Sydney: Actors Hugh Jackman and Deborrah Lee Furness have officially finalised their divorced, ending their almost two-decade-long marriage.
Online court records from New York's Suffolk County Supreme Court show that a judgment of divorce was filed on June 12, and later uploaded to the website on Monday, June 23. The case status is now listed as ‘Disposed,’ reports People.
Furness, 69, filed for divorce from Jackman, 56, on May 27, roughly two years after the pair initially announced they had amicably ended their marriage in September 2023.
Her divorce filing indicated the terms of their divorce were uncontested and would only need a sign-off from a judge.
While the couple had said that their split was amicable, Furness later accused Jackman of “betrayal”, and said “My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal.”
Jackman said that Furness remarks were “disappointing”, believing that there was an “unwritten understanding” that the two would not bash each other in public, and settle their divorce on good terms.
Furness' divorce filing and statement came about four months after Jackman and Sutton Foster, who co-starred on Broadway in ‘The Music Man’ in 2022, made their romance public.
