A body language expert has claimed that the romance between Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster is not real and that the pair lack “passion”.

The Hollywood heavyweights recently sparked romance speculation after previously starring together in Broadway's The Music Man.

Although the 56-year-old has described Sutton, 49, as a “dream,” according to Gesture analyst Judi James, the talented duo appear to be nothing more than colleagues.

While speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, Judi revealed there was “no sign of repressed passion” between them.

She admitted that Sutton – who recently filed for divorce and reportedly spent “all of her free time” with Hugh – had appeared to avoid close contact with the “Greatest Showman” star in the past.

A body language expert has admitted that the romance between Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster (to be seen in 2022) is not real as the two lack passion

Although they demonstrated their musical talents on stage together from 2022 to 2023, the long-time friends have now become the focus of romance rumors.

Snaps of them walking the red carpet together have resurfaced as fans question whether the A-listers' love will last.

The body language expert seemingly put an end to the rumors when she revealed what her frequent looks really mean.

She told DailyMail.com: “In terms of relationship signals, the body language here seems non-committal.”

“There are some exaggerated rituals that suggest a desire to create some kind of announcement to suggest or present them as an authentic couple, but there are no subtle signs of commitment that signal that it is more than just a working relationship. “

Judi claimed that the couple were putting on a show for the cameras as she merely branded them as “co-stars”.

The expert also noted that there did not appear to be any sexual tension between the alleged couple.

“The smile appears when the cameras start snapping.” Despite the cuteness, the touching rituals seem formal. In this clip, there are signs of shyness that could indicate a relationship, but no sexual touching or staring.

“Hugh seems intent on suggesting some closeness, but the body language isn't well synchronized here.” He tries to grab her hand and she moves away. “Their eyes meet at a glance, but there are no signs of suppressed passion,” Judi added.

Although they look “happy” together, Judi noted that this could be a sign of friendship and nothing more.

She told DailyMail.com: “They look happy together and there seems to be an attempt here to define them as a couple. “Judging by their body language, they could just be co-stars putting a movie together.”

Hugh is now rumored to be dating his Broadway co-star as both are divorcing their respective partners and are “in love” with each other.

Sources told Page Six that the Hollywood stars are reportedly keeping their relationship secret as rumors continue to swirl.

“They spend all their free time together,” an insider claimed. “They’re a normal couple, they’re just private.”

Rumors of a love affair come just days after the brunette beauty filed for divorce from her husband, Ocean's Eleven screenwriter Ted Griffin, after ten years of marriage.
