Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster are once again fueling speculation that their romance is moving at full speed.
After months of whispers surrounding their relationship, the Broadway stars were recently spotted loading luggage into a car together in New York City, immediately sparking fresh rumors that they may now be sharing a home.
The sighting comes after an already emotional year involving public appearances, divorce drama, and ongoing fallout tied to Jackman’s split from Deborra-Lee Furness after nearly three decades of marriage.
Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster turned heads this week after they were photographed hauling suitcases into the trunk of a silver car in Manhattan.
The pair appeared relaxed during the outing while accompanied by a woman believed to be one of their loved ones, who was later seen warmly embracing Foster.
The sighting immediately reignited speculation that the couple may have quietly taken another major step in their relationship by moving in together.
Jackman kept things casual in shorts and a fitted T-shirt that highlighted his famously muscular physique, while Foster opted for a soft pink sweater, dark sweatpants, sunglasses, and a sleek bun.
The luggage-filled outing came only weeks after the actors made their highly discussed Met Gala debut together earlier this month.
Foster stunned in a shimmering gold Monse gown while Jackman wore a black Giorgio Armani tuxedo as they officially stepped onto one of Hollywood’s biggest red carpets as a couple.
The public appearance marked a significant milestone for the pair, whose romance had spent months surrounded by speculation before they confirmed the relationship earlier this year.
Jackman’s Relationship Timeline Continues Drawing Attention
Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster first became close while starring together in the 2022 Broadway revival of “The Music Man.”
At the time, both actors were still married, which later fueled rumors their relationship may have begun before their respective separations.
However, Jackman shocked fans in September 2023 when he and wife Deborra-Lee Furness announced the end of their 27-year marriage.
The following year, Foster filed for divorce from husband Ted Griffin in October 2024 after 10 years together.
Following the end of their marriages, the pair officially confirmed their romance in early 2025 following months of growing public speculation.
Hugh Jackman’s Divorce Fallout Continues Behind The Scenes
While Jackman and Foster continue stepping out publicly together, tensions surrounding the “Greatest Showman” star’s split from Deborra-Lee Furness have reportedly remained intense behind the scenes.
Sources claimed Furness viewed the Met Gala as one of the couple’s most cherished annual traditions.
“This was her and Hugh’s ‘big night out’ for the year and they were there side-by-side, just like Sutton is today, just four years ago,” an insider told New Idea Magazine.
The source added that the former couple had even discussed “split custody” of the Met Gala following their breakup before Foster entered the picture publicly.
Following the Met Gala, Furness fueled fresh speculation again when she commented on Kerry Washington’s Instagram post promoting her new show “Imperfect Woman.”
After Washington captioned the post, “You cannot trust ANYBODY… EVER,” Furness responded, “HILARIOUS… so true.”
The remark immediately sparked online discussion, with many fans wondering whether she was indirectly referencing Jackman and the end of their marriage.
Jackman’s Divorce Became Complicated Over Massive Fortune
Although Hugh Jackman and Furness separated in 2023, the legal process reportedly became far more complicated because the couple never signed a prenup.
The “Correlli” star officially filed for divorce in May 2025, months after insiders revealed financial negotiations were becoming difficult.
“One of the biggest reasons why they haven’t yet filed is that they never had a prenup,” a source close to Jackman revealed per the Daily Mail, adding, “When they got married, they thought it would be forever.”
The insider explained that neither of them expected Jackman’s career to eventually explode into a fortune reportedly worth more than $100 million.
“Because there was no prenup, and he made a fortune during their marriage, this divorce is not going to be cut and dry,” the source added, further noting, “It may even get messy because the stakes are high.”
Another insider later claimed the former couple were “struggling to reach an agreement on how to divide their assets,” with Furness allegedly believing she deserved a larger financial settlement than Jackman wanted to offer.
After officially filing for divorce, Furness released a statement that quickly made headlines because of one particularly emotional line.
“My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal. It’s a profound wound that cuts deep,” she said.
The statement reportedly left Jackman stunned. According to insiders, the actor felt “extremely disappointed” because there had allegedly been “an unwritten understanding that she would not trash him to the press.”
Despite the emotional fallout, the divorce was finalized in June 2025, only one month after Furness filed. Since then, speculation surrounding Jackman and Sutton Foster has only intensified.
Insiders now claim the 57-year-old is serious about building a future with Foster, especially as the couple continues appearing more comfortable and public together.
And after their latest suitcase-filled outing in Manhattan, many fans are now convinced Jackman and Foster may already be preparing for life under the same roof.
