Deborra-Lee Furness ‘back in the dating game’ following her bitter split from Hugh Jackman – after Aussie actor moves on with Sutton Foster
It’s reported that Deborra-Lee Furness has re-entered the dating world following the conclusion of her divorce from Hugh Jackman earlier this month.
The well-known Australian actress, aged 69, seems to be attracting proposals from possible admirers. However, she appears to be waiting patiently until she locates someone whose qualities align with her stringent preferences.
According to a source, Deb is now beginning to recover and discuss her aspirations for the future. This news was shared with Woman’s Day magazine this week.
She possesses a remarkable network of people who have stood by her throughout her journey, providing assistance as she rebuilds her life. They are motivating her to venture back into dating once more.
In my professional opinion, I can confidently share that Furness has been courted by some truly outstanding individuals. However, she’s choosing to bide her time, seeking that one exceptional match who aligns perfectly with her ideals and aspirations.

‘She knows what she brings to the table,’ the insider added.
A month ago, the divorce between Furness and Jackman was officially finalized, as reported exclusively by Daily Mail, following their filing a month earlier.
On June 12th, a petition for divorce was submitted, thereby making it an official proceeding. Nevertheless, the related documents were kept confidential and not released to the public until June 23rd.
Before the verdict was made official, two additional documents were submitted on June 10. One was called a ‘Qualified Medical Child Support Order’, which dealt with matters concerning the children’s health insurance, and the other was named ‘Findings of Fact/Conclusions of Law.’
The divorce was finalized some time back, but the judge had yet to officially endorse the verdict following the submission of the proposed ruling.
According to a source, it’s been reported that Furness, who shares two adopted kids with the actor known as Wolverine, has been making ‘spousal support payments.’ This information was shared by the same source who had earlier spoken to Daily Mail.
It was disclosed that Furness is content with the agreement, which involves a substantial alimony payment to his spouse.
In the end, there were discussions back and forth about the financial agreement, but ultimately, she received what she felt was fair. As a result, both parties find themselves in a financially stable position moving forward.


‘There is not going to be any drama with this – it gives closure that she needed.’
Exclusively reported by Daily Mail in May, it was revealed that after 27 years together, Jackman (age 56) and Furness had filed for divorce to legally end their marriage.
The movie producer submitted a complaint in New York City on May 23rd, and according to the documents, all issues seem to have been resolved quietly behind the scenes.
Additional documents filed by her attorney encompass a notice outlining the extension of health insurance coverage, a draft of a qualified medical child support order, a New York state case registry form (used for reporting child support orders to the state’s database), the settlement agreement, a proposed judgment of divorce, and a certificate confirming dissolution.
All that needed to be done was for the judge to sign off on the judgment.
In simpler terms, the divorce is ‘uncontested,’ which means there was no significant argument or dispute between the couple who are getting divorced.
According to another source, they’ve already figured out all the specifics concerning a potential agreement, including child support, future costs for their kids, and the overall settlement, as reported by Daily Mail.
‘They are amicable and they are both fully committed to being the best parents that they can be.’
They added that Jackman was ‘looking forward to the future and not looking back’.
Following the announcement of their divorce, Furness left fans stunned as she referred to her experiences as a ‘painful ordeal’ that involved ‘feelings of betrayal’.
For quite some time now, I, a diehard fan, have found myself captivated by the enchanting love story unfolding between the remarkable talents Jackman and Sutton Foster, who graced the stage together in The Music Man. However, the specific moment when their hearts intertwined remains an intriguing mystery, as neither party has officially confirmed the timeline of their romantic journey.
The couple seems to be disregarding any unfavorable chatter regarding their romance, a scenario that some spectators speculated began during his marriage. Instead, they appear to be focusing on advancing their relationship.
According to a prior statement made to The Daily Mail, it was suggested that although Jackman did not engage in physical infidelity, the 69-year-old individual feels they had an “emotional entanglement” with their ex-spouse and believes he had emotionally betrayed her.
Despite not being seen together in public since May, when they were spotted hand-in-hand in New York City, a source confides to Daily Mail that Jackman and Sutton are currently very content.
