Deborra-Lee Furness reportedly has “suspicions” about her longtime husband Hugh Jackman working with actress Sutton Foster on Broadway.
Jackman and Foster appeared together in “The Music Man,” which ran on The Great White Way from Dec. 2021 – Jan. 2023.
Nine months later, Jackman and Furness announced the end of their 27-year marriage.
“Deborra-Lee had her suspicions when Hugh started working with Sutton,” a source told the Daily Mail on Saturday. “Their relationship is not a secret to her.”
Earlier this week Page Six reported that Foster filed for divorce from her husband on 10 years, Ted Griffin, with sources telling the outlet that she and Jackman are now officially an item.
“They are 100 percent together and are in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together,” one source stated. “They go out of their way to hide it, but it’s common knowledge.”
Furness, who shares adopted children Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19, with Jackman has yet to speak publicly about the end of her marriage to the “X-men” hunk, nor rumors that he and Foster are now together. .
The source told the Daily Mail she “wants to be left out of this narrative.”
She is not going to address this or speak against Hugh,” they said. “When they divorced, they agreed to keep everything that happened during their marriage private.”
“Time has passed for Hugh to mourn his divorce and now Sutton is over her relationship, they are getting closer to making it official,” a second insider added.
“They aren’t going to shove it down everyone’s throat. They became close friends while working together and got to confide in each other over their individual troubles.”
The source noted: “Hugh still has tremendous respect for Deborra-Lee. They have kids and that is what is important to them both. The are repairing what they can, and will never talk ill about each other.”
Jackman and Furness tied the knot in 1996 and released a joint statement about their separation in Sept. 2023.
“We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,” they told People at the time.
“Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth. Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness.”
