Elizabeth, who first visited Billy Ray's estate in Nashville during Easter celebrations, quietly soft-launched their romance through social media posts filled with PDA moments like country walks and off-road rides, without fully spilling the beans. While Hurley's son has now publicly shown support, Cyrus's daughter Miley recently also opened up about her bond with him amid reports of their feud. She had cut ties with him back in 2023 after his divorce from her mother, Tish. Miley now wishes happiness for both, saying in a recent interview, 'At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.''

According to reports, Elizabeth had first reached out to Billy Ray via text when he was going through his messy divorce from Firerose, his third wife. They started chatting more often and came close. Now, Billy Ray is hoping this new chapter will also help him fix things with his kids. His split from Miley's mom, Tish, back in 2022 after nearly 30 years of marriage had caused serious tensions in the family. However, recently, a source who spoke to the Daily Mail revealed, 'Billy Ray met Elizabeth in 2022 on the set of their Christmas film, which they both starred in. Tish had her thoughts and suspicions at the time that he was cheating on her with Liz, but Billy Ray flat-out denied it.' The insider called their relationship, 'a slap in the face.'
Sources say Billy Ray is now trying to spend more time with his kids. He's even willing to apologise to Tish's current husband, actor Dominic Purcell, just for the sake of peace between the two families. Despite all the past drama, insiders say Billy Ray feels lucky to have found Elizabeth. In a recent interview with Apple Music Country's The Ty Bentli Show, the country singer opened up about meeting Hurley on the filming set and said, 'We did very few scenes together, but the couple times we were in the same scene there was a chemistry. We just laughed and it was at a time I wasn't laughing a lot, and I found it the oddest thing.'
