From Stage to Screen: A Love Story
For those who don’t know, Hugh and Sutton first met while working together on Broadway’s The Music Man. Their chemistry was undeniable, and it seems that spark has only grown stronger over time. They officially went public with their relationship on January 6 when they were spotted enjoying a romantic dinner date in Santa Monica. Walking hand-in-hand down the street afterward, they looked every bit the part of a couple deeply in love.
Hugh opted for a casual yet stylish look, pairing off-white trousers with a grey T-shirt and finishing it off with a classic black collared bomber jacket. Sutton, ever the elegant star, wore a stunning floor-length pine dress that peeked out from beneath her tan trench coat. These two know how to make a statement, even when dressed down for a quiet evening out.
Starting Fresh After Heartbreak
This new chapter marks a fresh start for both Hugh and Sutton, as they’ve each recently gone through significant life changes. Hugh and his ex-wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, ended their 27-year marriage in September 2023. In their joint statement, they honored their nearly three decades together, describing their union as a "wonderful, loving marriage." They explained that their journey was shifting, and they had decided to separate to focus on personal growth. Family remains their top priority, and they expressed gratitude and kindness as they embarked on this next chapter.
“Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness,” the statement read. “We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives. This is the sole statement either of us will make.”
Hugh and Sutton share adult children, Oscar Jackman and Ava Jackman, who are surely navigating this new phase alongside them.
Love Blossoms on Broadway
Rumors began swirling about Hugh and Sutton’s romance just three months after their respective splits. It seems their connection started during their time working together on The Music Man in 2020. An insider revealed that their romance was an "open secret" on Broadway, with Hugh reportedly being utterly smitten with Sutton from the moment they met.

“He followed her around like a puppy!” the source shared. Meanwhile, Sutton filed for divorce from her estranged husband, Ted Griffin, in October 2024, after a decade-long marriage. They had adopted a daughter, Emily, in 2017, making their split all the more poignant.
Though Sutton and Ted’s divorce process hasn’t moved forward much, it hasn’t stopped Hugh and Sutton from putting their relationship front and center. “Her connection with Hugh was something no one saw coming. They fell in love, plain and simple,” an insider told Closer in November 2024. “Now that Sutton and Hugh will both be divorced, they can confirm the truth. They are together.”
