Billy Ray Cyrus Says Another Photo With Elizabeth Hurley is Coming
Billy Ray Cyrus shared the backstory to the joint Easter photo he posted with Elizabeth Hurley. Days after the unlikely duo shook up the Internet with what appeared to be an Instagram hard launch, the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer promised that another photo will be shared in the future.
In the first photo of the two, Cyrus, 63, and Hurley, 59, were seen leaning against a fence. Cyrus wore bunny ears on his head as he kissed Hurley on her cheek. The actress had a dreamy smile on her face as she leaned toward the Grammy winner.
During an April 25 interview on Apple Music Country’s The Ty Bentli Show, Cyrus explained that he reconnected with Hurley, who was his co-star in the 2022 movie Christmas in Paradise, when she texted him out of the blue.
Of the Easter photo, he said, "There will be one coming where she’s kissing me. Because people have been saying, ‘Why’s he always kissing her?’ Unfortunately, when I see her, when she puts her cheek out there, I don’t know what happens, I just kiss it."
Elsewhere in the interview, Cyrus admitted he felt “chemistry” with Hurley during their movie shoot, but they didn’t stay in touch. He had a short-lived marriage to singer Firerose in the interim, and Hurley later texted him to show her support after his divorce.
Cyrus did not confirm if he is in an exclusive relationship with Hurley, instead telling Bentli, “If all we ever were [are] the friends that we are [now], I would take that.”
"It's just been beautiful, and again, no expectations of where we go from here,” he added.
While no more still photos have been posted of Cyrus and Hurley—yet— the actress and model did post an Instagram video of what appeared to be the two of them riding together in an ATV as the sun set.
