Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus may be taking their unexpected Hollywood romance to a whole new level! The 61-year-old British actress and the 65-year-old country singer, who shocked fans when they first revealed their relationship, are reportedly engaged after approximately a year and a half together.
The rumors began heating up when Hurley shared behind-the-scenes photographs from the second season of The ‘Burbs on Instagram. Wearing a white robe, the glamorous actress appeared to be sporting an enormous diamond ring on the fourth finger of her left hand. Her 24-year-old son, Damian, reacted enthusiastically to the pictures, while Billy Ray added even more intrigue later in the week by including a ring emoji in his own social media post.
People familiar with the couple have reportedly confirmed their engagement, although neither Elizabeth nor Billy Ray has personally announced the news. For fans who initially struggled to imagine the British beauty dating Miley Cyrus’s country-star father, the possibility of a wedding is another unexpected twist.
Their romance became public in April 2025, when the pair shared a joint Easter post that immediately raised eyebrows. The surprising relationship sparked plenty of questions and some criticism of Hurley’s romantic choice. Damian, however, supported his mother’s new boyfriend from the beginning. Elizabeth and Billy Ray had originally met in 2022 while filming Christmas in Paradise, long before their friendship turned romantic.
Despite their seemingly different worlds, Hurley insists they have much more in common than people realize. During a summer interview, she explained that both prefer quiet countryside living to glamorous parties. Splitting their time between Britain and the United States, they enjoy staying home, cuddling and spending time outdoors. After a long period of being single, Elizabeth described the relationship as comfortable and natural from the start.

If the engagement leads to marriage, it will be Billy Ray’s fourth trip down the aisle. The singer finalized his divorce from Firerose in August 2024. Hurley, meanwhile, would be marrying for the second time. She was previously married to businessman Arun Nayar and famously enjoyed a long relationship with actor Hugh Grant. She was also engaged to cricketer Shane Warne before their split in 2013.
For now, the enormous diamond ring and mysterious social media hints are keeping everyone guessing. But after a romance that already surprised Hollywood, Elizabeth and Billy Ray may be preparing for their biggest relationship milestone yet.
