Deborra-Lee Furness reportedly feels sorry for Sutton Foster as the actress spends time in the homes she once shared with Hugh Jackman. The former couple’s $15 million North Bondi penthouse has become part of Jackman’s time with his new girlfriend. But an insider claims Deborra finds the situation more amusing than upsetting.
Deborra-Lee Furness reportedly pities Sutton over Hugh’s former marital home
Jackman has been showing Foster around Sydney. The pair were recently spotted together on the balcony of his North Bondi property. However, according to a source speaking to New Idea, Furness has mixed feelings about seeing another woman in the spaces she once shared with her former husband.
The insider said, “Deb finds the whole thing laughable, and part of her feels sorry for Sutton having to live in her and Hugh’s old marital homes.”
“She and Hugh lived a lifetime together, and there’s not an inch of Bondi or New York penthouses that hasn’t got her touch on it,” the insider added.
Meanwhile, the couple’s New York penthouse has reportedly struggled to find a buyer. It features four ensuite bedrooms, a library, a professional-grade kitchen, a sauna and 3,700 square feet of outdoor space. However, Jackman is said to be keen on keeping his Sydney home.
Although Furness is trying not to appear affected, another source claims the situation still hurts. “She doesn’t want to be painted as the bitter ex-wife, which is why she’s putting on such a ‘who cares?’ facade,” the source explained. “But it’s not easy to see another woman in her old home – with her ‘formerly forever guy’.”
Nevertheless, Furness reportedly has no interest in rekindling her relationship with the Wolverine star. She was recently seen having a deep conversation with fellow Australian singleton Isla Fisher in London. An insider suggested she is enjoying a new sense of independence.
The source said, “There are time that she feels Sutton’s living her life.” And added, “But Deb is at the point now where she would never go back.”
In the meantime, Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster have been making the most of their time in Australia.
