Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley have gone official with a romance. The famed actor and the country singer seem a bit like an unusual pair, but love apparently has bloomed. While Hurley and Cyrus’ most recent Instagram upload is the first public confirmation of a relationship, Hurley teased the romance a couple of weeks ago.

Billy Ray Cyrus announces his relationship on Instagram

Billy Ray Cyrus is giving love another shot after two very public breakups. The country singer is officially in a relationship with British actor Elizabeth Hurley. Cyrus and Hurley took to Instagram on Easter Sunday to share a snapshot of them cuddled up together. The duo was leaning against a fence, looking rather comfortable with each other, while Cyrus wore a headband with bunny ears attached.

The photo, which appears to have been shared by Hurley first, was simply captioned, “Happy Easter.” It’s unclear where the photo was taken, but fans were shocked. The comments section of both posts is filled with followers who are unsure how to process the big news.

Elizabeth Hurley teased a romance on social media weeks ago

While the most recent post is the first official confirmation that Hurley and Cyrus are an item, she actually teased the romance weeks ago. On April 9, Hurley uploaded a video of herself vacationing in the Maldives. While Cyrus wasn’t visible in the video, Hurley did overlay Cyrus’ famous song, “She’s Not Cryin’ Anymore’ over the video in her Instagram upload. She also blows a kiss at the cameraman. Presumably, Cyrus was the cameraman.

On April 17, she uploaded another video of herself alone on a beach, but it’s clear she’s interacting with someone behind the camera. While she didn’t use one of Cyrus’ songs in the second video, she did use Lana Del Rey’s “Say Yes to Heaven” to set the mood.

It is unclear how long the couple has been together or how they met.
