Hugh Jackman’s latest public appearance with Sutton Foster may have looked glamorous on the surface, but major changes were unfolding behind the scenes long before the couple stepped onto the Met Gala carpet together.

Just weeks before confirming their relationship in front of cameras, the actor quietly made a significant financial move tied directly to his divorce from Deborra-Lee Furness.

Before Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster made headlines with their Met Gala debut, the actor reportedly took another major step toward separating his life from ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness.

The longtime Hollywood couple finalized their divorce in June 2025 after nearly three decades together, but several shared assets still needed to be divided. One of the biggest properties connected to the split was a luxury New York apartment the pair purchased together years earlier.

According to the Daily Mail, the Manhattan property quietly returned to the market on March 31, only weeks before Jackman appeared publicly with Foster at fashion’s biggest night.

Originally listed in 2022 for roughly $38.9 million, the sprawling apartment later received a dramatic price cut of approximately $10 million. The residence is now reportedly listed at $ 28.75 million.

Located in the upscale West Village neighborhood, the massive apartment stretches across three floors inside a luxury high-rise overlooking the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline.

Hugh Jackman’s Luxury Apartment Carries Years Of History

The property itself became symbolic of the life Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness once built together.

The former couple purchased the apartment in 2008 for around $21.1 million and later moved into another nearby Manhattan property in Chelsea.

The enormous residence spans more than 1,000 square meters and includes five bedrooms, six bathrooms, multiple living spaces, a library, a recreation room, and a professional gourmet kitchen.

The top floor reportedly features a lavish primary suite complete with a studio, sauna, spa bath, and large dressing areas.

Additional amenities inside the luxury building include a fitness center, concierge service, and a full-time doorman.

Reports surrounding the listing suggested the sale formed part of the former couple’s ongoing divorce settlement.

Meanwhile, Furness is said to have taken ownership of another shared New York property after reportedly buying out Jackman’s stake in a separate Manhattan penthouse valued at around $24 million.

Hugh Jackman And Sutton Foster Make Relationship Public

As property negotiations continued privately, Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster took a much more public step in their relationship.

The pair officially made their red carpet debut together at this year’s Met Gala after confirming their romance earlier in 2025.

Jackman arrived wearing a classic black tuxedo paired with a velvet jacket and polished dress shoes, while Foster stunned in a shimmering gold one-shoulder gown accessorized with a jeweled clutch.

Throughout the evening, photographers repeatedly captured the pair sharing affectionate glances and appearing completely comfortable together in front of cameras.

The appearance marked a major shift for Jackman, who attended the 2024 Met Gala alone following his separation from Furness and skipped the event entirely the following year during the height of the divorce fallout.

Before their split, Jackman and Furness had frequently attended the event together, with their final joint appearance taking place in 2023.

Fans Slam Hugh Jackman Over Met Gala Appearance

Not everyone reacted positively to Hugh Jackman’s public romance reveal with Sutton Foster.

Social media quickly filled with criticism from fans who felt uncomfortable seeing the actor appear publicly with a new partner so soon after the highly publicized end of his marriage.

Some commenters specifically defended Furness while questioning Jackman’s choices.

“Thumbs down! It’s forever team Debbie over here!!” one person wrote online.

Another simply commented, “Poor Deborra,” while another critic added, “Not a fan.”

The criticism intensified as more reactions surfaced throughout the night.

“I lost big respect for him,” one social media user admitted, while another bluntly wrote, “Yes, pathetic.”

Other critics labeled the Met Gala appearance “disrespectful” and “classless” as the debate around Jackman’s personal life continued to spread online.

Divorce Fallout Continues Around Hugh Jackman

Even though the divorce itself has officially been finalized, the ripple effects surrounding Hugh Jackman’s split from Deborra-Lee Furness continue drawing intense attention.

The former couple announced their separation in 2023 after 27 years of marriage, shocking fans who had long viewed them as one of Hollywood’s strongest relationships.

Since then, every development involving Jackman’s personal life has faced intense scrutiny, from his relationship with Foster to ongoing property decisions connected to the divorce settlement.

The relisting of the West Village apartment only added another emotional layer to the situation because of how closely tied the property was to their years together.

At the same time, Jackman’s increasingly public appearances with Foster signal that he is moving fully into a new chapter of his life, regardless of the criticism surrounding the transition.

Meghan Markle is throwing it back to mark her son Prince Archie’s 7th birthday!

The Duchess of Sussex, 44, shared an adorable baby photo of Archie to Instagram on Wednesday, May 6, as the little prince celebrated another turn around the sun.

In the pic, doting dad Prince Harry, 41, can be seen with baby Archie resting on his chest as he looks down dotingly at his firstborn.

Meghan didn’t leave Archie’s sister, Princess Lilibet, out of the social media celebration, however. In a second snap, shot from behind, Archie and Lilibet, 4, can be seen frolicking on the beach. Archie is seen with a stick in his hand.

“7 years later…happy birthday to our sweet boy 🤍,” Meghan captioned the post.

Meghan and Harry welcomed Archie in May 2019, just a year after they tied the knot at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.

Over the years, Meghan and Harry have selectively shared details about their little ones, although the royals are fiercely protective over their children’s privacy.

Meghan expressed her joy about motherhood last year during an episode of her “Confessions of a Female Founder” podcast.

“I love being a mom. Oh, my gosh, I love being a mom so much,” the royal said. “It’s my favorite thing. It is the thing where you’re like, ‘Oh, my gosh, I just need a break, I just need a minute,’ and then the second you step into the other room, you go, ‘Oh, let me just scroll through pictures of them endlessly on my phone.’”

Thank You!

“My husband’s like, ‘My love, can you just give yourself a minute? Why don’t you go work out? Why don’t you just go take a bath?’ I’m like, ‘I know. I just want a cuddle [from them],’” Meghan continued. “It’s the parenting paradigm where it is so full-on, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.”

Very vocal! Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are loving life with their son, Archie, and aren’t afraid to talk about their baby boy. The little one arrived in May 2019. “We are pleased to announce that Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex welcomed their firstborn child in the early morning on May […]

Meghan also spoke about juggling parenthood with running her growing lifestyle brand, As Ever.

“Lili still naps. She gets picked up early, and she naps … she only has a half day in preschool,” she said during an April 2025 episode of her podcast. “So if she wakes up and she wants to find me, she knows where to find me. Even if my door is closed to the office. She will be sitting there on my lap during one of these meetings with a grid of all the executives. And here we are.”

Right off the bat, I want to say, that Mufasa: The Lion King is superior to its 2019 predecessor. But the unfortunate truth is, that bar is very low. Like many people, I wasn’t the biggest fan of Jon Favreau’s The Lion King adaptation which felt soulless even though it was a massive box office success, it left people with a bitter taste in their mouth. So it was likely that we wouldn’t get a continuation of Simmba’s story, so that doesn’t leave many ways to tell another story in this universe. A prequel with a largely original story sounded like a decent direction to go in after The Lion King.

Barry Jenkins was certainly an unexpected but exciting choice for a blockbuster like this. He tries his best to breathe new life into the iconic Pride Lands by exploring the origins of Mufasa and Taka (who eventually goes on to become Scar). Jenkins, known for Moonlight and If Beale Street Could Talk, brings surprising emotional depth to what could have easily been a soulless cash grab. The facial emotions are significantly better this time and we actually get an idea of what the characters are going through. This also takes the weight off voice actors who had to do all the heavy lifting in the last one.

Technically, the movie is as stunning as expected. The breathtaking photorealistic visuals are back, with meticulous attention to every leaf, ripple of water, and blade of grass. The Pride Lands come alive in all their splendor, creating a visual experience that demands to be seen on the big screen. The character animations are fluid and much more expressive enough to evoke connection without sacrificing realism. Jenkins really tries to present a more profound emotional tone, exploring themes of family, loss, and legacy with more nuance than one might expect from a Disney blockbuster.

At its heart, the film focuses on the journey that shaped Mufasa into the king we know, and how two brothers turned into enemies. His journey takes very formulaic routes and hardly offers anything new. The brothers turned enemies story is also done multiple times and doesn’t surprise or impress at any point. The story has moments of beauty but struggles to get you invested or emotionally attached to it. The script is weak and definitely needed help from the visuals to bring the entertainment value. Thankfully the lack of novelty in the writing is partly compensated by the breath-taking visuals. There are some really impressive sequences that leave you impressed and engaged solely due to the cinematography.

But where Mufasa truly disappoints is in its music. Lin-Manuel Miranda is nowhere near his best and the sings are decent at best. Not a single song stayed with me once I left the screening. The middle portions of the film are particularly strong, offering intriguing subplots and emotional beats that elevate the narrative. Miranda is master at his work, but here he really struggles to get the beats right. The voice cast is solid across the board. Aaron Pierre captures Mufasa’s spirit, while Seth Rogen and Billy Eichner are as charming as ever. Kelvin Harrison Jr., struggles with his British accent.

Another aspect that the script gets wrong is the structure and character usage. It shouldn’t have taken the flashback storytelling route as it doesn’t work at all and only takes you out of Mufasa‘s story. It also never justifies the inclusions or Pumba and Timon, and they feel forced into the story. The final act feels emotionally satisfying but it really messes up Taka’s arc. His origin story is surprisingly underwhelming and frankly lazy. The story of his rivalry with Mufasa will remind you a lot of Transformers: One that came out earlier this year, and they did it way better. It’s also as if the writers hesitated to take bold narrative risks, instead settling for a resolution that feels too safe and familiar.

Mufasa: The Lion King is a visually stunning prequel that adds compelling world-building and heartfelt moments but struggles to justify its existence. The rushed narrative underdevelops key characters, and while Barry Jenkins’ thoughtful direction adds gravitas, it can’t overcome the contrived screenplay. The voicework is solid, but the music by Lin-Manuel Miranda is surprisingly underwhelming. It is superior to its 2019 predecessor, but the film still lacks the soul needed to truly roar with life.

Mufasa: The Lion King hits cinemas on December 20.

A year after the word-of-mouth success of the four-part series Adolescence, Netflix released the documentary film Louis Theroux: Into the Manosphere, which revisited similar themes. Now, some months later, Adolescence writer Jack Thorne finds himself returning to ideas of masculinity and power once again in another four-part series for Netflix. Well, to be precise, the series was acquired by Netflix for domestic release, but it was aired in its home country of the United Kingdom back in February on BBC One. The new series has been met with near-universal acclaim, and it has a Rotten Tomatoes score that’s only one point below that of Adolescence.

We’re talking, of course, about Lord of the Flies. The series was released domestically on May 4, and according to FlixPatrol, it has already found a spot for itself on the streamer’s viewership chart. It trails the runaway hit true-crime series Should I Marry a Murderer and the recently released action-thriller Man on Fire. But Lord of the Flies ranks ahead of the second season of Running Point and the six-part drama-thriller series Unchosen. Based on the classic 1954 novel by William Golding, Lord of the Flies follows a handful of boys — they’re played by Lox Pratt, David McKenna, Ike Talbut, and Winston Sawyer — stranded on a tropical island after a plane crash. They create a makeshift society that descends into chaos.

Jack Thorne’s New Show Has All the Makings of a Word-of-Mouth Sensation

Lord of the Flies currently holds a “Certified Fresh” 96% score on the aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, where the consensus reads, “Fleshing out William Golding’s text with thoughtful observations about boyhood and sharpened by a uniformly terrific troupe of child actors, this retelling of Lord of the Flies seizes the conch shell and commands attention.” By comparison, Adolescence is now sitting at a 97% score. In his review, Collider’s Shawn Van Horn noted Lord of the Flies‘ similarities to the recent series Yellowjackets and wrote, “If its four episodes had been a bit shorter, and a few changes to the source material had been reversed, Lord of the Flies could have achieved greatness; instead, it settles for being pretty good.” Incidentally, an animated adaptation of the similarly themed novel “Animal Farm” is currently playing in theaters, albeit not too successfully. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

“Real Housewives of Potomac” star Stacey Rusch was one of the select few reality stars honored with a recent cover story. Now, following the milestone, one of the former “RHOP” cast members, Candiace Dillard Bassett, is complimenting her and throwing a subtle jab at the veterans on the show who were not featured.

Dillard-Bassett took to her “Undomesticated” podcast in May 2026 to react to Rusch’s inclusion in Vulture’s “The Mastermind of Reality TV” issue. Notably, Rusch joined the show in 2024 and quickly became a fan favorite.

Regarding the honor, she said, “I have to give flowers to the people. Shout out to Stacey “QVC” Rusch. She was with the Vulture people.” After that, the new mom said, “I love Stacey. I love that she’s getting her flowers. I love that she’s getting her flowers.”

From there, the beloved reality star revealed that her husband, Chris Bassett, had pointed out that a newer cast member had been included instead of a veteran. According to her, “Where were they? Y’all let the new girl come in and get on the cover before ya’ll get on the cover.”

Dillard-Bassett Says Stacey Isn’t Faking Drama For ‘RHOP’

The commentary about “RHOP” continued with Dillard-Bassett’s cohost, Michael Arceneaux, noting that “Stacey has breathed new life into the show since other favorites have left, and she’s actually why I watch the show.”

The former Bravo star went on, “A lot of people love her. And she’s so easy-going about it. She’s so chill,” before stating that Rusch seems to be “having a good time.”

Later, she acknowledged that Rusch doesn’t seem to be “manufacturing the drama,” subtly hinting that this is a tactic taken up by other ladies on the show. She added, “When you just let it go and let it flow, you get the covers.

‘RHOP’ Fans Are Reacting

Following Dillard-Bassett’s comments about Rusch and “RHOP,” fans of the show weighed in. While some were positive, others accused the former cast member of being jealous. One person said, “Candiace and Stacey would get along so well. Aries and Sagittarius together is the perfect storm.”

A different fan claimed on X, “This girl swears she never watches anything #RHOP related, but she sure is leaving her commentary every week! Also, yeah, they’re on the 11th season… something you ain’t part of no more, honey boo boo.”

Someone else stated, “This woman was on the show for many seasons and never got a feature, either she needs to shut up.” A different social media user wrote, “And comments like these are the reason why everyone hates her.”

Lastly, another fan remarked, “Nothing for Ashley or Gizelle. Stacey deserves honesty.”

Candiace Left ‘RHOP’ In 2024

Dillard-Bassett joined “The Real Housewives of Potomac” in 2018 for its third season. She quickly became a fan favorite before departing in March 2024 ahead of the show’s 9th season.

She told PEOPLE, “As I embark on a new chapter after six remarkable years with The Real Housewives of Potomac, I am filled with gratitude for the enriching friendships, personal growth, and moments of introspection that have defined this journey.”

The reality star added, “With a whirlwind of new opportunities and responsibilities on my plate, I have decided to take a break from ‘RHOP.’ This is not a farewell, but a ‘see you later.’”

Roughly a month later, the “Driveback” singer announced that she and her husband were expecting their first child. She later admitted to Entertainment Tonight that her pregnancy was “95%” of the reason she left the show.

Dillard-Bassett stated, “I was really adamant about creating a space for not just the baby, but for me — for us — for this time in our lives. I wanted the space around us and around our child to feel peaceful and to feel free and to feel positive.”

She Recently Opened Up About Her New Music

Dillard-Bassett pursued her singing career while on “RHOP.” This led to her debut album, “Deep Space,” released in 2021, featuring the much-buzzed-about “Driveback.” Now, years later, she has a new single, “If Only,” which was released in February 2026.

Currently, she’s hard at work on her second studio album and preparing to join Tamar Braxton for a summer tour on select dates.
