The recent revelations about Hugh Jackman’s relationship with Sutton Foster suggest their romance began under questionable circumstances. Following the announcement of his divorce from Deborra Lee-Furness in September 2023, speculation arose regarding Jackman’s fidelity during his marriage. He and Foster starred together in “Music Man” from December 2021 to January 2023, where their chemistry was palpable. According to a source cited by InTouch, their relationship became a well-known secret within the Broadway community, with claims that Jackman was infatuated with Foster from their first meeting.
Complicating matters further, both Jackman and Foster were married at the time they grew close. Foster filed for divorce from her spouse, Ted Griffin, in October 2024, with insiders suggesting that her romance with Jackman played a role in their separation. Reports indicated that the two were deeply in love and desired a life together, as shared by a source to Page Six.
After Foster’s divorce, additional claims emerged suggesting Jackman had engaged in infidelity. A source told Us Weekly in November 2024 that Jackman’s relationship with Foster was a significant reason behind his split from Lee-Furness. Many acquaintances expressed their disappointment in Jackman’s actions after nearly three decades of marriage, leading to backlash from fans as accusations of infidelity surfaced online.
Hugh Jackman’s old posts that aged poorly
Following his divorce, scandalous rumors surfaced regarding the timeline of Jackman’s relationship with Sutton Foster, which seemed to coincide with their marriages. Despite the turmoil, Jackman maintained a presence of appreciation towards his ex-wife Lee-Furness on social media, including a heartfelt anniversary post celebrating their 27 years together in April 2023. As allegations of infidelity spread, fans commented critically on his posts, voicing their disapproval, with one remarking, “Karma is a B***H! Hope Sutton is worth it.”
Jackman had previously made light-hearted remarks about “cheating” on diets in a tweet from October 2015, which drew ire from fans later on, who accused him of cheating in more serious aspects of his life. Furthermore, social media influencer Tasha Lustig addressed the rumors of Jackman’s relationship with Foster in an October 2024 post, mentioning that she had previously warned of his questionable behavior. Sources say that Lee-Furness acknowledged Lustig’s post by liking it from her private account.
