Hugh Jackman Attends Sutton Foster’s Play as Relationship Speculation Grows

The actors, who co-starred in Broadway’s 'The Music Man,' have faced rumors of a romance following their respective marital separations.

Hugh Jackman, 56, was seen attending Sutton Foster’s performance in 'Once Upon a Mattress' at Los Angeles’ Ahmanson Theatre on January 4, alongside Carol Burnett, who originated Foster’s role in 1959.
Jackman and Foster worked together on Broadway’s 'The Music Man' from December 2021 to January 2023, during which rumors of a romantic connection reportedly began.
Jackman announced his separation from his wife of 27 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, in September 2023, while Foster filed for divorce from her husband, Ted Griffin, in October 2024.
Sources close to the actors have claimed they are in a private relationship, though neither Jackman nor Foster has publicly addressed the speculation.
The alleged romance has drawn attention due to claims of an overlap between their relationships with their respective spouses and their time working together on Broadway.
