A year after his divorce from his wife, actress, and producer Deborra-Lee Furness, Hugh Jackman is reportedly embroiled in an explosive love triangle with his Broadway co-star Sutton Foster and her husband. This comes after Jackman's divorce from his wife.
Sutton, who is 49 years old, appeared alongside Hugh in the stage production of "The Music Man" from December 2021 to January 2023, SCMP reported. She filed for divorce from her husband of ten years, playwright Ted Griffin, late last month after she had denied for a long time that she had any intimate involvement with Hugh.
Hugh, who is 56 years old, and the Broadway bombshell say they are "inseparable," "deeply in love," and want to establish a new life together. However, their enraged ex-partners will do all they can to prevent this from happening.
Deborra and Ted are furious that their former partners embarrassed them in public, and there are reports that they have been talking to each other about taking a solid line with Hugh and Sutton in their respective divorces, PageSix reported.
According to sources, what was previously a simple separation between Hugh and Deborra has become ugly due to this discovery, and she has vowed to walk away with as much of their $290 million wealth as she possibly can.
Sutton is believed to have sworn to Ted that the sparks between her and Hugh were nothing more than hearsay and stage magic. Meanwhile, Ted is going through a raging rage because of this.
He thinks he was taken advantage of and is out for blood, an insider divulged.
According to insiders, the couple recently admitted that they intend to get married and spend the rest of their lives together.
The National Enquirer, the first publication to report on the matter, reported that Hugh and Sutton's love affair flowered practically "as soon as the curtain rose" on "The Music Man. " The affair became a well-known secret in the theater community.
According to a source, he was completely enamored with her. Like a young dog, he follows her about like a puppy.
It has been reported that Deborra, an Australian television personality who is 68 years old and has been Hugh's longtime love, had prolonged "suspicions" that something was simmering between her husband and Sutton. As a result, she ultimately decided to break the marriage in September 2023. They have two adopted children, Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19.
