Elizabeth Hurley marked her 60th birthday with more than just cake and candles. The British actress and entrepreneur made waves on social media by posting a nude photo in a field, accompanied by a heartfelt reflection on love, career, and personal growth. It was a bold moment that symbolized more than a milestone—it captured the start of a new chapter.
"Happy birthday to me! This year has already been a wild ride," Hurley wrote in her Instagram caption. The image, showing her cross-legged and smiling broadly, sparked admiration across platforms. She continued, "Feeling very blessed and grateful for having the best friends & family in the world." But the post wasn't just about personal gratitude. It was a declaration of something deeper—she's in love.
That love, it turns out, is with country singer Billy Ray Cyrus. Hurley and Cyrus confirmed their relationship publicly over Easter in April 2025. This revelation surprised many, especially given Cyrus' highly publicized split from singer Firerose in late 2024. According to sources close to Cyrus, their bond began when Hurley reached out with a kind message during his divorce, a gesture that quickly led to something more. "I love you," Cyrus wrote beneath Hurley's birthday post, making their connection Instagram official.
The relationship has since gained momentum. A report from Entertainment Tonight noted that the couple has been seen together frequently, both in the UK and the US. "It's genuine," a source told the outlet. "They're both in a place where they're prioritizing joy and connection." Their romance has reportedly brought renewed energy to both of their careers.
Hurley also used the birthday spotlight to highlight her enduring partnership with Estée Lauder and her swimwear brand. "I'm proud of what I've built, proud of where I am," she shared. This sentiment reflects a broader shift for Hurley, who has increasingly embraced authenticity and self-celebration.
While reactions to the post ranged from praise to playful surprise, one thing is certain: Elizabeth Hurley isn't afraid of reinvention. At 60, she's as fearless as ever—confident in her body, her brand, and her new relationship.
In an industry that often sidelines women past a certain age, Hurley's statement was clear. Visibility, love, and boldness aren't limited by the calendar. For Hurley, 60 isn't a finish line. It's a launchpad.
