Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus unexpectedly became one of the biggest couples of the year. Over Easter, the couple broke the news of their relationship, surprising the world with the seemingly random pairing. Still, the couple remains together, attending events and making cross-Atlantic trips to spend time in each other's homes.
In a recent interview, Hurley shared some details on her relationship with Cyrus, confirming that they're happy and still together. "Billy Ray. Yes, Billy Ray is fabulous. We’re very happy, very happy,” she said in an interview with The Times of London.
Hurley opened up about their traveling and how much they both enjoy each other's countries and cities. “He loves it. Obviously, he loves England,” she said.
“The weather is nicer here in the summer than it is in Tennessee. He lives 40 minutes outside of Nashville. It’s so beautiful. Funnily enough, it actually looks a lot like England. Probably the equivalent of Surrey.”
She revealed that the pair are often left alone in Nashville, with people not approaching them, and that she prefers to do the groceries herself while Cyrus waits in the car since "he would be annoying."
“I cut his hair the other day,” she said. “We do have a lot of hair between us. We’re in constant danger of choking on hairballs. He has got very fuzzy hair. Before this is done it’s out here. So we’ve actually got contrast hair, which we aim to make look the same in the end.”
More details about Hurley and Cyrus' relationship
Hurley and Cyrus have known each other for years, having worked on a Netflix movie together that came out in 2022. Still, it wasn't until late 2024 that their relationship took a turn for the romantic. Hurley sent him a text as he was going through a difficult time, prompting them to reevaluate their relationship and their priorities.
“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,’” said Cyrus on Bentli’s Apple Music show earlier this year. He continued to praise Hurley, calling her a “great human being” and “impressively brilliant.”
Earlier this year, Hurley also addressed their romance and the fact that many people found it surprising. "It’s not surprising to me because we’re actually quite similar and get on extremely well,” she said at the Breast Cancer Research Foundation’s Hot Pink Party in New York.
