Elizabeth Hurley & Billy Ray Cyrus' Relationship Wasn't Surprising to Friends — Report
Cyrus and Hurley went public with their relationship on the occasion of Easter on April 20. They shared a joint Instagram post to commemorate the festivities as well as their romance. Fans shared their shocked reactions in the post, with the actor's son, Damian Hurley, also showing support for the couple.
Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus' romance wasn't surprising to her friends, who had reportedly known about them dating for quite some time. 'Her friends have known about it for a while as it's not a new thing,' the source confirmed to US Weekly before mentioning that she 'had sworn them all to secrecy.' Moreover, the actor's friends ensured nobody outside their immediate 'tight circle of mostly gay men' found out about it.
Rumors of the duo dating surfaced earlier this month after Hurley shared a bikini video on her Instagram with Cyrus' 'She's Not Cryin' Anymore.' However, they only settled rumors with their PDA-packed Easter photo, and nothing could've prepared fans for it. While the news came as a shock to many, it wasn't exactly a surprise to the actor's friends. The insider also addressed discussions surrounding their relationship, especially after they went public. 'Now that she's announced it, everyone is chattering about it,' the person noted.
In addition, the source disclosed that Elizabeth Hurley 'has a history of dating eccentric guys,' which explained her falling for Billy Ray Cyrus. As for her friends, they were 'just happy that [her son] Damian loves him,' said the source. On Tuesday, a source also informed the publication about Damian's take on her new dating life. The insider claimed the 23-year-old was 'really happy seeing his mom happy.'
Other insiders have previously confirmed that the couple's bond had been platonic all these years and only 'turned romantic recently.'

Sharing her thoughts on 9 August on Instagram, the singer, who posted a photo of her and Muar MP Syed Saddiq following their Hottest Couple Goal win at the Anugerah Melodi Terhangat, said that she is thankful to the organiser for the recognition and will think of it as an extraordinary experience. "After a week of reflection and listening to all sides, I choose to focus on the good things that came from that night and to continue moving forward. Anyway, it was your love and support that I consider the biggest gift of all," she added.

Rapper Maluma stops concert to scold mom for ‘irresponsible' act with her baby
Rapper Maluma abruptly stopped his Mexico City concert over the weekend to call out a mother who had brought her baby without any ear protection into the 26,000-strong crowd. The Colombian musician, 31, was in the middle of a song when he noticed the tot in the audience — prompting him to scold the child's mother over the 'irresponsible' act. In a now-viral video of the moment, the 'Farandulera' singer asked for the baby's age before putting the mom on the spot. Advertisement 4 Rapper Maluma abruptly stopped his Mexico City concert over the weekend to call out a mother who had brought her baby without any ear protection into the 26,000-strong crowd. TikTok/@estilodf 'Do you think it's a good idea to bring a one-year-old baby to a concert where the decibels are this f–king high?' he asked. 'That baby doesn't even know what it's doing here.' 'Next time, protect their ears or something,' he continued. 'For real. It's heavy. It's your responsibility.' Advertisement Maluma, who has a 1-year-old daughter, Paris, doubled down by saying he would never do that as a father. 'You're waving them around like they're a toy,' he continued. 'That baby doesn't want to be there, for real. I'm telling you with all love and respect, now that I'm a father… would never bring them to a concert. For the next time, be a bit more aware.' While the crowd cheered in support of Maluma's remarks, some critics rushed to social media to slam the singer for making the ordeal a public spectacle. Advertisement 'Every mother knows what she has to do with her child. If not, they should limit the capacity to a certain age. What's the point in putting her through that in front of so many people?' one person wrote on TikTok. Another added, 'Was it necessary to embarrass her while he was receiving applause?' 4 The Colombian musician, 31, was in the middle of a song when he noticed the tot in the audience. TikTok/@estilodf 'Even if you're right about what you're saying, I don't think it's right to shame a parent in front of thousands of people,' a third wrote.

If you have a baby and no one to leave it with, then you don't go. I totally agree with him,' one fan wrote. 4 The rapper became a dad in March 2024 after the birth of his daughter, Paris. @maluma/Instagram Another added, 'Maluma is right, it's not a place for a baby.

John Leguizamo slams Dean Cain for joining ICE: ‘Your pronouns are has/been'
John Leguizamo had some choice words for Dean Cain after the actor revealed he joined US Immigration and Customs Enforcement to 'help save America.' On Tuesday, Cain — who played Clark Kent on ABC's 'Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman' alongside Teri Hatcher's Lois Lane from 1993 to 1997 — revealed that he's rolling up his sleeves to support President Trump's mass deportation efforts. The announcement was soon met with a fierce response from the 'Ice Age' star, who hit out at the actor in a social media post Friday. Advertisement 5 John Leguizamo had some choice words for Dean Cain after the actor revealed he joined US Immigration and Customs Enforcement to 'help save America.' @johnleguizamo / Instagram 'What kind of loser volunteers to be an ICE officer?' Leguizamo, an ardent Trump critic, said in an Instagram video. 'What a moron. Dean Cain, your pronouns are has/been.' On Sunday, the Emmy and Tony winner further doubled down on his stance by posting a fake DVD case with Cain's photo on it with the title, 'AGED ICE.' Advertisement 'More like 'Dean needs a cane' amiright?' he captioned his Instagram Story. Cain, 59, last week shared the news in a recruitment-style video on social media while urging others to join him in booting illegal migrants from the country. 'For those who don't know, I am a sworn law enforcement officer, as well as being a filmmaker, and I felt it was important to join with our first responders to help secure the safety of all Americans, not just talk about it, so I joined up,' Cain said in a nearly two-minute video on X. Advertisement 'Since President Trump took office, ICE has arrested hundreds of thousands of criminals, including terrorists, rapists, murderers, pedophiles, MS-13 gang members, drug traffickers, you name it — very dangerous people are who are no longer on the streets.' 5 Cain last week revealed that he is joining ICE to 'help save America.' X/@RealDeanCain 5 The actor said he's supporting President Trump's mass deportation efforts. Michael Brochstein/Zuma / The actor raved about the agency's 'great benefits and pay' — and touted the $50,000 signing bonus announced last week by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Advertisement 'So if you want to help save America, ICE is arresting the worst of the worst and removing them from American's streets,' he said, adding that no college degree is required, meaning 'you can get to work right away.' 'I like that. I voted for that. They need your help, we need your help, to protect our homeland and our families. So check into it and join today if it's something that tickles your fancy because we can use you.' Cain's video was met with resistance almost immediately, with some commenters noting that the actor is 22 years over the federal agency's maximum recruitment age of 37, casting doubt on the legitimacy of his latest public reveal. 'Perhaps we'll get that changed…' Cain said in response, shortly before Assistant DHS Secretary Tricia McLaughlin revealed that the agency has waived the age limit to allow for new applicants. 5 Cain played Clark Kent on ABC's 'Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman' alongside Teri Hatcher's Lois Lane from 1993 to 1997.

AFP via Getty Images Advertisement McLaughlin told The Post that Cain is expected to be sworn in as an honorary ICE Officer in the coming month. The actor's endorsement comes a week after DHS launched 'Defend the Homeland,' a nationwide recruitment campaign aiming to hire 10,000 new agents following the passage of Trump's massive funding bill.
