While the holidays are officially behind us, Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster seem to still be in getaway mode. The pair were spotted over the weekend basking in the sun on a tropical vacation in Costa Rica, sharing a rare off-duty moment away from the spotlight.
The two were photographed waist-deep in the ocean around sunset, wrapped in each other’s arms and completely at ease. In several moments, Jackman stood behind Foster, holding her close as waves rolled in. In others, she watched with a smile as he dove playfully into the water, the pair clearly enjoying the privacy and freedom of the moment.
For the beach outing, Jackman kept things relaxed in navy swim trunks decorated with a hibiscus flower print from Okanui. Foster matched the laid-back vibe in a coordinated navy swim set featuring a bralette-style top and a matching skirt. She wore her hair pulled up into a casual topknot, adding to the effortless vacation look.
Their story began years before romance was ever involved. Jackman and Foster grew close while starring in the 2021 Broadway revival of The Music Man, but their history stretches back even further — with photos of them together dating to 2008, the year they first met through theater.
Before their relationship began, both experienced major shifts in their personal lives. Jackman separated from his wife of 27 years, Deborra-lee Furness, in 2023, while Foster finalized her divorce from screenwriter Ted Griffin the following year after ten years of marriage.
Just one month later, whispers began circulating that Jackman and Foster had grown closer. By January 2025, they were spotted together on an outing, confirming what many had suspected. Since then, the pair have been openly dating, slowly stepping into the public eye together — and their Costa Rica escape suggests they’re more comfortable than ever.
