How Hugh Jackman and Wife Are Dividing Massive $387M Fortune
Hugh Jackman reached an agreement with his soon-to-be ex-wife Deborra-lee Furness about who gets which multi-million dollar property out of their $387 million in assets, according to the Daily Mail, paving the way for the official end to their nearly 30-year marriage. Deborra-lee Furness, 69, filed for divorce from Jackman, 56, earlier this month, following the couple's separation announcement in 2023. Since then, Jackman began dating his Music Man co-star Sutton Foster, with whom he's now presumed to be living at the $23 million three-story condo in New York's Chelsea neighborhood that he secured in his final round of behind-the-scenes negotiations with Furness. Other properties the exes agreed to split include their $12 million Bondi beach retreat in their native Australia, a $3.5 million beachfront property in the East Hamptons, and more properties across the United States and Australia. Their agreement also secures Furness continued healthcare coverage and medical child support. She and Jackman share two adopted kids, Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19. The agreement, when signed by a judge, will end the bargaining between the former couple that ultimately became bitter after Furness argued for more of the X-Men star's fortune. Just after she officially filed to divorce Jackson, Furness characterized their split by 'betrayal' with a statement. 'My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal,' she told Daily Mail. 'It's a profound wound that cuts deep,' she added, explaining that her belief in a 'higher power' helped her 'navigate the breakdown of an almost three-decade marriage.' The couple's separation had seemed amicable before then, as their joint statement said their 'wonderful, loving marriage' was ending because their 'journey now is shifting, and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.' The 'betrayal' could easily refer to Foster, 50—Jackman's younger new flame. Foster filed for divorce from her husband of ten years, screenwriter Ted Griffin, in October 2024, just as rumors of her romance with Jackman heated up. Their divorce was filed uncontested, reported Page Six. As Jackman and Furness have reached an agreement about who gets what out of Jackman's massive fortune, their divorce is now uncontested as well, per Daily Mail sources.

Hugh Jackman's Friend Weighs In After Deborra-Lee Furness' 'Betrayal' Statement
Hugh Jackman's longtime friend has shared an update on the actor after his ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness blasted their split as a 'traumatic journey of betrayal.' Appearing on Thursday's episode of Australia's 'Ben Fordham Live' radio show, Gus Worland weighed in on Furness' comments that described a tumultuous ending to her marriage with Jackman. Worland, a TV and radio personality, said he's been close to Jackman since the pair attended kindergarten together in 1973. 'It's not just [Furness'] statement, but just the last couple of years have been difficult,' Worland said. 'One thing that I've been really strict on, or disciplined on ... is to let them do what they've had to do.' Furness, 69, filed for divorce from Jackman, 56, on May 23 after the pair initially announced that they were amicably separating in 2023. The former couple, who share children Ava and Oscar, had been married for 27 years after tying the knot in 1996. In a seemingly 180 move from the couple's 2023 announcement, Furness this week shared a scathing statement with People. 'My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal,' Furness told the outlet, adding the split was 'a profound wound that cuts deep.' Speaking on the radio show, Worland said, 'No one wants anyone to go through what they've been through, and, of course, they go through everything publicly because of the type of people and the fame that they have.' Worland then gave an update on how the 'Deadpool & Wolverine' star has apparently been doing amid the messy divorce. 'I was over in New York with [Jackman] just last month, and he's fine. He is going along well. He's moving on with his life, and I hope that Deb does as well,' he said. Noting that the couple were together 'a long, long time,' Worland added that his priority is making sure that Jackman and Furness' kids 'get through this.' 'I just go to the kids and go, 'What can we do to make sure that they're going to get through this as well as possible?'' said Worland, who added he and Jackman are godparents to each other's first children. Jackman has been romantically linked to his former 'Music Man' co-star Sutton Foster, 50, since earlier this year. Foster and Jackman went public with their romance in January after they were spotted holding hands on a dinner date in California. Foster and Jackman's PDA-filled night caused a stir online, considering a source claimed to Us Weekly in November 2024 that Foster and Jackman's relationship is the 'reason Hugh and Deb got divorced.' Rumors had circulated that the two Broadway stars became close while starring in the musical revival. The insider claimed there was 'an affair and overlap' but that many people on Broadway 'kept it quiet.' 'A lot of people on Broadway knew, and we kept it quiet because both of them are so nice and great people,' the source alleged. 'Everyone respected their privacy. But there was an affair and overlap.' Meanwhile, Foster filed for divorce from her husband, Ted Griffin, in October 2024 after 10 years of marriage.

Hugh Jackman's ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness hints at 'betrayal' as she files for divorce after 2 years of separation
Following 2 years of separation, Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness' official divorce proceedings are finally under way. In her first formal address of the situation, in an exclusive statement to Daily Mail, Deborra details her ebb and flow of healing, especially after having withstood "betrayal". "My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal. However I believe in a higher power and that God/the universe, whatever you relate to as your guidance, is always working FOR us. This belief has helped me navigate the breakdown of an almost three-decade marriage", she reflects, having "gained much knowledge and wisdom" as she navigates this new phase of her life. Calling the demise of her 27-year long marriage with Hugh, "a profound wound that cuts deep", she adds, "Even when we are presented with apparent adversity, it is leading us to our greatest good, our true purpose. It can hurt, but in the long run, returning to yourself and living within your own integrity, values and boundaries is liberation and freedom". Her one big takeaway? — "...none of this is personal". She elaborates, "We are all on our individual journeys and I believe that the relationships in our lives are not random. We are drawn to people, we invite them in, in order to learn our lessons and to recognize and heal the broken parts of ourselves...I remain grateful". Hugh and Deborra tied the knot on April 11, 1996. After 27 years of marriage, the duo announced the news of their separation in September 2023. Their exclusive statement to PEOPLE read, "We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth". Hugh and Deborra share children Oscar, 24, and Ava 19, the former having been adopted in 2000 and the latter in 2005. As far as Hugh's healing goes, he was spotted hand-in-hand, in what appeared to be a lowkey Santa Monica dinner date with his Music Man co-star Sutton Foster, earlier this year in January.
