‘She is finally starting to heal': Deborra-Lee Furness dating again after finalising Hugh Jackman divorce
Deborra-Lee Furness is reportedly back in the dating game after she finally inked a divorce settlement with Hugh Jackman to carve up their estimated $250 million (USD) fortune. Furness, 69, and Jackman, 56, separated in September 2023 after 27 years of marriage in a surprise move that shocked Hollywood insiders. The Wolverine star has since gone public with his new relationship with Sutton Foster, who he first met in 2021 while they were both still married and starring in the musical Music Man. Insiders close to Furness have claimed the actress 'had suspicions' about Jackman and Foster and felt 'vindicated' after paparazzi photos confirmed the relationship earlier this year. The beloved Aussie actress is reportedly courting offers from potential dates but is holding back until she can find a partner who 'meets her high standards'. 'Deb is finally starting to heal and talk about what she wants in her life going forward,' an insider told Woman's Day magazine on Monday. 'She's got an incredible support system that's been there every step of the way, helping her to pick up the pieces of her life. 'They are encouraging her to start dating again.' Manhattan-based Furness filed for divorce from Jackman on May 27, roughly two years after their separation. According to court documents obtained by People magazine, Furness' divorce filing indicated the terms of their divorce were uncontested and would only need a sign-off from a judge. It is understood the settlement process was handled behind closed doors, with Furness reportedly walking away very satisfied with the settlement. Furness originally met Jackman on the set of the miniseries Corelli when he was just starting out in the Aussie entertainment industry, and wed the future movie star in 1996. Within a decade, Jackman had emerged as one of the most bankable stars in Hollywood thanks to his role as Wolverine in the X-Men franchise, while Furness primarily focused on raising the couple's two children. Furness most recently appeared on the big screen with a major supporting role in Force of Nature: The Dry 2 opposite Eric Bana in 2024. In January, Furness told the Herald Sun she was in 'chapter three' of her life and was reviewing film offers after mostly retiring from the screen during her marriage to Jackman. 'I've had a few offers for films back here so I'm still reading some scripts, so if there's something that's great,'' she said. 'I've got some projects in New York. I'm in my chapter three. I'm a creative, I love being creative in a variety of areas and I think I'll be doing more travelling.'

Wrexham star comes clean on dressing room's brutal treatment of Hugh Jackman
Wrexham star comes clean on dressing room's brutal treatment of Hugh Jackman Hugh Jackman is one of many A-list celebrities to have visited Wrexham since the club was bought by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, but it didn't go down well with the players Hugh Jackman's visit to Wrexham with Ryan Reynolds didn't go to plan (Image:) A former Wrexham captain has revealed how Hollywood heavyweight Hugh Jackman faced a surprisingly cool response from players after a visit to the team's changing room. The Welsh club has become a magnet for star visits ever since actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney took over in February 2021. The Racecourse Ground has welcomed many celebrities from Tinseltown, with appearances from Eva Longoria, Channing Tatum and Paul Rudd. Comedy legend Will Ferrell also raised some laughs when he greeted the squad in February 2023. However, ex-Red Dragons skipper Ben Tozer has now shared how an encounter with Jackman received a less warm reception. Jackman, who featured alongside Reynolds in last year's Deadpool and Wolverine movie, was present in August 2023 hoping to see Wrexham triumph in their first match back in the EFL for 15 years. Despite the hype around the season opener in League Two, Phil Parkinson's team were beaten 5-3 at home by MK Dons. Following the disappointing result, the players weren't particularly sociable as Jackman ventured into the dressing room. Tozer, who recently hung up his boots, spoke about some of the star-studded visits while talking to Sky Sports Radio. He said: "The one where I had to pinch myself was when Will Ferrell walked in the dressing room before a game. I was like, 'I have to shake and bake with that guy,' because of Talladega Nights.

He walked in and no one was bothered. Everyone was just a bit like, 'Can you get out please? We don't want anyone in here.'" Jackman, who is a self-proclaimed fan of the club, posted a heartfelt tribute to Wrexham on Instagram in July 2023. He said: "You don't even have to like @vancityreynolds. @wrexham_afc @wrexhamfx is the people, the town, the heart, the show that is balm for the soul." In the past, Jackman spoke of how he was inspired by Reynolds' acquisition of Wrexham and was nearly convinced to buy a football club himself. Watch Welcome to Wrexham season 4 on Disney+ from £4.99 Disney+ Get Disney+ here Product Description Welcome to Wrexham is back on Disney+ for a fourth season. Fans can watch the series with a £4.99 monthly plan, or get 12 months for the price of 10 by paying for a year upfront. During an interview on the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, Jackman said: "I will admit to you that when Ryan [Reynolds] bought that team, I did get more than one offer from rivals of that team for £1 to come in as a co-owner and it did seriously tempt me." He then jokingly added: "This whole thing of outsiders coming in and buying football teams, it feels a little, I don't know, easy. I have decided to go one step further, I am actually going to try out for the team." Article continues below Although Jackman resisted the temptation to buy a football club, he and Reynolds recently joined forces in a different sporting venture, acquiring the BONDS Flying Roos sailing team in June. The Australian outfit competes in the international SailGP contest, which has also garnered attention from other celebrity backers, such as Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe and actress Anne Hathaway. In a joint statement, Reynolds and Jackman said: "We're incredibly excited to set sail together in this new adventure. Hugh brings a deep love for and pride in his home country as well as being an avid fan of sailing. He will also be bringing his overly clingy emotional support human along for the ride. Apologies in advance to Australia."

Wrexham dressing room's ice-cold reaction to Hugh Jackman as star speaks out
Hugh Jackman was snubbed by Wrexham players when visiting them after a game in 2023, despite other stars like Will Ferrell getting warm welcomes in the dressing room A former Wrexham captain has lifted the lid on how Hollywood A-lister Hugh Jackman was snubbed by players during a visit to the team's changing room. A whole host of celebrities have dropped in to watch the Welsh outfit in action since the club was bought by actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney in February 2021. Famous faces seen at the Racecourse Ground have included Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria, Magic Mike actor Channing Tatum and Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong. Will Ferrell also delighted the Wrexham squad by stopping off to say hello to them in February 2023. However, ex-Red Dragons skipper Ben Tozer has now revealed how Jackman was met with a much frostier reception later that year. Reynolds' Deadpool and Wolverine co-star was in town in August 2023 to take in Wrexham's first EFL game in 15 years. The club's opening match of the season in League Two was eagerly anticipated, but ended in disappointment as Phil Parkinson 's side suffered a 5-3 home defeat to MK Dons. And the Wrexham players were in no mood to talk when Jackman called in to the dressing room after the game to offer his condolences. Tozer, who recently announced his retirement from football, discussed rubbing shoulders with the stars during an appearance on Sky Sports Radio. "The one where I had to pinch myself was when Will Ferrell walked in the dressing room before a game," he said. "I was like, 'I have to shake and bake with that guy,' because of Talladega Nights. "But unfortunately, when Hugh Jackman came into the dressing room, he got the cold shoulder because we'd lost the game. He walked in and no one was bothered. Everyone was just a bit like, 'Can you get out please? We don't want anyone in here.'" Jackman has previously opened up on his love for Wrexham and the Welcome to Wrexham documentary, which charts the club's journey under the ownership of Reynolds and McElhenney. Posting on Instagram in July 2023, the Australian said: "You don't even have to like @vancityreynolds. @wrexham_afc @wrexhamfx is the people, the town, the heart, the show that is balm for the soul." He also once revealed how their ownership of Wrexham nearly led him to buy a football club. "I will admit to you that when Ryan [Reynolds] bought that team, I did get more than one offer from rivals of that team for £1 to come in as a co-owner and it did seriously tempt me," Jackman said while appearing on the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg show. "This whole thing of outsiders coming in and buying football teams, it feels a little, I don't know, easy. I have decided to go one step further, I am actually going to try out for the team." While Jackman ultimately resisted following Reynolds into becoming the owner of a football club, the pair recently announced that they had entered a different sporting venture together. The two actors were confirmed in June as the new owners of the BONDS Flying Roos sailing team. The Australian team competes in the international SailGP competition, which has also attracted several other high-profile investors, including Real Madrid star Kylian Mbappe and American actress Anne Hathaway. In a joint statement, Reynolds and Jackman said: "We're incredibly excited to set sail together in this new adventure.

The couple purchased the sprawling West Village home, which boasts views of the Hudson River, in 2008 for $21 million. However, they have not lived in it for some time, instead renting it out for $125,000 per month, The Real Deal reports. The couple previously attempted to sell the home in 2022 for the same price it is now listed for, before deciding to rent it.

The West Village condo is the first of their assets to be sold following their divorce agreement but it might not be the last. In 2015, Jackman and Furness purchased a 7,300-square-foot, three-bedroom, five-bathroom home in East Hampton, New York for $3.5 million, a year before buying a $5.9 million home in Australia, which reports Jackman is believed to be taking over. Rather than play out a messy divorce in public, Jackman and Furness chose to go through the process behind closed doors. The Daily Mail estimates that the couple had a net worth of $250 million to divvy up in the divorce, the details of which have now been resolved.

Jackman has been involved in several business ventures outside his career. He founded Laughing Man Coffee Company, a fair-trade coffee business with two cafés in downtown New York. He is, however, no longer involved in the enterprise. 'I did not set out to make a coffee company. I saw an opportunity to make a difference in the world with an exceptional coffee that gives back to the communities that grow it,' he told CEO World in 2021. Along with his "Deadpool & Wolverine" co-star Ryan Reynolds he is a co-owner of Australia's three-time SailGP champions, now known as the BONDS Flying Roos SailGP Team. According to the U.K. The Independent, the team has secured a multiyear partnership with BONDS underwear. It is the first time the Australian SailGP team has adopted a sponsor's name.
