Broadway Affair; Hugh Jackman's Love Story with Sutton Foster Amid Divorce from Deborra-Lee Furness
Hugh Jackman’s romantic relationship with fellow Broadway star Sutton Foster is reportedly at the center of his recent divorce from ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness. Sources claim that Jackman and Foster’s affair, which allegedly began during their collaboration in the 2022 Broadway revival of “The Music Man,” played a significant role in the split. Jackman, 56, announced his separation from Furness, 68, in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage.
Gossip blogger Tasha Lustig stirred the pot by indicating that Jackman “blindsided” Furness, who eventually liked Lustig’s post on Instagram, suggesting she was aware of the rumors regarding her husband’s infidelity. Insiders noted that many in the Broadway community were aware of the relationship, stating, “Sutton and Hugh’s relationship is the reason Hugh and Deb got divorced,” confirming that there was an affair with “overlap” during their marriages.
Both Jackman and Foster started divorce proceedings recently; Foster filed for divorce from her husband, screenwriter Ted Griffin, shortly before the romance became public. The theater world buzzed with claims that the affair was “Broadway’s worst-kept secret,” and a source close to Foster revealed that they are now happily together.
Jackman and Foster reportedly continue to keep their relationship somewhat private, primarily for the sake of their children from previous marriages, but insiders say the couple is eager to share their happiness publicly. “Hugh’s whole image is that he’s the nicest guy in Hollywood, so he doesn’t know what to do with this,” a source remarked.
Fans and friends of the couple have expressed shock over the developments, particularly regarding Jackman’s seemingly sudden shift from a long-term marriage to a new relationship, emphasizing the emotional toll such discoveries have had on Furness.
