Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster Enjoy PDA-Filled Beach Getaway

Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster escaped New York’s winter for a romantic New Year’s trip to tropical Costa Rica. The 57-year-old actor and his 50-year-old girlfriend were spotted enjoying a PDA-filled beach outing on Saturday, January 3.

Fans Spot an Odd Detail

Social media quickly lit up when eagle-eyed fans noticed a strange detail in the couple’s photos. Observers sparked rumors suggesting the images might be staged or even manipulated with AI technology. Some pointed out what appeared to be six fingers on Hugh’s hand in a few shots.

Other users disagreed, arguing the extra “finger” was just Foster’s skin visible in the photo.

Tropical Holiday Highlights

The couple reportedly flew to Costa Rica after celebrating an early Christmas in Manhattan. In the images, Foster wore a navy-blue bikini with a matching swim skirt, her hair tied in a bun. Jackman sported black-and-white tropical floral swim trunks, shirtless as he enjoyed the waves with Foster.

Photos captured multiple affectionate moments: Jackman holding Foster’s waist, her arms around his neck, and both smiling as they waded deeper into the ocean.

Social Media Reacts

Fans expressed mixed reactions. Some accused the pair of posing for paparazzi or staging their PDA, while others focused on the six-finger detail.

“Since when did Hugh have six fingers on one hand?” one user questioned. Another responded, “AI isn’t perfect!” Meanwhile, some praised the sharp-eyed observers for noticing the anomaly.

Comparisons to Jackman’s Past

The beach photos also drew comparisons to Jackman’s former wife, Deborra-Lee Furness. Fans noted similarities between these images and Jackman’s past outings with Deborra, including holding hands and running through waves.

“Photos just like this with his wife… Lost respect for him when he traded in his wife for a new one,” one fan commented.

Official Debut and Past Drama

Jackman and Foster began dating after finalizing their divorces in 2025. They made their official red carpet debut in October 2025 at the AFI Fest premiere of Song Sung Blue in Hollywood.

A source close to Foster told People magazine, “They’re in love and genuinely excited to walk the carpet together. The drama is behind them, and they’ve built a strong foundation of trust.”

Moving Forward

Despite online speculation, Jackman and Foster appear happy and affectionate. Their New Year’s getaway showcases a couple enjoying the moment, even amid the scrutiny of social media observers.
