The reported new couple, Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus surprised their followers with a joint Instagram post on Easter Sunday, which showed Billy kissing Elizabeth on the cheek.
The 59-year-old actress and the 63-year-old singer posted a photo with the caption “Happy Easter ♥️” and ‘Little House on the Prairie’ star Melissa Gilbert shared her shock in the comments. She wrote: “Wait….what?”
However, Elizabeth’s 23-year-old model son, Damian Hurley, gave the pair his seal of approval, posting a red heart emoji and a party face. And Elizabeth’s pal, TV star Trinny Woodhall, wrote: “Happy Easter, my darling. I hope you’re having the best time.”
Elizabeth and Billy Ray have not shared any other information about their reported relationship. However, Elizabeth did hint at the romance earlier this month.
During a recent holiday to the Maldives, she posted a picture of herself in a bikini and tagged Billy Ray’s account. She also used his song ; She’s Not Cryin’ Anymore’ to accompany the singer and he liked the post.
The pair have worked together in the past, having starred in the 2022 film ‘Christmas in Paradise’.
Meanwhile, Elizabeth, who had Damian with the late businessman Steve Bing, and was previously married to Arun Nayar from 2008 to 2010, revealed in 2020 that she was looking for “companionship” and “fun”.
She explained to Tatler: “I’d definitely be open to the idea of being loved, loving someone, having someone fantastic in my life and sharing it,” Hurley told Tatler in February 2020. “I don’t know if marriage comes into that, to be honest, because I’m not going to have more children, and I don’t need anyone to pay my bills or give me a roof over my head. But I would like someone for companionship and fun.”
Billy Ray’s first wife was Cindy Smith, whom he married from 1986 until their divorce in 1991. The country star and his second ex-wife, Tish Cyrus, 57, are parents to Miley Cyrus, 32, Noah Cyrus, 25, and Braison Cyrus, 33.
Billy Ray adopted Brandi Cyrus, 37, and Trace Cyrus, 36, from Tish’s past relationship. Billy Ray also has a 33-year-old son, Christopher Cody, whose mother is waitress Kristin Luckey. He also started a relationship with singer Firerose, 36, in 2022, they tied the knot in October 2023 but divorced less than a year later.
Now, the singer appears to be in a new and happy relationship with the British actress.
