Secrets of Hugh Jackman’s new celebrity romance

“They spend all their free time together”: Sources say the Aussie star and his new girlfriend are “in love” but keeping things private.

Now that Broadway star Sutton Foster has filed for divorce, could the actress and her rumoured new beau, Hugh Jackman, hit a red carpet together?

A source tells Page Six that Foster, 49, and The Greatest Showman star, 56, are “in love” but have been keeping their romance a secret.

But while we hear the pair have been careful to stay out of the public eye, they’re inseparable, according to sources.

“They spend all of their free time together,” says a source. “They are a regular couple, they are just in private.”

The source says that to stay under the radar, “They sneak around.”

Jackman did see Foster’s latest hit show, Once Upon A Mattress, in August.

Page Six exclusively reported that Foster filed for divorce from her husband of 10 years, Ocean’s Eleven screenwriter Ted Griffin, this week. The exes have one child together.

In December, Foster put her Tuxedo Park, New York, home on the market for $US2.2 million.

Sources had previously told Page Six that Foster and Jackman had a connection when they starred together in Broadway’s The Music Man, which ran from December 2021 to January 2023.

“They are 100 percent together and are in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together,” a source previously told Page Six.

A source recently told us, “They are still together. They go out of their way to hide it, but it’s common knowledge.”

Jackman filed for divorce from Deborra-Lee Furness, to whom he had been married for 27 years, in September 2023.

The couple, who have two children, said in a statement that they “decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.”

Foster previously told Vogue of working with Jackman, “He has an impeccable reputation of being the hardest-working man, incredibly kind, and generous — and all of that is true. He disarms everyone, and he doesn’t make anything about him.”

She even said he’d become one of her besties, telling the fashion mag of her co-star, “he’s now become one of my best friends, which was a surprise, because you usually go into these things thinking, ‘Well, I hope we get along.’ But we just spent Memorial Day with our families. It’s really fun to meet new friends after 40.”
