Online court records from New York’s Suffolk County Supreme Court show a judgment of divorce was filed on June 12 and later uploaded to the website, according to People magazine.
When Furness filed for divorce from the 56-year-old Australian actor, she indicated the terms were uncontested and would only need a sign-off from a judge.
Days after the filing it was revealed the pair had begun to separate their shared assets.
According to property records reviewed by People, a limited liability company (LLC) tied to Furness paid $US11.7 million to the LLC the couple had used when they acquired a Manhattan penthouse in New York in 2022 for a reported $US21 million.
The home is now valued about $US23 million, with the Real Deal first to report the sale.
Jackman and Furness’ former luxury apartment, located in a landmark building in Chelsea, spans nearly 464sqm across two floors, with an additional 343sqm of outdoor space.
Situated near the Hudson River, the area is known for its distinctive architecture and celebrity residents.


The property is one of several high-value homes acquired by the pair during their nearly three-decade-long relationship.
Jackman and Furness reportedly still own residences in New York’s West Village, the Hamptons, a waterfront apartment overlooking Bondi Beach, Sydney, as well as other properties in the US, UK and Australia.
They met on the set of the Australian TV series Correlli in 1995 and married on April 11, 1996.
The pair adopted their son, Oscar, now 24, in 2000, and their daughter, Ava, 19, in 2005.
Last month Furness issued a separate statement discussing the emotional impact of the split.
“My heart and compassion goes out to everyone who has traversed the traumatic journey of betrayal. It’s a profound wound that cuts deep,” she said.
Jackman is now in a relationship with his former Broadway co-star Sutton Foster.
