Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster, who have been rumoured to be dating for a while now, were spotted stepping out for a romantic dinner date.
According to the pictures obtained by People magazine, The Musical Man co-stars were photographed, out and about in Santa Monica, California.
For their date, Jackman wore a grey jacket and paired it with a pair of white jeans. Foster opted for a brown trench coat with an olive green dress and black heels.
Their public outing comes over a year after Jackman’s split with his wife and actor-producer Deborra-Lee Furness. They’ve been together for almost 30 years, as mentioned by E! News.
The former couple have two adopted children—Oscar and Ava, who are 24 and 19-year-old, respectively. They announced their separation in a joint statement in September 2023.
Last October, Foster filed for divorce from her second husband and Ocean’s Eleven screenwriter Ted Griffin. They were married for 10 years and have a daughter named Emily.
Foster and Jackman, who co-starred in the 2022 hit revival of the stage production Music Man, have spoken highly of each other during the promotions of the classic play.
Sutton told Vogue in 2022, “He has an impeccable reputation of being the hardest working man, incredibly kind, and generous—and all of that is true.”
Speaking of their onstage chemistry which sparked their dating rumours, the actress had shared, “One of the things that our director said early on was when you’re watching two characters fall in love, you look for the moments where they make each other smile. So it’s sort of birthed out of that, and it’s a spontaneous moment that’s different every single night. It toes that line of, is it Harold and Marian, or Hugh and Sutton?”
The Broadway ran from December 2021 to January 2023.
