It's interesting seeing Hugh's fans who for decades praised him for being a married wife guy and dad with an older wife rationalize his cheating on said wife.

Seems like Hugh is getting on the crazy train. She is tearing up, but who knows if she’s using him…or if she’s just the kind of gal who isn’t cut out for monogamy.


The rumors were always that Christian Borle cheated on her, so I'm not sure that's fair.


Gosh, I always thought that Borle was openly gay. Guess I was wrong.

I thought maybe Sutton has a type.

Of course take this with a huge grain of salt, but a celebrity gossip blind item indicates she was fine trading in her husband for a PR relationship that involves a massive bump in lifestyle. Not to mention being a celebrity power couple. She's at a tough age in the industry, makes sense to me.


This makes sense to me just because of all the years and years of rumors that he is closeted. I’m not buying them as a true “inseparable” couple. She gets a huge career bump and he gets a rebuttal to the rumors that there was a 25 year contract with his ex wife.

High and his first wife also met on set in 1995. He was 26 and she was 39. They got married the next year as she really wanted a family.

His own parents divorced when he was 8. His mother took his two sisters and moved to England. Without telling him. He came home from school one day and she and his sisters were gone. He said he spent years thinking she would come back before accepting she had abandoned him. Very traumatic for him. Hugh and his two brothers stayed with her father in Australia.

Yes, I mentioned this upthread. That’s soul-breaking for a child. I do think it had a lot to do with his marriage to an older woman. His ex-wife must be nearly 70 now, based on those ages.

+1. It won't last. If they marry, it will be her third marriage.

And interestingly enough, apparently he finally did some therapy around his mother’s abandonment in 2022. It may not be a coincidence that his marriage failed not long afterwards.

He also has a 19 year old. Maybe he was waiting until his kids were adults to file for divorce because he wanted them to grow up in a two parent household. That would make sense given his childhood.

He actually reconnected with his mother shortly after he had kids. He said becoming a father made him want to talk to her and understand her better. By 2011, he said they were in regular contact.

In 2022, he was filming the movie The Son. In it he plays a father who had abandoned his son and his son shows up at 17 wanting a relationship with this father. Hugh's character reconnects but refuses to acknowledge the pain or damage he caused by abandoning him and the son attempts suicide.

The film company offered therapy due to the themes in the movie and Hugh took advantage of it as the film resurfaced a lot of his own childhood trauma. He has said that he had thought he had dealt with it on his own and had never had therapy but the film hit too close to home for him and he was reexperiencing a lot of his childhood trauma. He said therapy was very helpful and really helped him work through his life.

All this context makes the affair even worse. He broke up Sutton's marriage and home; she has a 7 year-old daughter (via surrogate). You'd think he would tread more carefully when traumatizing an innocent child (yes- divorce is traumatic for kids, don't delude yourselves).
