**World’s Greatest Showman Hugh Jackman Struggles to Sell Tickets, Much to Ex-Wife Deborra-Lee Furness’s Satisfaction**
Hugh Jackman, famously known as the world’s greatest showman, is reportedly having trouble selling tickets to his one-man show in New York. This news comes as music to the ears of his gleeful ex-wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, who, according to RadarOnline.com sources, believes he deserves nothing but bad luck following revelations of his cheating ways.
“Deb has moved on, but she’s getting a fiendish delight hearing he can’t fill seats at his one-man show” at Radio City Music Hall, a source revealed.
Another insider added, “It seems Hugh’s not as invincible as he thought he was. People have told her he’s struggling and down in the dumps over the lack of ticket sales.”
**Deborra-Lee Furness’s Reaction**
The same insider further commented, “Deb clearly feels he stabbed her in the back, and she means to make him pay dearly. She loved him, and he was her everything, and now he’s a louse who broke her heart and betrayed her.”
**Why Are Ticket Sales Suffering?**
As RadarOnline.com readers are aware, Jackman, 57, and his fellow Australian Furness, 69, who married in 1996 when she was a big star Down Under and he was relatively unknown, announced their separation in September 2023. Their split came amid rumors of Jackman’s clandestine affair with Sutton Foster, 50, his married leading lady in the Broadway revival of *The Music Man*.
In his new show, titled *Hugh Jackman Live: From New York, With Love*, the X-Men alum performs songs from some of his biggest screen and stage hits, including *The Greatest Showman*, *Les Misérables*, *The Boy From Oz*, and *The Music Man*.
Broadway insiders, however, suggest that neither Jackman nor the show itself is entirely to blame for the lagging ticket sales. They attribute part of the struggle to a drop in international tourism to New York City.
“Others say audiences are avoiding Hugh because he’s a love rat – he’s become a turnoff to a lot of people who used to love him for his family values and his devotion to his former wife,” a source explained.
“Either way, the show could be in real crisis if this continues, and Hugh’s darling Sutton won’t be able to pull him out of this slump,” the insider claimed. “And Deb is feeling no sympathy for him.”
