Hugh Jackman’s VERY cheeky post resurfaces as he goes public with his new girlfriend Sutton Foster after split with Deborra-Lee Furness amid ‘affair’ rumours
A diet joke that Hugh Jackman shared almost a decade ago has resurfaced after he went public with his new romance with Sutton Foster.
The Australian actor took to X in 2015 to share a photo of himself sitting on a table while staring at a plate of cookies.
The muscular star ran off Shakespeare and mused ‘to cheat or not to cheat – that is the question?!’ – referring a person who consumes a ‘cheat’ meal while on a diet.
But some social media users have taken the completely innocent post to jokingly take it out of context.
Instead, they compared the post to widespread ‘affair’ rumors surrounding the end of his long-term marriage to Deborra-Lee Furness – joking that the post was ‘aging poorly’.
Ny Breaking Australia is not suggesting the affair rumors are true, just that netizens are making light-hearted fun of reports of Hugh’s love life.

Hugh officially opened up to Sutton Foster on Wednesday, more than a year after his shock split from wife Deborra-Lee.
Going public after months of speculation, Hugh and Sutton looked happier than ever on a date night as they held hands and laughed together.
Hugh and Sutton previously shared the stage on Broadway when they starred in a critically acclaimed production of the classic musical The Music Man in 2022.

Hugh and Sutton decided to finally make their romance public this week, as they are no longer “interested in hiding their love.”

“They both wanted to be considerate of their exes and anyone who might be upset, but they’re not interested in hiding.
‘Hugh’s close friends have seen a rejuvenated glow in him and it’s all thanks to Sutton.’

However, Hugh’s ex-wife Deb, 69, is said to be ‘relieved’ when she saw the pictures of the couple, with insiders saying she can now finally move on.
“Deborra-Lee feels a sense of relief to be honest with you,” a source told DailyMail.com exclusively.
“She can now completely close this chapter and move on.”
