“[Furness] knew they would side with Hugh when they split, but what has disturbed Deb is the very real possibility that Ryan and Blake must have known about Sutton,” the source toldWoman’s Day.
Though Furness and Lively did not share a close bond, the former was reportedly left “fuming” when she was not told about thealleged affair.
“Truth be told, it was always difficult for Deb to bond with Blake because they’re so different, but she felt they got on just fine,” the insider continued.

“Watching this legal nightmare unfold around Blake’s latest film, and how Ryan and Hugh had to skip the Globes because of it, must feel just a bit karmic.”
In December 2024, Blake Livelyfiled a sexual harassment complaint against her It Ends With Us co-star and director, Justin Baldoni, whom she accused of creating a “hostile work environment” and treating her like an “object.”

According to the insider, Furness andJackman began to grow apart when their relationship became “rudimentary” during the pandemic.

Their romantic date took place after Jackman attended a performance of theTony Award-winning actress’ latest production, Once Upon A Mattress, at Los Angeles’ Ahmanson Theatre.
In a 2022 post about their rehearsals for the Music Man, Foster described dancing with Jackman as “a dream.”
Speaking withVogue the same year, the 49-year-old actress praised her co-star, referring to him as one of her “best friends.”
“He disarms everyone, and he doesn’t make anything about him. And he’s now become one of my best friends, which was a surprise because you usually go into these things thinking, ‘Well, I hope we get along.’ But we just spent Memorial Day with our families. It’s really fun to meet new friends after 40.”

This smells like one of the "we can bury anyone" PR firm hit pieces on Lively. The article is about how she and her husband "may have known" that Jackman cheated on his wife and for some reason focuses on Lively's failure to inform Furness, in spite of the "article" stating that they weren't close.

HONESTY If you search for tenderness It isn't hard to find You can have the love you need to live But if you look for truthfulness You might just as well be blind It always seems to be so hard to give Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you I can always find someone To say they sympathize If I wear my heart out on my sleeve But I don't want some pretty face To tell me pretty lies All I want is someone to believe Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you I can find a lover I can find a friend I can have security until the bitter end Anyone can comfort me With promises again I know, I know When I'm deep inside of me Don't be too concerned I won't ask for nothin' while I'm gone But when I want sincerity Tell me where else can I turn 'Cause you're the one I depend upon Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue Honesty is hardly ever heard
