Her friend, British media personality Amanda de Cadenet, also had thoughts to share.
According to insiders, these reactions were somewhat expected since “Sutton and Hugh’s relationship is the reason Hugh and Deb got divorced.”
Now, fans are labeling Jackman as a “cheater.”
“Spent most of his life with a woman 12 yrs older than he was,” one user wrote. “Was fun when they were both on [the] younger side. Now he just traded her in for a younger woman. Classy move. I love karma though, so I’ll wait around and see when it comes through.”
Someone else chimed in, “Hugh Jackman is only concerned with his saint on earth reputation. He’s not the first man who cheated on his wife and left her for a younger woman. However, he can stop pretending he’s a saint now.
“His wife is a class act. He doesn’t deserve her.”
Though Furness was reportedly kept in the dark about the affair, she seemed to have had suspicions prior to the confirmation
A source toldDaily Mailearlier this month that Jackman’s relationship with Foster was not as under wraps as he thought.
“Deborra-Lee had her suspicions when Hugh started working with Sutton,” a source told the outlet. “Their relationship is not a secret to her.”
The action star and Foster first appeared together on Broadway inThe Music Man, which ran on the Great White Way from December 2021 to January 2023.

“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.”
“Deb, she was a big star… I get picked up, and Deb is in the front seat of the car. I’ll never forget,” Jackman said to the magazine, recalling his first meeting with the now 68-year-old.
“She took off her seatbelt and she turned around and put out her hand and took off her sunglasses and said, ‘Hi, I’m Deborra-Lee Furness, nice to meet you.’ I remember thinking, ‘I like this girl.’”
The pair share two kids: Oscar, 23, and Ava, 18.
