Understanding the relationship between Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster

Both Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster were married to their respective partners before they began dating.

Jackman ended his marriage of three decades to Deborra-Lee Furness in September 2023, issuing a statement in which they noted their family as their “highest priority” and requested privacy. She filed for divorce in May this year, claiming that Jackman betrayed her. The pair who wed in 1996 adopted two children – a son named Oscar and a daughter, Ava.

Foster, on the other hand, was married to screenwriter Ted Griffin until she filed for divorce in October 2024. An insider told US Weekly in November:

“Sutton and Hugh’s relationship is the reason Hugh and Deb got divorced. A lot of people on Broadway knew, and we kept it quiet because both of them are so nice and great people. Everyone respected their privacy. But there was an affair and overlap. They are really happy now.”

Foster, who is known for her work in Broadway, has shared a professional relationship with the Wolverine actor. They both starred together in the 2022 revival of The Music Man, where their onstage chemistry reportedly contributed to their offstage romance.

After months of speculation they finally confirmed their relationship in January this year. The two were seen dressed in casual attire for a dinner date in Santa Monica, California, confirmed by the People magazine. Soon after Daily Mail shared photos of the couple smooching at an In-N-Out in San Fernando.

The two have always spoken highly of each other. While speaking to People magazine at the Drama Desk Awards last year, Foster called Hugh Jackman “one of the greatest guys ever, an incredible costar.”

Recently, Hugh Jackman publicly admired his partner’s musical performance in New York. The actor posted a video of his girlfriend on Instagram, where she was standing on stage in a emerald green outfit. He captioned the post:

“Sutton Foster's performance during the holidays... what an iconic evening in New York! And truly magical.”

Later in February, a source told US Weekly that the couple are “madly in love” but are “not rushing into marriage.” They added that they “are committed to taking the next steps together.”
