Deborra-Lee Furness files to divorce Hugh Jackman 2 years after split
Furness, 69, filed for divorce on Friday in Suffolk County Supreme Court, according to court documents obtained by TMZ.
The outlet reports the divorce will be finalized once the judge signs off on the complaint and other documents Furness submitted — filings regarding continuing health care coverage, a medical child support order, the New York State child support registry form, the exes' settlement deal, a proposed judgement of divorce and official certificate of dissolution.
The 'Deadpool & Wolverine' star and award-winning 'Shame' actress met in 1995, working on the Australian miniseries 'Correlli,' and married the following year. They later adopted son Oscar and daughter Ava, now 25 and 19 respectively.
In September 2023, the couple announced their separation in a joint statement to People.
'We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,' the actors said at the time. 'Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth. … We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love and kindness.'
Jackman sparked romance rumors with his 'Music Man' co-star Sutton Foster as far back as 2022, though the Broadway stars only confirmed their relationship earlier this year.
Furness' filing comes seven months after 50-year-old Foster filed to divorce screenwriter Ted Griffin in October, after a decade of marriage. The exes share daughter Emily, whom they also welcomed via adoption.
Prior to Griffin, Foster was married to fellow Broadway veteran Christian Borle, who, like Jackman and the 'Thoroughly Modern Millie' actress, has won two Tony Awards.

Hulk Hogan's wife Sky breaks silence after his death in heartbreaking post
Hulk Hogan's wife, Sky, has shared an emotional statement about his death. The former wrestler died Thursday at the age of 71, after medics were reportedly called to his home in Clearwater, Florida. While a cause of death hasn't been revealed, TMZ reported he experienced 'cardiac arrest.' Sky, who married Hulk in 2023, broke her silence Friday on Instagram, sharing a sweet picture of herself kissing him on the cheek. In the caption, she also shared details about his physical health before his death. 'I wasn't ready for this…and my heart is in pieces,' Sky, 46, wrote. 'He had been dealing with some health issues, but I truly believed we would overcome them. I had so much faith in his strength. I thought we still had more time. 'This loss is sudden and impossible to process,' she continued. 'To the world, he was a legend… but to me, he was my Terry. The man I loved. My partner. My heart.' She added that her husband loved his fans a great deal, 'despite his growing physical discomfort.' 'He did everything he could to show up, sign autographs, take photos, and connect with the people who supported him through it all. You meant everything to him,' Sky continued. 'He was a believer in Christ, and I take comfort knowing his soul is at peace and he's been welcomed home.' 'Please keep his family and all of us who loved him in your prayers as we try to navigate this new reality,' she concluded. The yoga instructor got engaged to Hulk in July 2023, after a year of dating. They officially tied the knot in September 2023. Sky was Hulk's third wife. The WWE legend was married to Linda Hogan from 1993 to 2009 and then to Jennifer McDaniel from 2010 to 2021. He and Linda shared two children, Brooke, 37, and Nick, 36. However, Brooke has been estranged from her parents for nearly a decade. Only days before Hulk's death, Linda shared a throwback photo with her ex-husband. She posted a snap from 1996, when they attended a convention in Las Vegas. She simply captioned the post: 'The good old days !' Before meeting Hulk, Sky welcomed three children of her own, but she keeps their lives out of the spotlight. Born Terry Gene Bollea, Hulk skyrocketed to fame in the 1980s, bringing professional wrestling into the mainstream. He went on to become an eight-time WrestleMania headliner and six-time World Wrestling Entertainment champion, in addition to an actor and reality television personality. Hulk has been mourned by the WWE, fellow wrestlers, and political figures. On his Truth Social account, President Donald Trump issued a tribute to Hulk, who became a fixture during Trump's 2024 re-election campaign, appearing at the Republican National Convention to appeal to voters. 'We lost a great friend today, the 'Hulkster.' Hulk Hogan was MAGA all the way — Strong, tough, smart, but with the biggest heart,' Trump wrote. He continued: 'He gave an absolutely electric speech at the Republican National Convention, that was one of the highlights of the entire week. He entertained fans from all over the World, and the cultural impact he had was massive.'

Justin Bieber Licensed Paparazzi Video of Him Yelling at Photogs for New Album 'Swag'
Justin Bieber's chugging a giant pint of irony -- after raging out at paparazzi, he's now paying them to create content for new album, "SWAG" ... TMZ has learned. It's a pretty stunning plot twist ... the singer-songwriter made a deal with a photo agency to use the audio from a video shot last month, where he lashed out at the paparazzi for shooting him as he left a restaurant. We're told Bieber's camp made the photo agency sign an NDA ... so, their representatives aren't allowed to discuss terms of the deal, such as how much JB paid. The clip of that angry exchange appears in his new song, "STANDING ON BUSINESS" ... a reference to the viral video where the Biebs -- a blue hoodie and sweats -- wearing screamed that phrase at the paps on the street. In the video, he tells them he's a father, and he deserves a little more respect ... before telling someone mouthing off to him that he's standing 10 toes down in this situation. 'STANDING' starts with the audio from that exchange, before influencer Druski jumps in and corrects Bieber's pronunciation -- to make him more fearsome to his photog foes. Bottom line ... Bieber ultimately made a deal with his enemy. Ya could say he spent the money to reclaim his voice -- but the photo agency's taking his check to the bank, so they're winners too.
