Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster Spark Romance Rumors with Passionate PDA
Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster have set the rumor mill ablaze after being spotted sharing a series of intimate kisses, marking their first public display of affection since whispers of their secret relationship began circulating.
The 56-year-old Wolverine star and the 49-year-old Broadway icon were photographed locked in a steamy embrace at a San Fernando In-N-Out drive-thru. Foster tenderly cupped Jackman’s face as the pair kissed passionately while waiting for their fast food order. Their chemistry was undeniable as they stepped out of the car, exchanging more hugs and kisses outside, seemingly oblivious to onlookers.
A Timeline of Rumored Affairs and Recent Divorces
Jackman, who ended his 27-year marriage to Deborra-Lee Furness in September 2023, looked relaxed in a casual black T-shirt and jeans, complemented by his signature glasses. Foster, recently separated from her husband of 10 years, Ted Griffin, donned a flowing blouse and jeans for the low-key outing.
The sighting comes days after Jackman attended Foster’s performance in the Broadway classic Once Upon A Mattress in Los Angeles. The duo, who previously starred together in the critically acclaimed production of The Music Man, were later spotted holding hands during a cozy date in Santa Monica.
A “Broadway Secret”?
Fans have long speculated about the pair’s relationship, with many pointing to their undeniable chemistry both on and off stage during The Music Man. Reports suggest the alleged affair may have contributed to the unraveling of their respective marriages.
In October 2023, Furness fueled speculation by liking an Instagram post from a gossip blogger alleging that Jackman was “running off with his mistress” and preparing to “soft-launch” their relationship.
A source told that Furness was blindsided by the affair: “This was Broadway’s worst-kept secret, but Deborra-Lee was the last to know.”
Adding fuel to the fire, the insider claimed that Furness was particularly hurt by the silence of Jackman’s close friends Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, who reportedly knew about the affair but chose to stay tight-lipped. “Deb feels betrayed not just by Hugh but by people she thought were friends. She’s furious they didn’t tell her what was going on,” the source added.
A Breakup Statement with a Twist
Following their separation, Jackman and Furness released a joint statement: “We have been blessed to share nearly three decades together in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting, and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth. Our family remains our highest priority, and we embark on this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness.”
While the statement emphasized mutual respect, insiders suggest that behind closed doors, tensions were high.
As Foster moves forward, having filed for divorce in October, and Jackman navigates life post-marriage, their recent PDA suggests a fresh chapter for both. Whether this marks the beginning of a public romance or just another twist in the unfolding drama, it’s clear that their connection has captivated both fans and skeptics alike.
