LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Deborra-Lee Furness is reportedly preparing to release a revenge tell-all after her split from longtime husband Hugh Jackman, revealing what insiders call years of "betrayal" and personal secrets that shaped their 27-year marriage.

Sources say Furness, 69, is no longer holding back after finalizing a divorce settlement with the 'Wolverine' actor, 56, and may now reveal everything about his true character and their life behind closed doors.

“She's filed for divorce in New York with no contest from Hugh, and there's nothing stopping her from unloading her arsenal on him and making a bundle in the process,” an insider told RadarOnline.

They added, “Deb has kept completely quiet and very discreet, but a settlement has been mutually agreed upon and it's over. She has no further incentive to play nice.”

The former couple, who married in 1996, adopted son Oscar in 2000 and daughter Ava in 2005.

They announced their separation in September 2023, amid widespread speculation about Jackman’s rumored affair with Sutton Foster.

Sutton Foster, 50, sparked rumors after her onstage chemistry with Hugh Jackman spilled into offstage headlines.

She filed for divorce from her husband, Ted Griffin, in October 2024, just a month after Jackman and Furness confirmed their split.

“After months of ‘sneaking around,’ Jackman and Foster went public with their romance in January,” the insider said.

They claimed Furness is hurt and determined to speak out. “Deb's clearly feeling he stabbed her in the back, and she means to make him pay dearly.”

The source also shared what Furness might expose: “She knows everything about Hugh, including his early career struggles, his crippling insecurities and shameless ambitions, and how he feels about the rumors of his sexuality that dog him to this day. He was her everything – and now he's the louse who broke her heart.”

"This belief has helped me navigate the breakdown of an almost three-decade marriage," she added.

The publication, meanwhile, claimed that sources close to Jackman believe he’s deeply worried about what might be next.

“Hugh has feared she could one day embarrass the hell out of him and ruin his reputation – and Deb seems well on her way,” the insider added.
