Hugh Jackman’s “Girlfriend” Sutton Foster Ditches Wedding Ring Amid Cheating Rumors: “Showmance”
Rumors have been swirling for a while that Hugh Jackman cheated on his wife — and the gossip only gets spicier now amidst a recent sighting of his alleged “girlfriend.”

Highlights

“Saw them in Music Man,” a netizen wrote, referencing the musical where the two met for the first time. “Their chemistry was apparent.”
Another echoed, “I thought they looked cozy on stage in The Music Man!”
A third user chalked it up to the inner workings of the business: “That is what is referred to as Showmance. It will fizzle when the excitement wears off.”
“I wish it worked out between Hugh and Deb but I can’t say I don’t love him and Sutton together!!!” voiced someone on Facebook. “They really are made for each other… theatre, fun, charismatic, talented. 💗”
Comments grasped onto the rumors as soon as they appeared

“Marriages break down. People move on. Everyone deserves their own happiness,” someone wrote.
Another theorized it as the workings of “true love,” writing, “Sometimes marriages run their course or you wouldn’t be tempted to cross the line. This was obviously more than a fling with both prepared to be together.
“It is not cool the way they did it… but how else were they supposed to be together without hurting their exes?”
Some netizens fed into these rumors and said they weren’t surprised, claiming they spotted their undeniable “chemistry” as early as last year

Jackman and Furness had been married for 27 years before their sudden split. According to an inside source, their breakup was due to the romantic connection between The Greatest Showman star and Foster.
“Sutton and Hugh’s relationship is the reason Hugh and Deb got divorced,” they told US Magazine.
“A lot of people on Broadway knew, and we kept it quiet because both of them are so nice and great people. Everyone respected their privacy. But there was an affair and overlap.”

About a year later, Foster and her husband Ted Griffin went their separate ways
The cheating rumor was only fueled after Furness “liked” a post claiming Jackman had “blindsided” her by sharing his relationship with Sutton.
“You are on point with this one,” read a comment from Furness’ close friend. “My beloved friend Deb is about to have her glow up any moment fyi!”
According to Jackman and Furness, their split ended on amicable terms

A joint statement to People read, “We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate and pursue our individual growth.
“Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness. We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.”
The pair share two kids: Oscar, 23, and Ava, 18.
“This makes me sad,” stated a user
