Hugh Jackman’s two 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren reportedly feel guilty for welcoming his rumoured new girlfriend, Sutton Foster, into their family.

One year after the actor’s split from his wife of 27 years, Deborra-Lee Furness, the couple’s kids Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19, are adjusting to splitting time between their famous Australian parents.

They are also struggling to come to terms with how to interact with their father’s new flame.

‘It’s been hard for the kids, having to welcome Sutton into their father’s world with their own mixed feelings about it, while at the same time feeling guilty if they get too close,’ a source told Woman’s Day.

‘It’s all getting a bit messy but Hugh’s hoping time heals all wounds so if they can get through this holiday season without any big blow-ups, they’ll be in smoother waters coming into the new year.’

Hugh, 56, is currently in Australia spending the holidays with his son Oscar and daughter Ava. It is unclear if their mother Deb is also returning Down Under for Christmas.

The trio – who live in New York – are likely staying at his stunning $12million North Bondi penthouse.

While Hugh is enjoying an Aussie Christmas with his kids, Sutton is back in Los Angeles performing in the stage production of Once Upon A Mattress.

Hugh and Sutton’s romance has reportedly continued to flourish away from the spotlight, with the pair reaching a heartwarming family milestone with Sutton’s adopted daughter, seven.

‘Hugh has met Sutton’s daughter Emily – she even calls him ‘Uncle Hugh’!’ a source told New Idea this week.

However, Hugh’s ex-wife, Deb, is said to have been ‘seething with rage’ over the pair’s rumoured new romance.

Hugh and Deb, 69, confirmed their separation after almost three decades together in September 2023, and he is now said to be dating Broadway star Sutton, 49.

It has been claimed that Deb was enraged at being ‘the last to know’ about the relationship.

According to Radaronline, Deb was especially unimpressed with Hugh’s close friend Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively, who both allegedly ‘kept quiet’ about the rumoured romance.

‘They kept their lips sealed out of loyalty to Hugh,’ a source told the publication.

‘Now she is seething with rage over being the last to know, Deb feels blindsided. She has a memory like a steel trap and isn’t afraid to use it.

‘Debs feels cheated by all three because someone could have told her what was happening and they all chose to keep their mouths shut,’ they added.

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Deb and Ryan’s representatives for comment.

Hugh and Sutton took on the roles of Harold Hill and Marian Paroo in The Music Man, which ran from February 2022 to January 2023 at the Winter Garden Theatre in Manhattan.

The pair have attended public events together, stepping out at the opening night of their show The Music Man on Broadway in February 2022.

In September 2023, Hugh shocked fans when he filed for divorce from Deb.

‘We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,’ the couple said in a joint statement.

‘Our journey now is shifting, and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.’

Meanwhile, Sutton filed for divorce from husband Ted Griffin in October.

The Tony-winning Broadway star and the Ocean’s Eleven screenwriter, 53, split after 10 years of marriage, according to Page Six.

The Younger actress filed for uncontested divorce in New York County Supreme Court.
