Actress and model Elizabeth Hurley has revealed a surprising detail about her wardrobe in a festive social media post, showing off a sweater that predates the birth of her only son.
A Festive Throwback from the Closet
The English actress, aged 60, took to Instagram on Monday from a picturesque snowy mountain location. She modelled a cream-coloured Fair Isle patterned polo neck sweater for a festive snap. Hurley captioned the post with a revelation about the garment's age, stating she had purchased the Ralph Lauren piece before her son Damian was born.
"Shopping from my closet- I bought this @ralphlauren sweater before I had my son (@damianhurley1 is now 23)," she wrote. Damian Hurley, her son with the late businessman Steve Bing, was born in 2002.
Family History and New Romance
Elizabeth conceived Damian during a brief relationship with Steve Bing shortly after her split from actor Hugh Grant in 2000. Bing initially contested paternity, though a DNA test later confirmed he was the father. The businessman, who never became part of his son's life, died in 2020.
The festive post comes shortly after Hurley shared a loved-up picture with her new boyfriend, singer Billy Ray Cyrus, 64. In the image, she wore a sheer Versace negligee while cuddling Cyrus, who was dressed in a denim jacket. She captioned that post "Happy cuddles & Versace."
Her son Damian was among the commenters, leaving a supportive message with a heart emoji. He has also publicly defended Cyrus, calling him "one of the sweetest men" he's ever met and praising the happiness he brings his mother.
Ageless Looks and Fan Admiration
Fans were quick to praise Hurley's seemingly ageless appearance in both the festive sweater snap and the romantic photo with Cyrus. Comments ranged from admiration for her looks to approval of her new relationship, with followers branding the couple "cute" and expressing happiness for her.
Hurley confirmed her relationship with the "Achy Breaky Heart" singer in April of this year with an Easter Sunday snap. The actress continues to share glimpses of her life, from poolside bikini photos to cosy winter moments, much to the delight of her social media followers.
