Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley went public with their romance earlier this year, and the musician has now shared an update on their relationship after their red carpet debut
Fans have been given an update on Billy Ray Cyrus and Liz Hurley’s relationship this week. The news comes after the couple, who announced their romance earlier this year, made their red carpet debut together just a few days ago.
Billy Ray, 63, and Liz, 59, were among the guests at a dinner celebrating the launch of the Orizzonti / Rosso exhibition, promoting Valentino, in Rome on Saturday. They were joined at the event in Italy by Liz’s son Damian Hurley, 23. Following the event, hosted by Fondazione Valentino Garavani e Giancarlo Giammetti, musician Billy Ray posted about the experience on Instagram. It included sharing footage of himself and Liz attending the special occasion.
They were seen walking arm-in-arm towards a car at the start of the video shared with fans. It then showed them holding hands inside the venue, with mannequins modelling red dresses visible behind the couple in that part of the clip.
Alongside the video, Billy Ray confirmed that he’s officially in a relationship with Liz. He told his followers that she has become his “girlfriend”. He wrote in the caption of the post yesterday: “With my beautiful girlfriend in Rome.”
Billy Ray used KC and The Sunshine Band’s That’s the Way (I Like It) as the soundtrack of his post. Liz shared similar footage on her account recently and the actor instead used Sade’s Paradise as the music accompanying her version.
It wasn’t the only content from the event that Billy Ray shared. He also posted photos of himself and Liz together, including a group photo that also included Damian. Referencing the Bellamy Brothers’ song that he set to the post to, he wrote beside a heart emoji in the caption: “Let your love flow.”
Billy Ray and Liz announced their romance on the platform earlier this year, sharing a photo of themselves at Easter. They are said to have first crossed paths whilst working on the film Christmas in Paradise, released in 2022, and then reconnected years later.
Liz spoke about their relationship, which she teased was “unexpected” and expressed hope that the couple have a future together. Speaking with E! News, she said: “It was unexpected. But we’re very happy together. And hopefully we’ll have a great life.”
Billy Ray is now expected to be part of the celebrations for her 60th birthday next month. Ahead of her birthday, Liz spoke about the special occasion in an interview with HELLO! magazine that was published earlier this month.
She shared with the outlet that her partner is set to be in the UK for the occasion. Liz said: “I’m looking forward to celebrating with Billy Ray. He should be in England for my birthday. He’ll be meeting my family – and my dogs – and hopefully, it’ll be lovely.”
