Hollywood star Hugh Jackman and Broadway powerhouse Sutton Foster are now out in the open. Just recently, the Wolverine star made things official on Instagram and shared a sweet post dedicated to Sutton as she performed in New York City.
The new chapter for Hugh, 57, follows the finalization of his divorce from ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness. The two were married almost three decades and were one of Hollywood’s most enduring pairs.
Why did Hugh Jackman and his Wife Separate?
The separation of Hugh and Deborra-Lee, announced in September 2023, came as a shock to fans. In their joint statement, the former lovers disclosed that they had decided to part ways “to pursue our individual growth.” They emphasized that their family, which includes their two adopted children, remains their highest priority.
However, after Hugh’s relationship with Sutton got exposed, the reports did start coming out: According to several sources, the growing closeness between Hugh and Sutton, which started while they were co-starring in the Broadway show The Music Man back in 2022, served as the major reason for his divorce. Though Hugh and Deborra-Lee’s official statement emphasized “individual growth,” the timeline has caused much discussion among the masses.
