Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster were recently spotted together in Los Angeles, holding hands and sharing affectionate glances. The duo, who previously co-starred in a Broadway revival of The Music Man, were photographed on Monday, January 6, during an outing in Santa Monica. Jackman, 56, kept his look casual in a black jacket, gray T-shirt, and white jeans, while Foster donned a chic beige trench coat paired with a green maxi dress.

Reports indicate that the pair enjoyed dinner together at a Santa Monica restaurant before their public stroll. Two days earlier, Jackman had been seen supporting Foster during her West Coast performance of Once Upon a Mattress at Los Angeles’ Ahmanson Theatre. Social media images from January 4 captured the Deadpool star filming audience member Carol Burnett receiving an unexpected round of applause during intermission.

Speculation about a romantic connection between Jackman and Foster began in late 2024, with insiders revealing that their bond deepened while working together on The Music Man. According to sources, the two share a relationship described as playful yet deeply respectful, with mutual admiration playing a significant role. Jackman reportedly admires Foster’s talent and positivity, while Foster values his kindness and professionalism.

Jackman’s new relationship follows his 2023 separation from Deborra-lee Furness after 27 years of marriage. In a joint statement, the former couple expressed gratitude for their nearly three decades together, emphasizing their commitment to prioritizing their family, which includes their two adult children.

Foster, meanwhile, filed for divorce from her husband of 10 years, screenwriter Ted Griffin, in October 2024. The divorce is yet to be finalized. Foster and Griffin share a daughter, Emily, whom they adopted in 2017.

Reports suggest that Jackman and Foster’s relationship may have overlapped with their previous marriages. While both have kept their personal lives private, sources familiar with the situation claim their connection became evident during their Broadway collaboration. Despite the complexities, colleagues and friends have reportedly respected their privacy, acknowledging the warmth and kindness both actors bring to their personal and professional relationships.
