Must read

Sutton Foster has filed for divorce from her husband, screenwriter Ted Griffin, after nearly 10 years of marriage.

The “Younger” actress, 49, filed for uncontested divorce in New York County Supreme Court on Tuesday, according to court documents obtained by The Post.

The split comes as Page Six reported Foster is moving on with “X-Men” star Hugh Jackman, who she met when they starred together in “The Music Man” on Broadway from 2021 to 2023.

“They are 100 percent together and are in love and want to spend the rest of their lives together,” a source told the outlet.

Foster and Griffin, 53, were married in October 2014.

Foster shares an adopted daughter, Emily, 7, with Griffin.

Several sources also claimed Foster and Jackman, 56, are still keeping their relationship a secret.

“They go out of their way to hide it, but it’s common knowledge,” the insider said.

Foster’s romance with Griffin began over a decade ago, following her divorce from her first husband, actor and singer Christian Borle, whom she was married to from 2006 to 2009.

The Tony Award winner got engaged to Griffin in August 2013, tying the knot the following year in a private ceremony in Santa Barbara, Calif.

Foster picked out her wedding dress on TLC’s “Say Yes to the Dress.”

Griffin wrote the screenplay for movies like “Ocean’s Eleven” and “Rumor Has It.”

In April 2017, the former couple announced they welcomed their daughter Emily via adoption.

“Our lives are forever changed, and our hearts are exploding,” Foster said about becoming a mom during a Broadway appearance at the time.

Foster shared in a 2021 essay for People that she struggled to get pregnant, even after going through several rounds of IVF.

“We had all these roadblocks, but as soon as we started pursuing adoption, it was like the roadblocks were going away,” she wrote, adding, “It was like our daughter was cannonballing towards us, and we just needed to get out of our own way.”

Jackman, meanwhile, saw his own marriage come to an end last year.

The “Deadpool & Wolverine” star filed for divorce from Deborra-Lee Furness, 68, in Sept. 2023 after 27 years as husband and wife.

“We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,” the exes said in a joint statement.

“Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth. Our family has been and always will be our highest priority. We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness,” they added.

Jackman and Furness have two adopted children: son Oscar, 24, and daughter Ava, 19.
