Sutton Foster’s Divorce Sparks Romance Rumors with Hugh Jackman

Actress Sutton Foster has initiated divorce proceedings against her husband of ten years, Ted Griffin, which has sparked intense speculation regarding a potential romance with Hugh Jackman, known for his role as “Wolverine.” Foster filed for an uncontested divorce on October 22, shortly after selling her historic Gilded Age estate in New York for $2 million.

Foster, famous for her role in the series “Younger,” starred alongside Jackman in the popular Broadway production “The Music Man.” She had purchased the picturesque home in Tuxedo Park, New York, in 2021 for $1.6 million. In December 2023, she decided to put the seven-bedroom, five-bathroom property on the market for $2.2 million.

Selling the property, which Foster had previously described as “magical,” was likely a difficult choice for her. She had expressed that the house felt like the perfect place for her family to create memories, envisioning holidays there with Griffin and their daughter, Emily.

The couple found the New York estate while searching for a permanent residence outside the city. Griffin discovered the location first, feeling that it could be their “forever home,” a sentiment that Foster immediately shared upon entering.

Foster’s decision to sell the home coincided with escalating rumors of her alleged relationship with Jackman, who had recently separated from his spouse of 27 years, Deborra-Lee Furness. Reports have suggested that their chemistry during performances of “The Music Man,” which ran from December 2021 to January 2023, blossomed into a romantic relationship.

Before joining the Broadway show, Foster sold another property, a charming Los Angeles A-frame for $1.5 million, revealing her affinity for homes that provide a nurturing environment.

Foster’s homes often reflect her desire for warmth and character, with the interiors designed in collaboration with designer Michael Ostrow. The historic estate in Tuxedo Park, constructed in 1895 by Gilded Age architect Bruce Price, has ties to notable figures in history.

The news of Foster’s divorce surfaces just over a year after Jackman announced his separation from his wife. Neither party has spoken out publicly about the rumors regarding their relationship; however, sources have indicated that they wish to keep their romance private while confirming that they are in a relationship and deeply in love.
