Deborra-Lee Furness shares life update after divorce

Deborra-Lee Furness has broken her silence for the first time since photos emerged of Hugh Jackman's new relationship with his co-star Sutton Foster.
Furness revealed that she feels as though she is now in “chapter three” of her life following her shock split from Jackman in 2023.
Speaking about focusing on her career over her love life, she told the Herald Sun, “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 went on to share that she’ll be taking more time for herself now she’s single and able to focus on herself first.
“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.”
This is the first time she has spoken publicly since her ex-husband debuted his new relationship, although a source allegedly close to Furness said she felt "a sense of relief" when Jackman and Foster's relationship was announced.
The source told the Daily Mail, “She has been plagued with suspicions. She was told it wasn’t true, and that they were nothing more than close friends who worked together. But something in her heart told her that this was not true."
“She trusted her intuition and her intuition was right. She finally feels at ease after getting confirmation that her fears and suspicions were warranted. She can now fully close this chapter and move on.”
Jackman and Furness announced their separation after 27 years of marriage in September 2023.
The former couple have two adult children, Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19.
