Deborra-Lee Furness says she is prioritising ‘myself’ as her ex-husband Hugh Jackman moves on with Sutton Foster<\/p>\n
The \u2018Deadpool and Wolverine\u2019 star, 56, and the 69-year-old actress wed in 1996 and have two adoptive kids \u2013 Oscar Maximilian Jackman, 24, and 19-year-old Ava Eliot Jackman \u2013 but they shocked fans when they announced their separation in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage.<\/p>\n
Hugh has since moved on with 49-year-old theatre star Sutton Foster \u2013 who he worked with on the 2022 Broadway production ‘The Music Man’ \u2013 and Deborra-Lee says she is focused on herself and is exploring new career opportunities in her native Australia and New York.<\/p>\n
Speaking to Australia\u2019s Herald Sun, she said: \u201cI\u2019ve had a few offers for films back (in Australia) so I\u2019m still reading some scripts so if there\u2019s something that\u2019s great.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve got some projects in New York. I\u2019m in my chapter three. I\u2019m a creative, I love being creative in a variety of areas and I think I\u2019ll be doing more travelling.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nShe then divulged: “I\u2019ll be taking more time for myself.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThis is the first time Deborra-Lee has spoken since her ex-spouse stepped out for dinner in Santa Monica with Sutton on January 6, with the pair arriving together holding hands.<\/p>\n
\nIn photographs obtained by People magazine, Hugh dressed casually in white jeans, a grey t-shirt and a black jacket, while Sutton had a camel trench coat over a long olive-green dress, and the pair were seen looking into each other’s eyes and smiling broadly.<\/p>\n
\nThe couple have been romantically linked for some time, but this marked their first public outing together and came three months after Sutton filed for divorce from Ted Griffin after 10 years of marriage.<\/p>\n
\nTwo days earlier, Hugh was seen in the audience of one of Sutton’s final performances of ‘Once Upon a Mattress’ at Los Angeles\u2019 Ahmanson Theatre.<\/p>\n
\nThe award-winning actress previously hailed the Marvel star one of her “best friends”.<\/p>\n
\nAnnouncing their split in a joint statement, Hugh and Deborra-lee told People magazine: \u201cWe have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cOur journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cOur family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cWe greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThey signed off as \u201cDeb and Hugh Jackman\u201d and concluded: \u201cThis is the sole statement either of us will make.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nThey met on the set of TV series \u2018Correlli\u2019 in their native Australia in 1995 and Hugh had previously declared it was love at first sight for him.<\/p>\n
\nHe said on the \u2018Today\u2019 show in 2018: \u201cI knew two weeks into meeting Deb that we were going to be together for the rest of our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
