couple share two children together: a 24-year-old son named Oscar Maximilian Jackman, and a 19-year-old daughter called Ava Eliot Jackman.
Meanwhile, Sutton was married to Ocean’s Eleven screenwriter Ted Griffin for nearly 10 years, and they share one seven-year-old daughter.
Prior to her relationship with Ted, Sutton was also married to American actor Christian Borle from 2006 to 2009.
