Actor Hugh Jackman is still struggling to unload his pricey New York City apartment after his messy divorce from Deborra-Lee Furness. He listed the five-bedroom property for $28.75 million in March, less than a year after their divorce became final.

They later listed it for a jaw-dropping $38.9 million in June 2022, more than a year before announcing their split. But the mega-price tag didn’t stick around long. They pulled the home from the market just two months later. ‘He was a Snake’: Hugh Jackman’s Ex-Wife Plotting to Expose Everything Following the Actor’s Flirty Red Carpet Debut with Sutton Foster The real estate saga comes as Jackman makes headlines for helping others with their housing costs. The “Wolverine” actor recently stepped in to cover rent for several tenants, adding another twist to his own expensive property situation.

While Jackman helps renters catch a break, his own relationship history has made headlines. He and Foster went public in 2025, but their romance arrived with plenty of baggage. Both were married to other people when their relationship surfaced. At first, rumors of infidelity remained just that, especially since they had worked together in the 2021 Broadway revival of “The Music Man.” Two years later, Jackman and his wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, announced their split in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage. The following year, Foster, 51, filed for divorce from screenwriter Ted Griffin, 55, after nearly 10 years of marriage. Despite public condemnation, Jackman, 57, and Foster have continued their relationship. Now it looks like they are looking towards the future. On Aug. 28, US Weekly reported its unnamed source said the couple were thinking about tying the knot again. “They have talked about getting engaged in the future,” said the source, who then said Jackman “told his friends he thinks she is The One. They are that close.” After hearing news of their alleged engagement, one person warned, “How you get them is how you’ll lose them.” Another said, “They both cheated on their partners and divorced them to be together. Everyone knew except the partners in their circle. Lovely couple?!!!” “Thought they were already engaged. Said it happened in Costa Rica but have never seen an engagement ring! Showing the engagement ring to media is always the first thing. Just a bunch of crap.” A Foster critic said, “She needs to finalize her divorce before I will believe this relationship will last. The two theater stars kicked off the new year getting cozy on a tropical escape. Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster were spotted enjoying a PDA-filled vacation in Costa Rica, where they held hands and cuddled up. They also spent a quiet summer in North Carolina, away from the city. Engagement seems like the natural next step for the two, since Jackman and Foster already blended other parts of their lives.  Though they’ve kept their separate places in New York City, the purported US source said, “They are basically living together.” Furthermore, Jackman’s adopted adult children, Oscar Jackman, 24, and Ava Jackman, 21, have already met Foster’s 9-year-old adopted daughter, Emily Dale Griffin.

After she officially filed in May 2025, she broke her silence with a statement. Furness told The Daily Mail, “My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal.” “It’s a profound wound that cuts deep, however I believe in a higher power and that God/the universe, whatever you relate to as your guidance, is always working FOR us,” she added. Jackman and Furness’ divorce was finalized in June 2025. According to the US, things seems better between the parties involved. “It’s civil behind the scenes and everyone is finally more accepting of where things are at,” the alleged insider said.
