Share and Follow

After enduring nearly two years filled with emotional challenges, it seems Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness have finally found a way to reconcile.

The pair, once considered Hollywood’s golden couple, shocked the world with their unexpected split in September 2023. Now, they appear to be working on rebuilding their friendship after a tumultuous period.

Deborra-Lee, 69, stunned fans earlier this year when she described the breakdown of her nearly 30-year marriage as a ‘traumatic betrayal’ that ‘cut deep’.

This was an unusually candid remark from the Australian actress, who, like Jackman, had maintained a dignified public demeanor since their 2023 separation.

Recent reports indicate that the Wolverine star has been quietly making efforts to repair his relationship with his former spouse.

‘Hugh has been trying to make peace with Debs for a long while now, but as you can imagine, it has taken her time to feel ready,’ an insider recently told Radar Online.

‘Settling all the legal stuff seems to have helped because she’s finally coming around – they’ve gotten together a couple of times in New York recently to talk things out.

‘By all accounts things have improved dramatically, which is fantastic for everyone, most of all their kids.’

They added that now that the divorce had been finalised, the former couple are both open to maintaining an amicable friendship.

‘It’s been two years now since they officially separated. It really is time to let the hatred and anger go,’ they said.

In June, the pair finalised their divorce a month after filing, Daily Mail exclusively revealed.

A judgment of divorce was filed on June 12, making it official. The document, however, wasn’t made public until June 23.

Prior to the judgment being entered, two other documents were filed on June 10 – a ‘Qualified Medical Child Support Order’, regarding children’s insurance, and ‘Findings of Fact/Conclusions of Law.’

The divorce had effectively been settled some time ago, but the judge’s final sign-off was required to make it official.

Deb, who shares two adopted children with the Wolverine actor, will receive a payout, according to an insider who previously spoke to Daily Mail.

‘A settlement was reached that Deborra is pleased with, which includes a handsome spousal support payment,’ they revealed.

‘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 – it gives closure that she needed.’

In May, Daily Mail exclusively broke the news of them filing for divorce to officially terminate their 27-year marriage.

Deborra filed the complaint in New York on May 23 and, per the filings, everything has been ironed out behind the scenes.

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,’ another source told Daily Mail.

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

Hugh has been dating his former The Music Man co-star Sutton Foster for months, although the timeline of when they began dating has never been confirmed.

The pair are said to be ignoring any negative talk about their romance, which some fans believed started as an affair while he was still married, and are ‘looking to move forward’ with their relationship.
