Hugh Jackmans Wedding Plans Face Major Setback

Hugh Jackman's wedding plans with his girlfriend Sutton Foster have reportedly hit a snag, Deborra-Lee Furness on board.

The Hollywood star has reportedly proposed to Foster, 50, his former Broadway co-star, but sources say the road to the altar is far from simple, according to the National Enquirer.

Jackman, 57, and Furness, 70, finalised their divorce in June,

The couple, long seen as one of Hollywood's strongest pairings, share two adopted children, Oscar, 25, and Ava, 20.

Rumours have circulated that Jackman before his marriage ended, though nothing has been confirmed.

Months after the divorce was finalised, Jackman and Foster made their red-carpet debut as a couple, signalling that their professional partnership had .

Entertainment outlets have reported the pair were moving quickly towards engagement, with New Idea claiming Jackman has 'finally popped the question'.

But not everyone in Jackman's circle is on board, as the National Enquirer quotes an unnamed source saying his children remain 'steadfastly loyal' to Furness and are, at least for now, struggling to celebrate their father's next chapter.

'Even though Hugh is excited to start this next chapter with Sutton, he has to be sensitive to his kids. They're incredibly protective of their mother... he wants to be respectful of that,' the source said.

The insider insists their presence is key to the actor, who wouldn't want to celebrate without them present.

'Hugh really wants his kids at the wedding. They both want their loved ones with them to celebrate,' they said.

So far, neither Jackman, Foster, Furness, nor their representatives have commented publicly on the reported engagement.

Last month, a new report claimed a wedding between  and  was imminent.
