Deborra-Lee Furness has officially filed for divorce from her ex Hugh Jackman, nearly two years after they announced their shock split.

DailyMail.com has learned that Furness officially filed a complaint in New York on May 23. According to the filings, all issues have been resolved privately.

Additional documents submitted by Furness’ lawyer, Elena Karabatos, in the divorce proceedings include a notice about the continuation of health care coverage, a proposed qualified medical child support order, a New York state case registry form for reporting child support orders, the settlement, a proposed judgment of divorce, and a certificate of dissolution.

All that needs to be done now is for the judge to sign off on the judgment.

Having two adopted children with the Wolverine actor, Furness has reportedly received a substantial spousal support payment. An insider revealed that the couple is parting ways amicably after 27 years of marriage, with no drama expected.

‘A settlement was reached that Deborra is pleased with which includes a handsome spousal support payment,’ a source exclusively told DailyMail.com. 

‘There was some back and forth regarding this financial agreement but, in the end, she got what she believed she deserved. Both are coming out of this financially secure. 

‘There is not going to be any drama with this gives closure that she needed.’ 

A separate source said the divorce is ‘non contested,’ meaning there was not a major disagreement between the couple divorcing.

‘They have worked out the details in advance and everything is ironed out in terms of a settlement, alimony and the expenses for the future of their children,’ they said.

‘They are amicable and they are both fully committed to being the best parents that they can be.’

They added that Jackman, who is dating Sutton Foster and was seen walking hand-in-hand with her days before the filing, is ‘looking forward to the future and not looking back.’ 

Back in January, DailyMail.com exclusively reported that the estranged spouses had yet to file as their decision to dismiss a prenup was proving to be a point of contention.

A source told DailyMail.com, ‘While he didn’t physically cheat on her with Sutton, Deborra-Lee believes they were having an emotional affair and she feels he betrayed her’

Insiders at the time claimed that their split could get ‘messy’ as they were struggling to divvy up their estimated $250 million fortune.

‘One of the biggest reasons why they haven’t yet filed is that they never had a prenup,’ an insider close to Jackman said. 

‘When they got married, they thought it would be forever. Who doesn’t? At the time, neither of them expected Hugh’s career to get as enormous as it has.

‘Because there was no prenup, and he made a fortune during their marriage, this divorce is not going to be cut and dry. It may even get messy because the stakes are high. A lot of moving parts need to be worked out and there is a huge amount of money involved.’

The insider insisted they both wanted to ‘make this as easy as possible,’ but that after three decades and one partner becoming a massive A-list star, ‘it’s not quite that easy.’

In March, the divorce was brewing but they struggled to reach an agreement on how to divide their assets, a source revealed to DailyMail.com.

‘Hugh and Deborra-Lee have not yet filed for divorce because they are struggling to reach an agreement on how to divide their assets,’ a source said. ‘Deborra-Lee feels entitled to more money than Hugh is willing to offer.’

Her insistence on getting a bigger chunk of their estimated fortune was said to be fueled by the murky origins of his romance with Foster.

‘While he didn’t physically cheat on her with Sutton, Deborra-Lee believes they were having an emotional affair and she feels he betrayed her,’ the source continued.

Their marriage started to fall apart during Covid, as previously reported by DailyMail.com, around the same time that Jackman struck up a friendship with Foster, his costar on the 2022 Broadway revival of The Music Man. She was married to Ted Griffin at the time (Griffin and Foster are also in the midst of finalizing their divorce).

Furness and Jackman announced the end of their marriage in a shock statement in September 2023, telling fans that they were ‘shifting’ and as a result had decided to ‘separate to pursue our individual growth’.

Soon followed rumblings that Jackman had struck up a relationship with Foster, with the pair finally confirming their romance in January in what fans claimed was a staged picture opportunity as they left a Los Angeles restaurant hand-in-hand.

Furness and Jackman met back in 1995 on Australian TV show Correlli, when she was a major star, and he was enjoying his first role fresh out of drama school.

He proposed four months later, telling Today in 2018 that he knew two weeks into meeting Furness that they were ‘going to be together for the rest of our lives.’

They were married in Melbourne, Australia, in April 1996 before adopting their son Oscar, now 24, in 2000. Five years later they completed their family unit when they adopted daughter Ava, 19.

Since tying the knot, Jackman has amassed an eye watering fortune, estimated to be around $200 million, thanks to his turn as Wolverine in Marvel’s blockbuster comic book franchise.

He retired the role in Logan in 2017 before reprising the character – and hijacking the box office – last year with Deadpool and Wolverine alongside his close friend Ryan Reynolds.

He’s currently performing in an off-Broadway play, Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes, alongside Ella Beatty, Warren Beatty and Annette Bening’s daughter.

The actor swears liberally, speaks graphically about sex and engages in multiple steamy make-out sessions with his 25-year-old co-star.
