Billy Ray Cyrus ‘kept relationship with Elizabeth Hurley a secret’ from daughter Miley

Billy Ray Cyrus reportedly hid his new relationship with actress Elizabeth Hurley from his superstar daughter Miley, with sources claiming the singer, 32, ‘won’t be happy’ about their romance.

Elizabeth, 59, whose last long-term relationship with late Aussie cricketer Shane Warne ended in 2013, confirmed she is dating the US country star, 63, over the weekend when they went Instagram official.

Now, an insider has come forward to allege three-time Grammy winner Miley had no idea they were even together, reported New Idea just hours after their Easter debut. 

‘Of course Miley didn’t know,’ a source claimed to the publication.

‘She stays away from her dad as much as possible. She won’t be happy about this. She’s about to launch an album and a movie and this is going to overshadow it all!’

Miley’s ninth studio album Something Beautiful is set to release on May 30 with the accompanying film coming soon after in June. 

Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Billy Ray’s representatives for further comment.  

Elizabeth and Billy Ray shocked fans during the long Easter weekend when they revealed their new romance on Instagram. 

The couple appeared to coordinate their outfits as Elizabeth donned a plaid shirt, cowboy hat, and faded jeans and leaned against a rustic fence while Billy Ray dressed in full Western gear and a pair of floppy bunny ears.

While the duo didn’t include a caption spelling things out, with Elizabeth only writing ‘Happy Easter’, the photo spoke for itself and marked their first public display as a couple.

Elizabeth’s son Damian appeared to give their union his seal of approval as he dropped a heart and clapping emoji in the comments section.

While it is not clear when the couple started dating, they have known each other for a number of years, having both starred in 2022’s Christmas in Paradise.

Elizabeth’s last long-term relationship with late Aussie cricketer Shane Warne ended in 2013, following a marriage to Arun Nayar, a 13-year romance with Hugh Grant, and a son, Damian, with the late Steve Bing. 

Meanwhile, Billy Ray finalised his whirlwind divorce from Australian singer Firerose in August, just months after a dramatic break-up played out both publicly and privately.

And after an increasingly bitter and public split, during which each accused the other of verbal and emotional abuse, court documents obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com showed Firerose walked away with $0.

But according to a source, Firerose was perfectly content with how things played out.

‘She settled for nothing just to be done with him and get away from the situation,’ the insider told DailyMail.com exclusively.

The split reportedly strained his relationship with daughter Miley, who notably left him out of her Grammy acceptance speech.

But now it looks like the country star is back in the saddle—and happily cosying up to British royalty Elizabeth.

The Bedazzled star’s love life has been just as headline-grabbing as her iconic red carpet appearances.

She famously dated actor Hugh, 64, for 13 years, and despite their split in 2000, the two have remained close friends.

In 2007, she married Indian businessman Arun, 60, but the marriage ended four years later.

Elizabeth then had a high-profile engagement to Shane, who died in 2022 aged 52, though the couple never made it down the aisle before calling it quits in 2013.

She also had a brief relationship with American businessman Steve, who died in 2020 aged 50, which resulted in the birth of her only child Damian.
