A Growing Romance After Their Red Carpet Debut
Jackmanâs post comes one month after the couple made their red carpet debut at the âSong Sung Blueâ premiere. The two stayed close throughout the night, posing arm in arm and sharing easy smiles. Their appearance followed months of speculation about their relationship.
GettyLast year, Page Six reported that they had been quietly dating and âin love,â choosing to keep things private as their connection grew.
A source said in October 2024, âThey spend all of their free time together. They are a regular couple, they are just in private.â
Their Low-Key Romance Blossomed on Broadway
GettyJackman and Foster first met while co-starring in Broadwayâs âThe Music Man,â which ran from December 2021 to January 2023. At the time, both were still married.
By September 2023, rumors surfaced that Jackmanâs marriage to Deborra-Lee Furness was ending amid speculation about an alleged affair. He and Furness separated after 27 years together. One month later, Foster filed for divorce from her husband, Ted Griffin, after a decade of marriage.
GettyIn January, Jackman and Foster were photographed holding hands in California, effectively confirming the romance that had been quietly developing offstage.
Furness, 69, officially filed for divorce in May, and the former couple settled the following month while dividing a $250 million estate.
GettyAccording to the Daily Mail, Furness walked away with a âhandsome spousal support payment,â though sources claimed the divorce was âdifficult.â
GettyReports also suggest she is considering a tell-all book that would address the end of their marriage and her perspective on Jackmanâs rumored affair.
A New Chapter for Jackman and Foster
For now, Jackman and Foster seem content and confident as they ease into life as a public couple. His Instagram post marks a meaningful step for the two, who are now embracing their relationship after years of friendship and a long stretch of keeping things private.
