Hollywood A-lister spotted happily mingling with locals at trendy Bondi Beach café in Sydney

Hugh Jackman is back in Australia for the Christmas season. 

The Aussie actor was spotted in a Sydney café by an excited fan who witnessed the actor enjoying a spot of lunch. 

The Greatest Showman star stopped into the very trendy Speedos Café in the hip seaside suburb of North Bondi on Sunday. 

The 56-year-old mingled with a male friend and may have been in the company of his children, Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19.

Hugh looked relaxed and animated throughout the catch up and appeared to know the waitresses who work at the eatery. 

The superstar dressed comfortably for the outing in fitted black shirt and a pair of shorts. 

The sighting comes after reports that Jackman's ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness is said to have been 'seething with rage' over the Hollywood star's rumoured new romance with Sutton Foster.

Hugh and Deb, 69, confirmed their separation after almost three decades together in September 2023, and he is now said to be dating Broadway star Sutton, 49.

It has been claimed that Deb was enraged at being 'the last to know' about the relationship.

According to Radaronline, Deb is angry in particular at Hugh's close friend Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively, who both allegedly 'kept quiet' about the rumoured romance.

'They kept their lips sealed out of loyalty to Hugh,' a source told the publication.

'Now she is seething with rage over being the last to know, Deb feels blindsided. She has a memory like a steel trap and isn't afraid to use it!'

'Debs feels cheated by all three because someone could have told her what was happening and they all chose to keep their mouths shut,' they added.

Daily Mail Australia has contacted Deborra and Ryan's representatives for comment.

Australian actor Hugh was reportedly planning to introduce his new partner Sutton to his and Deb's children Oscar, 24, and Ava, 19, over the festive period.

However, Deb was allegedly 'not keen on the idea' with a source claiming that she does not want a 'blended' family Christmas.

'It's a delicate balancing act and he feels like if anyone is going to spend less time with the kids this year, it's him,' they added.

The insider said Hugh and  Sutton are determined to make their relationship work and are keeping things low-key at the moment.

Hugh and Sutton took on the roles of Harold Hill and Marian Paroo in The Music Man, which ran from February 2022 to January 2023 at the Winter Garden Theatre in Manhattan.

The pair have attended public events together, stepping out at the opening night of their show The Music Man on Broadway in February 2022.

In September 2023, Hugh shocked fans when he filed for divorce from Deb.

'We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,' the couple said in a joint statement. 

'Our journey now is shifting, and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.'
