Hugh Jackman is no stranger to the Hollywood limelight, but now the Wolverine star is sharing some of that shine with Broadway sensation Sutton Foster. The couple has officially taken their romance to the next level – by going public on Instagram. A year after sparking dating rumors and a month following their glamorous debut on the Los Angeles red carpet, Jackman has finally posted a heartfelt tribute to Foster.
On Wednesday, Hugh took to Instagram to share a snap of Sutton during a dazzling performance in New York City. Dressed in a stunning green gown, she lit up the stage at Café Carlyle, and Hugh couldn’t help but gush. "@suttonlenore performing during the holidays at @cafecarlyle … now that's an iconic NYC night! And, truly magical," he wrote, clearly smitten. The post also featured a sweet clip of Sutton waving to Hugh from the stage, which fans adored.
"@thehughjackman, @suttonlenore I admire how supportive you both are of each other's work! #couplegoals," commented one enthusiastic fan, while another asked, "When are the two of you gonna perform together?!?"
The couple first turned heads on the red carpet in October, attending the Song Sung Blue premiere. Jackman looked dapper in a classic tuxedo, while Foster wowed in a sleek black slip dress. The event marked a significant step in their relationship journey, which began in 2021 during their stint in the Broadway revival of The Music Man.
Their connection blossomed during the production, with mutual admiration paving the way for a close friendship. Despite being previously married to others – Hugh to Deborra-Lee Furness and Sutton to Ted Griffin – they've found a harmonious rhythm together.
Hugh and Sutton's previous relationships ended in 2023 and 2024 respectively. The former couple, Jackman and Furness, had shared nearly three decades of marriage before parting ways to pursue personal growth. Sutton and Griffin's marriage also came to a close, paving the way for new beginnings.
Together, Hugh and Sutton continue to charm fans with their talent and chemistry, both onstage and off, leaving many wondering if a future stage performance together might be in the cards.
