Actress and model Elizabeth Hurley is showing no signs of slowing down when it comes to sharing PDA-filled snaps with country music star Billy Ray Cyrus, posting a new set of photos from an intimate weekend at his Tennessee property.

Hurley, 59, and Cyrus, 62, who insiders claim are already discussing marriage, looked smitten in a series of Instagram posts shared by the actress over the weekend.

Hurley appeared effortlessly glamorous in a white lace blouse, blue jeans and aviator sunglasses, while Cyrus kept it casual in a purple plaid shirt and denim jeans.

Another shot showed the pair driving a golf buggy across Cyrus’ sprawling property, accompanied by one of his family dogs.

“Weekend in Tennessee,” Hurley captioned the post, adding a red heart emoji — a recurring symbol in her recent updates featuring Cyrus.

The post drew a flurry of excitement, with many fans commenting, “Looks like fun and romance,” and “You guys look perfect together.”

The social media posts come after the couple hard-launched their relationship over Easter, sharing a sweet snap of themselves canoodling by a fence.

Friends close to the pair told The Sun that despite their different backgrounds, Hurley and Cyrus have “a lot in common” and “share the same interests,” with insiders suggesting that “marriage could be on the cards.”

“Billy is very much Elizabeth’s type — he’s got a twinkle in his eye and a mischievous streak she can’t resist,” one source said.

Hurley was previously married to businessman Arun Nayar, tying the knot in 2007 in lavish ceremonies spanning England and India. The couple divorced amicably in 2011, with Hurley once revealing their split was so friendly it was “the cheapest case” her lawyer had handled.

Following her marriage with Mr Nayar, Hurley entered a high-profile relationship with Australian cricket legend Shane Warne.

As for Cyrus, he has spent time reflecting on a difficult period in his life. The Achy Breaky Heart singer revealed he received an unexpected text message from Hurley, whom he worked with on the 2022 holiday film Christmas In Paradise, when romance sparked.

“I didn’t even know the number,” Cyrus told the Ty Bentli Show podcast.

“I texted back, ‘Who is this?’ and it was Elizabeth Hurley.

“Of all the people to reach out when I needed a friend most, it was her.”

Although they hadn’t spoken in two years since filming together, Cyrus said he immediately remembered the “chemistry” the two shared on set.

“We just laughed, and at that time I wasn’t laughing a lot,” he said.

“The oddest part was that although we seemed so different, we had way more in common than I ever expected.”

Filmed in the Caribbean shortly after his separation from ex-wife Tish Cyrus, Christmas In Paradise marked the beginning of their bond, with the country singer describing Hurley as “a great human being” and “an impressively brilliant businesswoman,” even comparing her to Dolly Parton.

“If you can laugh together, you can make it through anything,” he added.

Cyrus also teased more glimpses of their relationship on social media, joking about fans’ observations that he’s always the one kissing Hurley.

“When she puts her cheek out there, I just kiss it — I can’t help it,” he said.

He went on to call their relationship “beautiful,” revealing that he has grown close to Hurley’s son, Damian, 23, describing him as “a great young man.”

“It’s been a long time since I’ve been this happy,” Cyrus said.

Hurley has been spending time at Cyrus’ Nashville farm, with both reportedly embracing the relaxed nature lifestyle away from the spotlight.

The pair’s relationship has surprised fans, coming just months after Cyrus’ highly publicised and tumultuous split from singer Firerose. According to reports, it was during that difficult time that Cyrus reconnected with Hurley, ultimately laying the foundation for their romance.

With insiders hinting at wedding bells on the horizon, it seems the couple’s love story may just be getting started.
