Elizabeth Hurley, Billy Ray Cyrus Make Red Carpet Debut Family Affair
Originally appeared on E! Online
Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus' official public debut as a couple may warm your achy, breaky heart.
The pair stepped out together at the Orizzonti | Rosso exhibition opening dinner at Palazzo Barberini in Rome, Italy May 24, and made the special occasion a family affair. Miley Cyrus' dad and the Austin Powers actress were accompanied by her son, model Damian Hurley, 23.
Elizabeth, 59, wore a hot pink, V-neck Safiyaa gown with cape sleeves and silver platform heels as she made her way down the brick pathway alongside the step-and-repeat wall with her boyfriend. Billy Ray, 63, sported a black jacket and matching pants, boots, sunglasses and a feather-adorned hat. Damian—whose father is the Royals alum' late ex Steve Bing—arrived in a red Valentino suit.
Billy Ray shared a photo of himself with Elizabeth on Instagram. She commented, writing, "Roma," adding four emojis of revolving hearts. He also commented with two red heart emojis.
The former costars were friends before they began their relationship. They bonded while filming their 2022 movie after the Hannah Montana alum separated from his ex-wife Tish Cyrus, with whom he shares Miley, 31, as well as kids Brandi Cyrus, 37, Trace Cyrus, 36, Braison Cyrus, 31, and Noah Cyrus, 25.
"We did very few scenes together but the couple times we were in the same scene there was a chemistry there," Billy Ray said on the April 24 episode of Apple Music Country's The Ty Bentli Show, per People. "We just laughed, and it was at a time I wasn't laughing a lot."
He continued, "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."
Their romance, Elizabeth said, "was unexpected."
"But we're very happy together," she told E! News at the Breast Cancer Research Foundation's Hot Pink Party May 13. "And hopefully we'll have a great life."
The pair took many fans by surprise when they went public with their relationship. Look back at more surprising celeb couples...

Elizabeth and Billy Ray went public with their relationship in April on Easter Sunday, three years after they filmed the movie Christmas in Paradise together. The pair shared a joint Instagram post showing the country music star kissing his former costar as the two lean against a wooden fence on a farm.
Billy Ray, who has a farm in Tennessee, wore a blue denim shirt, striped pants and a pair of green bunny ears in the pic. Elizabeth—sporting a blue plaid button-down shirt, jeans and straw hat— captioned the post, "Happy Easter," adding a red heart emoji.
Damian commented with emojis of a partying face and a red heart. He also expressed support in a similar way for a pic Billy Ray shared of himself kissing Elizabeth later in April.
