Hollywood is no stranger to unexpected romances, but few have raised as many eyebrows, or even smiles, as the pairing of Austin Powers star Elizabeth Hurley and country music icon Billy Ray Cyrus. While both of them have a fair share of history when it comes to whirlwind romances, fans were surprised to find out that the Christmas in Paradise co-stars were getting romantically involved in real life. And now, the duo has emerged as one of Hollywood’s most talked-about celebrity couples.
On Easter 2025, Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus made their relationship Instagram official. The Bedazzled actress shared a cosy photo of Billy Ray kissing her cheek against the rustic backdrop of her English countryside estate, simply captioned “Happy Easter.” Instantly, the unexpected couple became a trending topic, especially after reports claimed Billy Ray’s ex-wife, Tish Cyrus, had suspected a spark between them back in 2022 while filming Christmas in Paradise. Nevertheless, insiders maintain that the romance began well after the project wrapped.
