It comes just days after reports that the Wolverine actor could spend part of Christmas without his children due to his new rumored relationship with actress Sutton Foster.
The Australian star reportedly wanted to introduce his girlfriend to children Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19, but his ex Deborra-Lee Furness is said not to be ‘enthusiastic about the idea’.
“It will take more time for loved ones to adjust to the new normal and that means Hugh and Sutton are bracing themselves for much less time together than they would like over the holidays,” an insider said. Women’s Day.
The source claimed that Deb feels like Hugh is “moving on quickly” because she has “given so much of herself to their marriage” and doesn’t want a “mixed” Christmas.
“It’s a delicate balancing act and he feels like if anyone is spending less time with the kids this year, it’s him,” she added.
The insider explained that Hugh and Sutton are determined to make their relationship work and are keeping things low key at the moment.
Last month, reports emerged that Hugh’s close relationship with Broadway star Sutton, 49, contributed to the end of his long-term marriage to Deb.

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 Theater in Manhattan.
“Sutton and Hugh’s relationship is the reason Hugh and Deb [separated]a source close to Foster told Us Weekly.
The couple has already attended public events together and appeared smitten during the opening night of their show The Music Man on Broadway in February 2022.
Reports claim their affair on the show was ‘Broadway’s worst kept secret’ and now it’s claimed the ‘really happy’ couple are keen to take their relationship public.
It comes after sources revealed to DailyMail.com that Furness raised concerns about the pair teaming up for the Broadway production in 2022 – a year before Jackman announced the end of their 27-year marriage.
“Deborra-Lee had her suspicions when Hugh started working with Sutton,” a source previously said. “Their relationship is no secret to her.”
The rumored couple spoke publicly about each other and both admitted it was “a dream come true” to work together in resurfaced interviews.
Foster spoke highly of the “incredibly kind and generous” Jackman to Vogue when asked about their professional relationship, saying that “he’s now become one of my best friends,” before adding that “we just spent Memorial Day with our families have spent. It’s really nice to meet new friends after forty.’

Jackman shocked fans when he filed for divorce from Furness last September.
“We have been blessed to have had a beautiful, loving marriage together as husband and wife for almost thirty years,” they shared in a joint statement at the time. “Our journey is now changing and we have decided to part ways to pursue our individual growth.”
Months later, rumors began to circulate that Foster and Jackman had become close, with insiders telling PageSix this week that they are now ‘in love’.
“They are 100 percent together, in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together,” an insider told the publication.
‘They’re still together. They do everything they can to hide it, but it’s common knowledge.’
