As Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness begin their divorce proceedings after almost two years of separation, many have been left wondering what will happen to their incredible property portfolio, which includes a lavish New York penthouse, a Bondi Beach escape and a Hamptons hideaway.
The former couple, who were married for 27 years before announcing their split in 2023, have amassed a fortune of $387 million and will begin the lengthy process of divvying it up now that Deborra-Lee has officially filed for divorce.
City living
One of their most enviable properties is their New York City home, an almost 5,000-square-foot penthouse apartment spread over two floors and designed by French architect Jean Nouvel. It also comes with 3,700 square feet of outdoor space.
The abode serves as a home base for Hugh throughout the year, and particularly when he is starring in Broadway productions like The Music Man in 2022, where he met his current girlfriend, Sutton Foster. At present, he is starring in the Off-Broadway play Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes.

They bought the property in August 2022 for just over $21 million, adding to their already impressive property portfolio.

The 69-year-old called it her “dream home” in an interview with Architectural Digest, adding, “It’s like bucket list, tick it off. I’ve done it, and I loved it.”
Hugh’s heartbreak

“We have been blessed to share almost three decades together as husband and wife in a wonderful, loving marriage,” they added. “Our journey now is shifting and we have decided to separate to pursue our individual growth.”
Deborra-Lee shocked fans with a personal statement to the Daily Mail following the divorce filing in May, detailing the “betrayal” she felt in their marriage. “My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal,” she said. “It’s a profound wound that cuts deep, however, I believe in a higher power and that God/the universe, whatever you relate to as your guidance, is always working FOR us.”

“Even when we are presented with apparent adversity, it is leading us to our greatest good, our true purpose. It can hurt, but in the long run, returning to yourself and living within your own integrity, values and boundaries is liberation and freedom.”
Deborra-Lee shared that the “one thing” she has learned from her divorce journey is “that none of this is personal,” adding that some people serve as guides “in order to learn our lessons and to recognize and heal the broken parts of ourselves.”
