Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster have officially confirmed their relationship, putting an end to months of speculation.

The two have gone public over a year after Jackman's unexpected split from Deborra-Lee Furness, his wife of nearly 30 years.

On 6 January, the couple was photographed holding hands on a dinner date in Santa Monica, California, as reported by People Magazine.

Jackman and Foster reportedly grew close while starring together in the 2022 Broadway revival of The Music Man. At the time, both were married — Jackman to Furness and Foster to screenwriter Ted Griffin.

In 2023, both stars experienced significant life changes, with Jackman separating from Furness and Foster finalizing her divorce from Griffin after a decade of marriage.

Fans had long speculated about the pair’s connection, citing their undeniable chemistry during The Music Man. Jackman further fueled rumors when he was spotted in the audience supporting Foster during her debut in Once Upon a Mattress in Los Angeles.

Both Jackman and Foster have remained private about their personal lives, but their public outings and mutual support have delighted fans of the Broadway and Hollywood stars.
