Insiders have disclosed intimate details surrounding the budding romance and upcoming wedding plans of Liz Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus, igniting a mixture of excitement and concern among those closest to the couple. Initially met with skepticism when the pair’s relationship surfaced last Easter, Liz, 60, and Billy, 64, have since transformed their love story into a series of public displays of affection, shared red carpet appearances, and cozy retreats between England and Nashville.
In a recent interview, Hurley openly praised the country music legend, referring to him as “fabulous” and expressing her happiness with their relationship. Behind the scenes, however, friends of the English actress have voiced apprehensions over Billy Ray’s reputation as a “bad boy” of Hollywood, a narrative entwined with past turbulent relations and personal struggles, including substance abuse allegations and a widely publicized divorce.
As the holiday season approaches, sources reveal that the couple is contemplating a winter wedding, aiming for a ceremony before the year concludes. Friends close to the duo report that Hurley has been enthusiastic about the idea of a small, intimate wedding, even hinting at elopement as a possibility. The couple has discussed running off to Las Vegas for a surprise wedding, a move that wouldn’t shock their circle given Hurley’s adventurous spirit.
Their friendship dates back to 2022 when they starred together in the romantic comedy “Christmas in Paradise.” Despite being engaged to another woman during their initial connection, Billy Ray’s past relationships have been marked by dramatic splits, raising red flags for Liz’s friends, who still recall his tumultuous history.

Reports indicate that Liz has been a significant stabilizing force in Billy Ray’s life. Emerging from the fallout of a challenging divorce and familial estrangement, his bond with Hurley has reportedly rejuvenated his relationships, especially with his daughter Miley Cyrus. Friends of Billy have noted a marked improvement in his role as a father since he and Liz became involved, crediting her for encouraging him to mend fences with his children.
Despite their apparent happiness, those around Hurley remain cautious. With a history of relationships with men notorious for being “bad boys”—including long-term partnerships with Hugh Grant and Shane Warne—Liz’s choice of partner continues to raise eyebrows. Many worry that the initial passion of their relationship might cloud her judgment, given their contrasting backgrounds.
Nevertheless, Hurley remains adamant in championing her relationship. Friends who express reservations risk alienation, as Liz is reportedly committed to moving forward with Billy Ray, undeterred by potential skepticism from others. With both partners embracing the idea of a future together, the holiday season could soon transform into a time of celebration for the couple, as they prepare to solidify their bond in front of family and friends—or perhaps in an unexpectedly private affair.
