Sutton Foster has taken a subtle swipe at her boyfriend Hugh Jackman's ex-wife Deborra-Lee Furness with a very telling fashion statement. On Monday evening, the 49-year-old Broadway veteran and the 56-year-old X-Men star were spotted holding hands while out on a dinner date in Santa Monica, California.

In the photos, Sutton went with an elegant look with a long double-breasted cashmere overcoat. It featured interesting details taken from military trench coats, including a storm flap over her left shoulder and epaulettes on her shoulders. The Music Man star wore a lovely dark green maxi dress underneath that flowed elegantly and reached down to her ankles.

Meanwhile, Hugh looked casual in a charcoal zip-up jacket that he wore over a slim grey sweater and a pair of chinos with dark sneakers. He also sported a dashing salt-and-pepper beard and wore his hair shaggier than usual. As Hugh and Sutton walked down the sidewalk, they had their hands locked tightly, and they turned periodically to gaze into each others eyes.
