The Achy Breaky Heart singer, 63 - who has previously been married three times - jumped to his main Instagram page on Tuesday to pen a sweet tribute to the British actress in celebration of her 60th birthday. Back in April, the two stars debuted their relationship as they cozied up together in a photo during Easter weekend. Cyrus uploaded a photo as Elizabeth sat on his lap for a cute snap as they both flashed cheerful smiles for the camera. The beauty donned a patterned top and a pair of denim jeans while a black cowgirl hat was placed on top of her flowy locks. Billy sported a brown shirt as well as shades and penned in the caption: 'Happy birthday to the love of my life ❤️.' Social media users jumped to the comment to offer mixed reactions to the singer's latest post. Hurley also shared her response to Billy's birthday wish with an assortment of red heart emojis. Her son Damian, 23, showed his support for their relationship by also a red heart emoji. Elizabeth shares the model with ex Steven Bing. One fan also typed out, 'How you two just started dating. love of your life what a joke,' and another wrote, 'you just met her,' with laughing face emojis. 'How many loves of your life have you had in the last 10 years??' an Instagram user shared, whole one added, 'Im happy for you bro but you have said that about all your past relationships.'

'Feeling very blessed and grateful for having the best friends & family in the world ♥️ pic taken this afternoon… in my birthday suit xxx.' Her son Damian shared an additional comment by writing, 'Hahahah I LOVE YOU happy birthday mama xxx.' Two months earlier, Billy and Elizabeth unveiled their romance as they cozied up together in a photo while celebrating the Easter holiday. Last month in May, the pair made their red carpet debut in Rome while attending the Orizzonti | Rosso Exhibition Opening Dinner together - with her son Damian also joining the couple. At the time, Billy opted for an all-black ensemble while Hurley turned heads wearing a hot pink gown that clung to her toned figure. The singer had uploaded snippets from their time at the event to his Instagram page and wrote in the caption, 'With my beautiful girlfriend in Rome ❤️.' Also in May, The Royals actress made an appearance at the Breast Cancer Research Foundation 2025 Hot Pink Party in New York City - and gave an update about their relationship during an exclusive interview with She gushed that she is 'very happy in my new relationship' and added, 'Billy's a lovely man and we make each other very happy.' Ahead of her birthday, a source told The Sun that Cyrus 'is besotted with Liz. 'He can't believe this chance he's been given and he's throwing everything at it, including this very expensive birthday trip to the Caribbean. He thinks she's the most beautiful woman in the world and feels incredibly lucky.' The insider added that Billy 'spoils her rotten with gifts but mostly they just enjoy hanging out, listening to records and making each other laugh.' Cyrus has also previously broken his silence on their relationship on Apple Music Country's The Ty Bentli Show in April. The pair's relationship began following his divorce from Firerose - and his third marriage. He had met Elizabeth on set of the 2022 movie Christmas In Paradise and as he was navigating through the split from Firerose, he received a message from Hurley. '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 then tried to recall the contents of the message and explained she had said, 'Hey, it looks like life might be a little bit tough and just wanted you to know I'm in your corner; you've got a friend in your corner.' When he first received the text, the performer revealed that at first he didn't know who the message was from. 'So, 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.' He later gushed that the actress is 'a great human being' and also '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.' The star also reflected on how he has also gotten close to his girlfriend's son Damian as well. 'It's great that God brought them into my life when he did. It's just a good thing. It's been a long time since I've been this happy.' Miley Cyrus also broke her silence on her father's new relationship while talking to New York Times' The Interview podcast late last month. 'As I've gotten older, I respect my parents as individuals instead of as parents because, you know, my mom really loved my dad for her whole life,' she stated. 'I took on some of my mom's hurt as my own, because it hurt her more than it hurt me as an adult. So I owned a lot of her pain as mine.' The former Disney channel star added, 'But now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, Dom, who I completely adore, and now that I see my dad finding happiness outside of that too. 'I can love them both as individuals instead of as a kind of parental pairing. I'm being an adult about it.' Miley's mom Tish Cyrus was previously married to Billy from 1993 until their divorce was finalized in 2023. That same year, she married Prison Break actor Dominic Purcell. The Flowers hitmaker also squashed rumors of a feud with her family and issued a statement on her Instagram stories which read: 'I rarely comment on rumors, but my mama and I are too tight for anything to ever come between us. 'She's my best friend. Like a lot of moms, she doesn't know how to work her phone and somehow unfollowed me - simple, coincidental and uninteresting.' The Flowers hitmaker also squashed rumors of a feud with her family and issued a statement on her Instagram stories which read: 'I rarely comment on rumors, but my mama and I are too tight for anything to ever come between us' Miley also commented on her relationship with Billy and added, 'My dad and I have had our challenges over the years. Now, in my 30s, family is my priority above all else. I'm at peace knowing bridges have been built and time has done a lot of healing.' The songstress concluded with: 'Grateful for the good health and love that flows through my family.' Billy shares daughter Miley as well as Noah, 25, and Braison, 31, with Tish. He also became stepfather to her other two children from a previous relationship: Brandi, 38, and Trace, 36.

PROF ROBERT TOMBS: British tolerance is being stretched to its limits. Mass immigration is destabilising our country
Last weekend, my cousin's lovely daughter, not long out of medical school, married her sweetheart – a handsome young doctor from an Indian family. The Hindu wedding ceremony was spectacular, colourful and huge fun for everyone. Watching as young English and Indian people danced together, I reflected that the day was a perfect example of multicultural integration as we all wish it to be.

Streaming fans can pick up 4 months of Disney+ for £1.99p/m
Disney+ has just unveiled a shock deal for new subscribers to its streaming platform. For a limited time this June, you can get four months of Disney+ for just £1.99 per month, down from £4.99. 1 This fantastic offer began today (11th June) and will run until 30th June, giving you just a few weeks to take advantage of the deal. At its usual price of £4.99 per month, this promotion saves you a total of £12 over the four months. That's a massive 60% discount – a price drop you don't often see from the House of Mouse's streaming platform. Deals like this are rare for Disney+. The last time it ran a similar deal was back in September, and that was only for 3 months of streaming. However, this promotion comes directly from Disney itself, making it a brilliant chance to save money on one of the most popular streaming services around. It's worth noting that this deal applies to the Disney+ Standard with Ads subscription, which is the service's entry-level plan. With this plan, you can stream in Full HD on two devices at the same time, and content is broken up by adverts. Yep, it's the no-frills version of Disney+ - but it's still an absolute bargain at that reduced monthly cost. For just £1.99 a month, you'll get access to the entire Disney+ catalogue. Parents, I imagine, will particularly appreciate this deal, with the school summer holidays fast approaching. Naturally, the entire catalogue of Disney's classic animated films is available to stream. The latest addition to the platform is the live-action remake of Snow White – perfect if you missed it in cinemas (and are ready to face those CGI dwarves). For Star Wars fans, the critically acclaimed Andor Series 2 is now available to stream in full. Marvel lovers also have plenty to get excited about, with the latest series, Ironheart, set to premiere on 25th June. But for my money, the biggest show on the horizon is Series 4 of The Bear. This intense, heart-stirring and ever-so-slightly-stressful cooking drama is one of the best shows on TV, and the new season drops on 26th June. I've been working up an appetite for this since that Season 3 finale last year. Honestly, it's worth the £1.99-per-month sign-up all by itself, in my opinion. Kitchen dramas, superheroes, guilty-pleasure Mormon wife reality TV - it's all there on Disney+. Curious? The Sun's Tech Editor has found other ways to get free Disney+ membership, one way saving you £60.
