Elizabeth Hurley 'likes the whole cowboy thing' about Billy Ray Cyrus
The 59-year-old actress and the 63-year-old singer surprised their followers with a joint Instagram post on Easter Sunday, which showed Billy giving Elizabeth a kiss on the cheek but friends say Elizabeth finds Billy Ray's country roots attractive.
A friend told the New York Post's Page Six: 'She's been waiting a long time for romance. I think she likes the whole cowboy thing.'
The pal added that Elizabeth spent Easter with country singer Billy Ray at his Nashville ranch.
And, while some celebrities and fans have reacted with shock to the new romance, insiders insist Elizabeth and Billy Ray are serious about each other.
One pal said: 'This is not a hoax. Liz is not a hoaxy person; she's very sincere, very bright and I think she likes him. Just look at the photo of them together — she looks happy! People are so quick to be mean.'
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 picture 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 son Damian Hurley 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, fun.'
Billy Ray's first wife was Cindy Smith, whom he was married to 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 started a relationship with singer Firerose, 36, in 2022, they tied the knot in October 2023 but divorced less than a year later.

Sophie Turner hits back at Instagram critic
Sophie Turner has hit back after she was criticised for going out with her friends. The Game of Thrones actress - who has Willa, four, and Delphine, two, with ex-husband Joe Jonas - shared some photos and videos of herself and her friends watching Oasis at London's Wembley Stadium last week, prompting an allegation she had "forgotten" about her daughters, much to her annoyance. A comment on her Instagram post read: 'lmfao i think she has forgotten that she has two kids." Sophie hit back: 'ah I'm so sorry sometimes I forget some people can't think for themselves. 'So…. Get this….There's this crazy thing called shared custody. Maybe, just maybe, they were with their dad that day.' Joe previously praised 29-year-old Sophie - who he split from in 2023 after four years of marriage - as a great role model for their daughters. He said: "Having an incredible mum, Sophie, for those girls is like a dream come true. 'As young girls, looking up to great women is what I want for them. I think what values I want for them are to be open-minded and have a big heart.' Joe added he hopes Willa and Delphine will 'be able to walk into any room and feel confidence and know that they can do literally anything they want.' And the Sucker singer is happy with the co-parenting relationship he and the 29-year-old actress have established. He told the School of Greatness podcast: "I have a great co-parenting relationship, which is really important to me." He described being a father to his "beautiful" children as "the greatest joy and journey", while praising the influence Sophie has on their kids. He added: "My little ones have some incredible women to look up to, including their mom." When Joe initially filed for divorce two years ago, he requested "shared parental responsibility" and a "parenting plan". However, just two weeks after the documents were filed, Sophie sued the Jonas Brothers singer over the alleged "wrongful retention" of their children in New York City, away "from their habitual residence of England". The following month, the confirmed they had reached a custody agreement. In a joint statement, they said at the time: "After a productive and successful mediation, we have agreed that the children will spend time equally in loving homes in both the US and the UK. "We look forward to being great co-parents."
