Deborra-Lee is reportedly planning to release a no-holds-barred ‘divorce diary’ detailing her painful split from Hugh and the heartbreak that followed.
The Australian actress is said to be currently documenting her emotional roller-coaster journey, with plans to publish the memoir once her divorce from the Wolverine star is legally finalised, according to New Idea.
‘Deb’s been desperate to have her side of the story out there,’ an alleged source told the outlet.
‘She’s been writing down all her thoughts, the good and the bad, and logging every detail of this ugly roller-coaster divorce. As soon as her lawyers allow it, she will be talking to publishers about a deal.’
Hugh and Deborra-Lee’s split appeared to turn bitter when she spoke about her ‘traumatic journey of betrayal’ in the wake of her divorce filing last month.
‘My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal,’ she said.
‘It’s a profound wound that cuts deep. However, I believe in a higher power and that God/the universe, whatever you relate to as your guidance, is always working FOR us.’

‘This belief has helped me navigate the breakdown of an almost three-decade marriage.’
She continued: ‘I have gained much knowledge and wisdom through this experience. Even when we are presented with apparent adversity, it is leading us to our greatest good, our true purpose.
‘It can hurt, but in the long run, returning to yourself and living within your own integrity, values and boundaries is liberation and freedom.’
She concluded her statement with the ‘one thing’ she has learned, which is ‘that none of this is personal.’
Deb’s emotional declaration signalled a turning point in what had largely been a quiet and dignified separation – until now.
Sources claim that while Deb is remaining composed publicly, behind closed doors she’s preparing to reclaim her narrative with a raw and honest memoir that could shine a spotlight on Hugh’s new romance with Broadway star Sutton Foster.
The New Idea insider added that the actress won’t be holding back: ‘She won’t be silenced. This is her truth.’
Daily Mail Australia reached out to Deborra-Lee Furness for comment.

It comes as MailOnline revealed that Hugh and Deborra-Lee have put their (UK£28million) New York apartment on the market amid their messy divorce.
Realtor.com reports that the former couple is offloading the stunning five-bedroom ‘triplex’ apartment in the West Village that they purchased back in 2008 for AU$32million (UK £23million).
The penthouse boasts an eye-watering 1000 sqm of floor space and spans the top three floors of a glass tower overlooking the Hudson River.
The three floors are connected via a spiral staircase, and the luxe abode also boasts seven bathrooms.
It also features a library, private sauna and an indoor gym, while the kitchen boasts a massive island bench, stainless steel appliances and plenty of cabinet space.
Designed by lauded architect Richard Meier, the property is described as a ‘modernist masterpiece’.
The main bedroom, meanwhile, occupies an entire floor and includes a luxurious spa bath and dressing area.
Hugh and Deborra-Lee tried to offload the apartment back in 2022 but paused the sale in favour of putting it on the rental market.
