Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus Cozy Up in New Pics

Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus are packing on the PDA after hard-launching their relationship.

In a photo shared via Instagram on Sunday, August 27, Cyrus, 63, and Hurley, 59, posed for the camera as he placed one arm around her chest and another by her midsection. In a separate pic, Hurley smiled at a dog while Cyrus appeared focused on the road while driving.

“Tennessee weekend ,” she captioned the post.

Cyrus and Hurley made headlines one week prior when they shared a photo of themselves cozying up while on a farm. Cyrus planted a kiss on Hurley’s cheek as she turned her head and smiled in the photo.

Elizabeth Hurley Previously Dropped a Clue About Billy Ray Cyrus Romance

“Happy Easter ,” the twosome captioned the Instagram upload earlier this month.

Hurley’s 23-year-old son, Damian, took to the comments section to weigh in on the post, dropping a party and heart emoji. (Cyrus’ rep had no comment. Us Weekly also reached out to Hurley’s team for comment at the time.)

Prior to their debut, Hurley dropped a clue of their romance. In an April 9 Instagram video, Hurley frolicked in the water at sunset as she blew a kiss at the camera. “The most glorious sunset in the glorious Maldives ,” she captioned the post — which was set to Cyrus’ song “She’s Not Cryin’ Anymore.”

While the pair recently hard launched their relationship, a source exclusively told Us that Hurley’s “friends have known about it for a while as it’s not a new thing.” The insider explained that the actress “had sworn them all to secrecy and they didn’t tell anyone outside of her tight circle of mostly gay men.”

Cyrus, for his part, broke his silence on their debut and shared that she reached out to him via text message. “I didn’t even know the number, and it’s like, ‘Hey, it looks like life might be a little bit tough and just wanted you to know I’m in your corner. You got a friend in your corner,’” Cyrus recalled on the Thursday, April 24, episode of Apple Music Country’s The Ty Bentli Show.

Inside Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley's 'Very Recent' Romance

Cyrus played coy when asked whether they were in an “actual relationship,” saying, “I would say it feels very … she’s a great human being. If all we ever were [are] the friends that we are [now], I would take that.”

Years before, Hurley and Cyrus shared the screen in 2022’s Christmas in Paradise. The film, which was a follow up to 2021’s Father Christmas Is Back, starred Hurley as Joanna Christmas and Cyrus as Jimmy Love.

“The opportunity to work with Billy Ray, whom I’ve long been a fan of — my son was the age where he used to watch Hannah Montana all the time, so of course, I used to watch it with him,” Hurley said in an interview with MovieWeb about her then-costar. “I knew Billy Ray really well from that, and of course, some of his music. That was a big plus.”

Hurley was previously linked to Hugh Grant from 1987 to 2000 and married to Indian businessman Arun Nayar from 2007 to 2010. She welcomed Damian in 2002 with businessman Steve Bing.

Cyrus, for his part, previously tied the knot with Cindy Smith in 1986, calling it quits in 1991. He moved on with Tish Cyrus in 1993. The exes share kids Brandi, 37, Trace, 36, Miley, 32, Braison, 30, and Noah, 25. (Billy Ray later adopted Tish’s kids from a past relationship, Brandi and Trace. He is also dad of son Christopher, 33, whom he shares with ex Kristin Luckey.)

Tish and Billy Ray split for good in 2022. He exchanged vows with Firerose the following year, but the pair divorced in 2024.
