Liz Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus shocked the internet with the announcement of their new romance over the Easter weekend.
Hurley shared a photo on Instagram of Cyrus kissing her cheek, alongside the caption, “Happy Easter,” accompanied by a love heart emoji. The photo, which featured the couple in a field, instantly garnered attention from fans and friends alike, with some expressing their surprise. One commenter noted, “Who else totally did not have this one on their 2025 bingo card?” while another remarked, “How many of us were all like WAIT WHAT when we opened the app and saw this?”
While Hurley’s son, Damian Hurley, publicly expressed his approval by posting celebration and heart emojis under the picture, Billy Ray’s children have yet to comment on the relationship.

Reports indicate that Cyrus has a strained relationship with his kids. His son, Trace Cyrus, previously posted an open letter to his father, expressing concern for his well-being and the lack of involvement in his children’s lives. Trace wrote that he had been worried about his father for years, particularly highlighting how his daughter, Noah, desired a closer relationship with Billy Ray, to no avail.
Miley Cyrus, Billy Ray’s daughter, has been less vocal about the situation, although it was speculated that she had distanced herself from her father. Nonetheless, Cyrus has shared posts celebrating his daughters’ music, including Miley and younger sister Noah, expressing pride in their achievements.
Hurley, 59, and Cyrus, 63, met while working together on the 2022 film Christmas in Paradise. Though it is unclear when their professional relationship turned personal, Hurley hinted at their growing romance earlier this month by sharing an Instagram reel featuring herself and Cyrus on a beach, set to his song “She’s Not Cryin’ Anymore.”
Despite the mixed reactions, with some fans expressing concern over the couple’s differing political views, others have shown support for the relationship, sending well wishes for the pair.
