It's claimed Hugh Jackman is 'not looking back' now his divorce from Deborra-Lee Furness has been finalised.
The actor, 56, and his ex, 69, have finalised their divorce nearly two years after they announced their separation, according to court documents.
New York's Suffolk County Supreme Court online records show that a judgment of divorce was filed June 12, according to People, but only just made public knowledge.
The divorce settlement was handled behind closed doors, with Furness reportedly 'pleased with' the financial terms of their split.
'There was some back and forth regarding this financial agreement but, in the end, she got what she believed she deserved,' a source told Daily Mail.
'Both are coming out of this financially secure. These is not going to be any drama with this – it gives that closure that she needed.'
Another source added that Jackman is 'looking forward to the future and not looking back'.
With their split now official, it's claimed that close friends of Furness are keen for her to get back out and start dating again.
However, an insider has revealed that dating 'is just not for her' at the moment.
'For decades, Deborra-Lee was certain that she had found her lifelong companion,' the source said, adding that she 'never thought in a million years that she would be here, at this stage in her life, single.'
'She knows what she brings to the table,' the source added. 'Once the dust settles on this divorce, she will be open to dating again.'
The news of their divorce being finalised comes months after the exes — who share two adopted kids: son Oscar, 25, and daughter Ava, 19 — were reportedly struggling to see eye-to-eye on how to divide their $US250 million fortune.
In March, an insider told the Daily Mail that Furness, 69, was holding up their divorce as she felt 'entitled to more money than' Jackman, 56, was offering at the time.
The two announced their separation in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage.
'We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,' the former couple said in a joint statement at the time.
'Our journey now is shifting, and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.'
At the time of the announcement, a source told Page Six the split had been a long time coming and that those close to the couple were already aware of the break-up.
