Country music star Billy Ray Cyrus, 65, and British actress Elizabeth Hurley, 61, are engaged after more than a year of dating. The couple first met while filming the 2022 holiday movie "Christmas in Paradise" and reconnected in early 2025. They made their relationship public on Easter Sunday that year.
Engagement rumors began circulating when Hurley shared photos on Instagram from the set of her series "The 'Burbs," prominently displaying a large diamond ring on her left hand. Shortly after, Cyrus posted on Instagram, concluding his caption with a ring emoji, further fueling speculation. Sources have since confirmed that Cyrus proposed, and Hurley accepted.
This will be the fourth marriage for Cyrus, who has six children, including pop star Miley Cyrus. Hurley was previously married to Indian businessman Arun Nayar and was engaged to Australian cricketer Shane Warne. The couple has not yet announced a wedding date.
Fans have expressed excitement over the news, noting the couple's shared love for the countryside and their experiences in the entertainment industry. Hurley has previously commented on their similarities, joking that they are "like twins" due to their matching hairstyles.
Congratulations to the happy couple on their engagement!
