Elizabeth Hurley ready to introduce Billy Ray Cyrus to family
Elizabeth Hurley plans to introduce Billy Ray Cyrus to her family on her birthday.
The 'Bedazzled' star - who has 23-year-old son Damian from a previous relationship - shocked fans last month when she announced she was dating the 'Achy Breaky Heart' hitmaker and she's now revealed he will be flying over to the UK in June to be part of her 60th birthday celebrations.
She told Britain's HELLO! magazine: "I am looking forward to celebrating with Billy Ray.
"He should be in England for my birthday. He'll be meeting my family – and my dogs – and hopefully, it'll be lovely."
Elizabeth isn't too worried about hitting 60 because she always enjoys her birthdays, but even more so when she reaches a milestone age.
She said: "I love every birthday. I always get overexcited if it's a big birthday – I think people are even nicer to you, maybe give you more presents, more flowers, and generally spoil you more. I welcome it."
The 'Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery' star's comments come after 63-year-old musician Billy praised Elizabeth as a "great human being".
He recently told their romance has evolved, recalling how they met while filming 2022's 'Christmas in Paradise' movie.
In a clip from 'The Ty Bentli Show', Billy Ray said: "We did very few scenes together but the couple times we were in the same scene there was a chemistry there. We just laughed, and it was at a time I wasn't laughing a lot.
"The oddest part was first, how much we laughed. Second, I figured we were so different but in some very strange way we had way more in common than we had different.
"If all we ever were [is] the friends that we are, I would take that. She's so impressively brilliant. She reminds me a lot of Dolly Parton. She's a very smart businesswoman.
"If you can laugh together, you can make it through everything."
While the pair met on the movie set, they didn't speak to each other for two years after shooting the film.
But Elizabeth re-entered Billy Ray's life when he needed a friend, following his split from wife Firerose.
He shared: "I felt like, 'Wow, can life get any harder? Can it get any tougher?' For me, at a certain point it was like, you can't get knocked down any flatter than laying on your back when life is kicking you. And in this moment ... a friend reached out."
Billy didn't recognise the number at first, so he text Elizabeth back.
He recalled: "I text back, I go, 'Who is this?' And it's like, 'Elizabeth Hurley.' Of all the people to reach out to me in that second that maybe I needed most ... this friend who made me laugh."

Tom Daley reveals whether he and husband Dustin Lance Black are planning to expand their family
Tom Daley doesn't want any more children. The 31-year-old former Olympic diver and his husband Dustin Lance Black, 50, are parents to sons Robbie, seven, and two-year-old Phoenix and are very content with family life the way it is. Asked if he wants to have more children, Tom told Britain's HELLO! magazine: 'Family of four is good.' Tom's boys make regular appearances on his social media channels, and while Robbie in particular seems to enjoy being in the spotlight, the former Team GB athlete is keen to 'protect' him from the downsides of game, such as bullying. He said: 'Robbie's got a lot of personality, but there's also a part of me, with everything I went through as a kid, that wants to protect him as much as possible.' Tom – who retired after the Paris Olympics in August 2024 with a total haul of five Olympic medals, including one gold - began diving when he was just seven years old and he is keen for his children to find their own passions in life, which he pledged that he and Lance will support however they can. He said: 'I want to be led by what they want to do. 'The way you can be your happiest is finding something you're passionate about, that you love to do, and then making it something you do every day. 'That's my hope for them.' Tom has opened up about battling an eating disorder in his new documentary 'Tom Daley: 1.6 Seconds', and though he is 'fine' these days, he will always have a 'very different' relationship with food and is paying particular attention to managing his 'expectations' now he is no longer expected to be in peak fitness. He said: 'Once you've had an eating disorder, you always have a very different relationship with food; you question everything you eat, the amount of exercise you're doing, the calories you're burning… 'Rationally, when I look at myself, I know I'm fine, but that's not what the eating disorder sees. 'The irrational part of your brain makes you question everything you do, making yourself not eat and then binge-eating. 'Now that I'm retired, I have to get used to the fact that I'm not able to train six hours a day, six days a week, and alter my expectations of what I do to stay happy and healthy.'

Miley Cyrus' parents thought she'd end up at Hooters
Miley Cyrus' parents thought she would end up working at Hooters. The 32-year-old pop megastar - who is the daughter of Achy Breaky Heart singer Billy Ray Cyrus and his ex-wife Tish Cyrus - recalled having such a "sexual instinct" in her youth that her mother and father always assumed that she would become a waitress at the restaurant chain famed for dressing its workforce in provocative outfits. Speaking on the Every Single Album podcast, she said: "My mum ... wasn't like 'Get out there...', she was like 'This is what she wants to do, this is a lot better than what a lot of teenager want to be...' "I think my parents always thought I was going to work at Hooters. I actually know for a fact they thought I was going to work at Hooters because of the way I acted as a child. "I can say this, but I always had a very sexual instinct, even as a kid. I was always just trying to get naked in Cracker Barrel." The Easy Lover hitmaker shot to fame in her early teens when she took on the title role of the Disney Channel sitcom Hannah Montana, and explained that being a celebrity has given her more "boundaries" to consider because she is constantly being watched by the rest of the world. She added: "That's when Mum stopped making me go to church, she was like 'We're not going to church anymore because we always follow church with Cracker Barrel and something in the sermon sets you off!' "This is not me deflecting or anything, this is me being dead-ass serious, I think my mum was like 'I have two options and neither of them are very good, but one of them, she'll make a lot more money. "I actually have a lot more boundaries by being famous because everything that you do is speculated on, so there is structure there." Miley Cyrus' parents thought she would end up working at Hooters.
