Elizabeth Hurley and Billy Ray Cyrus: A Love Story Amid Family Drama

THE DRAMA UNFOLDS: ELIZABETH HURLEY'S NEW BOYFRIEND BILLY RAY CYRUS UNDER FIRE FROM HIS OWN SON!

It's a romance that has left everyone stunned - Elizabeth Hurley, 59, and her new beau Billy Ray Cyrus, who made headlines when they went public with their relationship on Easter Sunday. The pair looked loved-up as they attended The Royal Academy of Dance fundraising evening at the swanky Mandarin Oriental Hotel in London on Monday. But what's got tongues wagging is not just Elizabeth's stunning red carpet look or Billy's dashing attire - it's his family drama that's about to get messy!

A LOVE MATCH LIKE NO OTHER

Elizabeth, who stunned in a plunging midi dress and paired it with gold platform heels and loose curls, seemed smitten with the 61-year-old country singer. The two of them, who first met while working on the 2022 Christmas flick "Christmas in Paradise," have been going strong ever since they went Instagram official in April.

BUT WAIT, THERE'S FAMILY DRAMA!

In a recent interview at the Breast Cancer Research Foundation's Hot Pink Party in New York City, Elizabeth addressed what many might consider an odd coupling. "I think people found Billy and I being together a little surprising," she told Page Six. But, sweetheart, not to us - we know that opposites attract!

Elizabeth revealed that they share a lot of common interests: "We both like to laugh a lot, and we both love the country. And we both love country music, both love movies. We've got a lot in common — and cowboy boots, definitely!" Who knew?

BILLY'S TROUBLED PAST

But things take a dark turn when you dig into Billy's personal life. The singer has been married three times and is father to six children - yes, SIX! But what's shocking is that he's reportedly estranged from several of them, including daughters Miley, 32, and Noah, 25, whom he shares with ex-wife Tish Cyrus.

TRAGEDY STRIKES

In a recent scathing Instagram post, Billy's son Trace, 36, called out his dad for being "evil" and "delusional." Trace shared a photo of the Achy Breaky Heart singer and wrote: "This man is so hungry for fame it's pathetic. He really flew to Italy for a fashion show but wouldn't come to LA for Mammie's funeral while he was still married to my mom."

"THE LAMEST MAN ON PLANET EARTH"

Trace went on to call his dad "the lamest man to ever walk planet earth" and claimed that even after getting a $60,000 private jet as a gift from him, Billy didn't bother attending his grandmother's funeral. Ouch! And in another post, Trace wrote: "The best thing to come from your downfall is it made me go into beast mode. I refuse to be a washed-up, delusional, evil person when I'm old like you."

A SON'S LAMENT

But what really got our attention was when Trace jumped on Instagram Stories and shared some more of his grievances against his dad. He wrote: "Also why does he think that homeless hairstyle looks good? So weird." And as for Billy's recent trip to Italy with Elizabeth, Trace snapped: "He flew to Italy for a fashion show but wouldn't come to LA for Mammie's funeral while he was still married to my mom."

A FATHER'S REACTION

In response to his son's accusations, one follower wrote: "Seems like a cry for help from a son that desperately needs attention from his father. Bullying him isn't the answer btw." But Trace shot back: "I've surpassed him in every metric as a man on this planet. There's nothing left to learn from his except from his mistakes."

THE CYRUS FAMILY DRAMA CONTINUES...

This is not the first time Billy has been under fire for his family drama. In January, his son Trace begged him to get help after his "trainwreck" performance at Trump's inauguration. At the time, Cyrus had taken to the stage and improvised a cappella due to technical issues - and it didn't exactly go smoothly.

BUT WILL BILLY LISTEN?

It seems that Billy has ignored his son's pleas for help and continues to focus on his music career. But with Elizabeth by his side, we can only hope that he'll finally get the help he needs to patch things up with his family.
