Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster’s romance became a hot topic of discussion last year. Reportedly, they have been seeing each other since 2024, but they confirmed their relationship in late 2025. A source recently claimed that the couple has always claimed them to be “private people.” Therefore, they have never been interested in “courting attention,” and have been seemingly taking their romance slow.
Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster ‘wanted to be respectful to their exes,’ per source
Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster’s relationship became public last year. They were first linked in 2024. But neither of the two reportedly wanted to make it public for the sake of their exes. While the “Wolverine” alum’s divorce with Deborra-Lee Furness was finalized in 2025, Foster and her ex-husband, Ted Griffin, parted ways two years ago.
“They’ve also wanted to be respectful to their exes, especially since Foster’s not officially divorced yet,” a source told RadarOnline. Therefore, Jackman and the “Younger” alum confirmed their relationship in October 2025 with their red-carpet debut at his “Song Sung Blue” movie premiere. Later, in November, the 57-year-old made his relationship with his girlfriend official on Instagram.
“Hugh and Sutton are both private people, and they like living in their own bubble and not courting attention,” the insider claimed. So, the pair has reportedly been taking “one step at a time.” In the meantime, the two have been enjoying the “joy of being together” and are “totally smitten” with each other, as per the source.
Earlier, several pictures of Jackman and Foster became viral online. They were spotted enjoying a sunset dip in Costa Rica during the first weekend of 2026. Looking gorgeous in their swimsuits, they were photographed sharing PDA moments. From holding hands and hugging each other, the photos included many love-filled moments. For those unversed, the duo has collaborated on the hit revival of the Broadway show, “The Music Man.” They have reportedly been friends for several years before starting to date each other.
