Hugh Jackman’s ex Deborra-Lee Furness reportedly ‘suspicious’ of co-star Sutton Foster before split
Deborra-Lee Furness reportedly had concerns about Hugh Jackman and his co-star Sutton Foster, who is now his rumoured new girlfriend.
Deborra-Lee Furness reportedly had concerns about Hugh Jackman’s relationship with his Broadway co-star Sutton Foster ahead of their split in 2023.
In the wake of the actor’s rumoured new romance with Sutton comes reports Furness had her “suspicions” about the co-stars when they worked together on the 2022 musical, The Music Man – just one year before the Aussie couple announced their separation after 27 years of marriage.
“Deborra-Lee had her suspicions when Hugh started working with Sutton,” a source told the Daily Mail. “Their relationship is not a secret to her.”
The source added that Furness, 68, “wants to be left out of the narrative” as she has no plans to “speak against” Jackman, 58, who is the father of their children Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19.
“When they divorced, they agreed to keep everything that happened during their marriage private,” the source added.
Last week, Foster, 49, filed for divorce from her Ocean’s Eleven screenwriter husband Ted Griffin, 53, after 10 years of marriage.
The actress and Griffin were married in Santa Barbara in 2014 and adopted their daughter Emily in 2017.
‘Time has passed for Hugh to mourn his divorce and now Sutton is over her relationship, they are getting closer to making it official,” the source added.
According to multiple reports, Foster and Jackman formed a connection when they starred together on the Broadway musical, which ran from December 2021 to January 2023.
It’s believe the pair are now “in love” but have been keeping their romance a secret. Although they are careful to stay out of the public eye, they’re reportedly inseparable.
“They spend all of their free time together,” a source told Page Six. “They are a regular couple, they are just in private.”
“They are 100 per cent together and are in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together,” another source previously told the outlet.
“They go out of their way to hide it, but it’s common knowledge.”
