Elizabeth Hurley & Billy Ray Cyrus: Inside Their Joyful New Romance
You probably pride yourself on keeping up with every Hollywood pairing, but indulge me anyway—I’m about to walk you through Elizabeth Hurley’s blossoming romance with Billy Ray Cyrus. In case you missed the headlines, the 58-year-old actress and the 62-year-old country icon quietly confirmed their relationship this spring, describing it as “very happy” in an exclusive chat with People Magazine on May 9, 2024. Yes, you read that right: Hurley and Cyrus are an item, and they’re not shy about sharing a few tender details.
The two first raised eyebrows at a London charity gala in January, where Hurley dazzled in a classic black gown and Cyrus offered his signature warm grin—immediately sparking dating rumors (source: People Magazine). Just weeks later, paparazzi snapped them enjoying a casual brunch in Notting Hill, exchanging laughs and affectionate glances as if the world belonged to them alone (source: Dotdash Meredith).
By April, the duo made their red-carpet debut at the GQ Heroes Awards in Los Angeles, turning heads when Hurley leaned into Cyrus for photos. The pair didn’t just pose; they practically radiated chemistry. Hurley gushed to our friends at People Magazine, “We’re very happy. He makes me feel great.” Cyrus echoed that sentiment offstage, praising Hurley’s wit and warmth in a quick backstage interview with ET Canada. I’ll spell it out: this isn’t a fleeting fling—it’s a full-blown romance flourishing under the media’s flashbulbs.
You’ll want to know how these two lovebirds actually met. According to an insider familiar with both camps, mutual friends at a springtime fundraiser in Malibu orchestrated a casual introduction over cocktails. Hurley’s retort? “He’s so down-to-earth—and yes, that accent helps.” Cyrus, for his part, was smitten by Hurley’s effortless glamour and sharp humor, telling Rolling Stone UK, “She lights up a room.”
Despite their busy schedules—Hurley jetting between London and her Cotswolds estate, Cyrus touring his Nashville ranch—they’ve carved out time for weekend getaways and cozy Netflix nights. Naturally, they’ve kept the kids in the loop: Hurley’s 22-year-old son Damian and Cyrus’s four talented offspring have reportedly given their full blessing (source: People Magazine).
So, let me recap: they met through friends, sparked headlines in January, cemented rumors over brunch, glowed on the GQ red carpet, and shared exclusive quotes with A-list outlets. Any questions? Probably not, because I’ve already covered it all. Earlier, you might’ve missed the finer points—but now you’re up to speed.
