Elizabeth Hurley Speaks Out About Whirlwind Romance With Billy Ray Cyrus

I think we were all watching Billy Ray Cyrus closely as of late after his abysmal inauguration performance, but apparently he's in a relationship with Elizabeth Hurley, so that's positive.

It hadn't been looking up for Billy Ray Cyrus recently. People were worried about his health. There was good reason for it too. His appearance at the inauguration of Donald Trump was nothing short of a disaster. His mumbled, stumbled, act was painful to watch. He looked rough as guts, too.

But Elizabeth Hurley has confirmed that she and Billy Ray Cyrus are in fact in a relationship. The stumbling rockstar has bagged himself an upstanding supermodel, and she's happy about it. "I think people found Billy and I being together a little surprising," she said, speaking to Page Six. "It's not surprising to me because we're actually quite similar and get on extremely well. There has been quite a reaction."

Hurley And Billy Ray Have Plenty To Talk About

According to Elizabeth Hurley, she has a lot in common with Billy Ray Cyrus. "We both like to laugh a lot, and we both love the country. And, we both love country music, both love movies. We've got a lot in common — and cowboy boots, definitely."

If that's good enough for her, then I am happy for them both. Also, if it helps straighten old Billy Ray out a bit, that's no bad thing. Elizabeth Hurley is a woman with her stuff together. She doesn't need some stumbling old wino on her arm.

It's always nice to see a couple find love later in life. For these two, they will be able to enjoy their country music and cowboy boots together. The two of them still have families apart from each other, but I don't think Billy Ray will have too much problem with his.

Elizabeth Hurley, on the other hand, showed up with her son Damian at the Breast Cancer Research Foundation's Hot Pink Party, where she confirmed her relationship. The two of them looked very handsome together, done up in all their finest. Damian is 23 years old.
