Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster: A New Chapter in Their Lives Together
It looks like Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster are embracing a fresh start together! Sources recently confirmed to Us Weekly that the two stars, aged 56 and 49, are in a happy relationship, and insiders are spilling the details on their sweet, joyful romance.
According to a close source, Hugh and Sutton enjoy spending time together doing simple things like having cozy dinners at New York restaurants, strolling through Central Park, and cheering each other on in their careers. “They’re happier than ever,” the insider shared, adding that they both understand the unique demands of their busy industry lives.
Hugh is reportedly in awe of Sutton’s amazing talent, positive energy, and down-to-earth personality. Sutton, in turn, admires Hugh’s kindness, professionalism, and the way he makes everyone around him feel special.
Their relationship, described as a mix of fun and mutual respect, is being kept low-key for now. The couple wants to let things grow naturally and enjoy this “wonderful next chapter” without too much public attention.
Rumors and Revelations
Speculation about Hugh and Sutton’s romance started when a gossip blogger claimed that Hugh “blindsided” his ex-wife, Deborra-lee Furness, by leaving her for Sutton. Deborra-lee even “liked” the post, and her friend Amanda de Cadenet commented in support, saying Deborra-lee is ready for her own glow-up.
In the latest Us Weekly issue, insiders revealed that Hugh and Sutton’s connection began during their time together in The Music Man on Broadway, which ran for 11 months. At the time, both were still married—Hugh to Deborra-lee, and Sutton to Ted Griffin.
The insider explained that the relationship was Broadway’s “worst-kept secret,” and while many in the theater community knew about it, they kept quiet out of respect for the pair. Unfortunately, Deborra-lee reportedly learned about the affair during the show’s run and was “blindsided.”
Moving Forward
Although Hugh and Sutton are now together, they’ve chosen not to live under the same roof, partly because of their kids. Hugh shares two children, Oscar (24) and Ava (19), with Deborra-lee, while Sutton has a 7-year-old daughter, Emily, from her previous marriage.
Still, it seems Sutton hasn’t been shy about sharing her happiness with Broadway friends. “Everyone in the theater world has known about this for a while,” a source revealed.
For now, the couple seems focused on enjoying their time together while respecting their families and careers. Fans will be watching closely to see what’s next for this new Broadway love story.
