Elizabeth Hurley Sparks Engagement Rumors with Billy Ray Cyrus

Elizabeth Hurley has ignited a flurry of engagement rumors with Billy Ray Cyrus following the appearance of a substantial diamond ring on her left hand in a recent Instagram post. Hurley, 61, and Cyrus, 65, publicly confirmed their relationship on Easter 2025, having initially met on the set of the 2022 film "Christmas in Paradise."

This week, Hurley shared a collection of behind-the-scenes images from her series "The 'Burbs," prominently featuring the sizable ring. In one photograph, she is seen wearing a bathrobe and taking a selfie, with her left hand positioned to draw attention to the sparkling jewel.

Sources have suggested to Page Six that the country music artist, who is the father of pop star Miley Cyrus, may have proposed to Hurley. The couple has reportedly been dating for over a year.

One insider commented on the situation, stating, "She’s filming The ‘Burbs; I hardly think this ring is a prop."

Representatives for Hurley and Cyrus have been contacted for comment.
