Fans have slammed Hugh Jackman for passionately kissing his new girlfriend Sutton Foster in public after their secret relationship was exposed.
The Australian actor, 56, and Foster, 49, were seen locking lips while packing on the PDA outside the car at a San Fernando In-N-Out.
However, fans have called out the Wolverine star's bizarre and awkward lip lock in the carpark, with many offering their support to his ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness.
'Absolutely no reason to do this in public other than twist the knife for Deborra,' one person wrote.
'Get a room man! Have some respect for you ex wife,' another person commented.
'Very awkward. No chemistry,' a third said, while another wrote: 'It's awful for his ex wife to witness, I hope she finds happiness as well.'

'Oh Hugh. I honestly thought you were a nice guy. Flaunting this in public is crass,' one said.
Another commented: 'No matter how strong the attraction is between Jackman and Foster, their actions are selfish.'
'No respect for his ex wife, his children and her family. I hope it rebounds on him,' one person added.
Despite the backlash, some fans offered their support for the new couple.
'This is the first time I've seen Hugh look genuinely happy,' one person commented.
'I think Sutton Foster is adorable and super talented. I feel for the injured parties but I also like seeing people truly happy,' another said.
A third wrote: 'He looks absolutely smitten in these photos. It’s awful for his ex wife to witness, I hope she finds happiness as well.'
Hugh and Sutton - who have been swarmed by rumours of conducting an affair before exiting their marriages - took their PDA session outside of the car as they embraced and kissed after exiting the vehicle.

Jackman - who split from wife of 27 years Deborra-lee Furness in September 2023, embraced Foster as she stroked his face.
Their outing comes after the Logan star attended a performance of Foster's production of Once Upon A Mattress in Los Angeles over the weekend and the pair were seen holding hands on a date in Santa Monica.
Foster filed for an uncontested divorce from her husband Ted Griffin in October of last year.
She had been married to the 53-year-old Ocean's screenwriter for 10 years.
Foster and Jackman have been swarmed in recent months by rumours that an affair between the two scuttled their marriages.
Fans had remarked on how close they appeared to be in their off-stage interactions while they appeared together in The Music Man.
Furness seemed to lend credence to the rumours when she liked an Instagram post in October from a gossip blogger who claimed that her husband was 'running off with the mistress' and planning a 'soft launch' of their relationship, according to Us Weekly.
A source told DailyMail.com in October that Furness had her suspicions of an affair, but she was still 'blindsided when she found out about the affair.'

They described the romance as 'Broadway's worst-kept secret,' adding that 'Deborra-Lee was the last to know.'
According to a RadarOnline report, Furness was particularly upset over the behaviour of Jackman's close friend Ryan Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively because they allegedly 'kept quiet'.
'They kept their lips sealed out of loyalty to Hugh,' a source claimed to 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 contacted Furness and Reynolds' representatives at the time for comment.
Following Jackman and Furness' split, the former couple shared a statement addressing the breakup.
'We have been blessed to share almost 3 decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage. Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth,' they announced.
'Our family has been and always will be our highest priority,' they continued. 'We undertake this next chapter with gratitude, love, and kindness. We greatly appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy as our family navigates this transition in all of our lives.'
