Hugh Jackman sparks relationship rumors with Sutton Foster: Report

Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster fueled speculation about their relationship when they were spotted on a cozy dinner date in Santa Monica on Monday evening.

The 56-year-old X-Men star and 49-year-old Broadway actress were photographed holding hands and smiling as they enjoyed their evening out in California.

According to Daily Mail, the outing came amid reports that Jackman is planning to go public with his new relationship in the near future.

Moreover, this development follows Jackman’s announcement in September 2023 of his separation from his wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, after 27 years of marriage.

In the photos, Jackman donned a casual ensemble featuring a charcoal zip-up jacket, gray sweater, and tan chinos, paired with a salt-and-pepper beard, as per the publication.

Additionally, Foster complemented his look with a brown cashmere coat and a flowing green maxi dress.

Furthermore, the pair’s close bond has been a topic of interest since their time co-starring in the Broadway revival of The Music Man. 

Foster, who filed for divorce from her husband, screenwriter Ted Griffin, in October 2022, and Jackman have faced rumors of an affair during their stage collaboration.

It is worth mentioning that representatives for Jackman and Foster have not commented on the latest sighting, which came just days after Jackman attended a performance of Foster’s production of Once Upon A Mattress in Los Angeles.
