Celebrities Liz Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus reportedly elated in heavenly bliss.
The Unexpected Romance: Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus' Journey
In an Instagram snapshot posted recently, two lovebirds - both dressed casually in denim - are seen leaning against a tree, radiating affection. Elizabeth Hurley, wearing a lacy blouse, beams joyfully into the camera as Billy Ray Cyrus tenderly embraces her.
Thisimagespeaks volumes: the 58-year-old actress has headed to Tennessee to spend time with the country music star on his picturesque estate in the US.olutely clear: Cyrus has captured Hurley's heart.
Before this romantic rendezvous, Hurley had dropped a hint on Easter with a heartfelt post that left many surprised. The British model, who had been single for twelve years after breaking up with Australian cricket star Shane Warne in 2011, had found new happiness with the father of pop star Miley Cyrus.
Her ex-partners haven’t had the smoothest rides either. Cyrus' divorce from singer Firerose was only finalized in August 2024, the process marked by acrimonious accusations of "emotional abuse" from both sides[1]. Amidst this turmoil, Hurley proved to be a source of comfort[2].
The pair's meeting wasn't part of a fairy tale script. They crossed paths on the set of the 2022 romantic comedy movie "Christmas in Paradise", filmed on Nevis Island. At the time, Cyrus was in the midst of a marital separation from Tish Cyrus[3].
Despite shooting the movie and keeping in touch for two years, it wasn’t until 2024 that they reconnected[4]. The romantic aspect of their relationship took root a few weeks before they went public with it on Instagram[3]. Their affectionate Easter reveal post generated support from Hurley's son, Damian, and left some friends, such as Elton John, a bit puzzled[4].
Refreshingly, the couple seems content with their relationship and doesn't appear to be heading towards a serious commitment[4]. For now, it's all about enjoying each other's company.
