Hugh suited up for the occasion in a black suit and tie, while his girlfriend wowed in a low-cut black satin dress.
She carried a black clutch and flashed a wide smile as she stood proudly beside the actor on his big night in Hollywood.
It comes after Radar Online claimed Hugh and his ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness, whose shock separation in September 2023 stunned Hollywood, have improved their relationship since their split.
Deborra-Lee stunned fans earlier this year when she described the breakdown of her nearly 30-year marriage as a ‘traumatic betrayal’ that ‘cut deep’.
It was a rare candid statement for the Australian actress who – like her ex-husband – had remained publicly dignified since their split in 2023.
Fresh reports suggest The Greatest Showman star has been attempting to repair his friendship with his ex-wife.
Hugh has been trying to make peace with Debs for a long while now, but as you can imagine, it has taken her time to feel ready,’ an insider recently told Radar Online.
‘Settling all the legal stuff seems to have helped because she’s finally coming around – they’ve gotten together a couple of times in New York recently to talk things out.

‘By all accounts things have improved dramatically, which is fantastic for everyone, most of all their kids.’
They added that now that the divorce had been finalized, the former couple are both open to maintaining an amicable friendship.
‘It’s been two years now since they officially separated. It really is time to let the hatred and anger go,’ they said.
In June, the pair finalized their divorce a month after filing, the Daily Mail exclusively revealed.
A judgment of divorce was filed on June 12, making it official. The document, however, wasn’t made public until June 23.
The divorce had effectively been settled some time ago, but the judge’s final sign-off was required to make it official.
Furness, who shares two adopted children with the Wolverine actor, will receive a payout, according to an insider who previously spoke to the Daily Mail.
‘A settlement was reached that Deborra is pleased with, which includes a handsome spousal support payment,’ they revealed.

‘There was some back and forth regarding this financial agreement but, in the end, she got what she believed she deserved. Both are coming out of this financially secure.
‘There is not going to be any drama with this – it gives closure that she needed.’
In May, the Daily Mail exclusively broke the news of them filing for divorce to officially terminate their 27-year marriage.
Furness filed the complaint in New York on May 23 and, per the filings, everything has been ironed out behind the scenes.
The divorce is ‘uncontested,’ meaning there was not a major disagreement between the couple divorcing.
Jackman has been dating his former The Music Man co-star Sutton Foster for months, although the timeline of when they began dating has never been confirmed.
