Sutton Foster made a solo red carpet appearance over the weekend — and didn’t stick around for questions.

The actress attended the 69th Annual Drama Desk Awards on Sunday in a sequined cutout gown and black open-toe heels to match.

The Younger star, who was nominated for Outstanding Lead Performance in a Musical for Once Upon a Mattress, completed her look with a slicked-back bun and drop earrings.

The 50-year-old made a swift exit from the red carpet after posing for smiling snaps, avoiding questions from reporters, the Daily Mail claimed.

Foster’s rep has yet to respond to request for comment.

Her boyfriend, Hugh Jackman, was notably absent from the New York City photo opportunity.

Foster, instead, posed for photos with her co-star Michael Urie.

The Broadway star’s outing comes as Jackman’s ex Deborra Lee Furness seemingly took aim at Foster’s romance with the actor in a statement to the Daily Mail.

The 69-year-old told the outlet about experiencing a “traumatic … betrayal” last week.

“I believe in a higher power and that God/the universe, whatever you relate to as your guidance, is always working FOR us,” Furness added. “This belief has helped me navigate the breakdown of an almost three-decade marriage.”

Jackman, notably, separated from Furness in 2023 after 27 years of marriage — amid rumours of an affair with Foster, his Music Man co-star.

Furness’ friend Amanda de Cadenet co-signed the infidelity speculation in a November 2024 social media comment.

While Jackman, 56, has yet to react to Furness’ recent diss, the Wolverine star’s childhood pal Gus Worland addressed Furness’ statement on Ben Fordham Live last week.

“It’s not just that statement, but the last couple of years have been difficult,” he said.

Worland added that Jackman has been “moving on with his life,” referencing his relationship with Foster.

The pair went public with their romance in January and have moved in together, according to a new report.

Foster was previously married to Ted Griffin, with whom she shares an 8-year-old daughter named Emily.
