Elizabeth Hurley's Summer of Love: Model and Actress Spends Quality Time with Country Heartthrob Billy Ray Cyrus

In a rare moment of vulnerability, 60-year-old supermodel Elizabeth Hurley has opened up about her whirlwind romance with country singer Billy Ray Cyrus in an exclusive interview with Hello! magazine. The Achy Breaky Heart hitmaker, who is no stranger to the spotlight, is trying his best to pass on his musical skills to the stunner, but as it turns out, she's still a bit of a novice.

"I've been in England all summer for the first time ever and have loved every moment," Elizabeth gushed. "Billy is teaching me to play the guitar; right now I'm appalling, but I'm hoping to improve!" We can't help but chuckle at her candid confession - after all, who wouldn't want to learn from a seasoned musician like Billy Ray Cyrus?

The 60-year-old model/actress went public with her new romance with the Achy Breaky Heart hitmaker earlier this year and she's now revealed he's trying to pass on his musical skills to her but she's 'appalling'

But despite her struggles with music, it's clear that Elizabeth has found her match in the charming country singer. The two have been inseparable this summer, and sources close to them reveal that their romance "feels nice" because of his unwavering support.

"Billy is incredibly supportive," a friend of the couple spills to The Scholarly Note.com. "He's always there for Elizabeth, whether it's attending her film premieres or just being a rock for her when she needs him."

And it seems that Billy Ray has won over Elizabeth's family too - including her son Damian, who recently baked her a birthday cake on her 60th milestone.

She told Hello! magazine: 'I've been in England all summer for the first time ever and have loved every moment. Billy is teaching me to play the guitar; right now I'm appalling but I'm hoping to improve!'

"It was the most delicious cake I've ever had!" Elizabeth exclaims. "Damian is such a talented young man; he's inherited his mother's culinary skills, no doubt!"

As for Elizabeth herself, she's been enjoying some well-deserved downtime this summer, and has revealed that she's made a conscious effort to prioritize her family life over work commitments.

"I've always enjoyed work more than play," she admits. "But it's taken me a while to realize the importance of balancing my career with my personal life."

Elizabeth turned 60 in June and she's revealed she spent the day at home surrounded by friends and family and her son Damian, 23, baked her a cake. Seen in June

Elizabeth's newfound focus on spending quality time at home has been met with enthusiasm from those close to her, who claim that she's finally found a sense of peace and contentment.

"She looks happier than we've seen her in years," a source reveals. "She's finally found someone who understands her needs and is willing to support her."

But don't get too comfortable, Elizabeth fans - the supermodel still has plenty on her plate, including adopting two adorable tortoises with Billy Ray.

"We've had these two little tortoises for a few months now," she gushes. "They're such sweethearts; I'm absolutely besotted with them."

And as if that weren't enough, Elizabeth also boasts an impressive collection of bird-watching experiences under her belt - including spotting the rare and elusive Goshawk.

"I've become something of a bird watcher," she confesses. "We saw these incredible birds just last week; they're unbelievable."

So what's next for this unlikely couple? Sources close to them claim that Elizabeth is considering taking on more acting roles, but only if it means spending quality time with Billy Ray by her side.

"Billy and I are looking forward to many more adventures together," she smiles. "And who knows? Maybe we'll even release an album together - after all, I'm still appalling at playing the guitar!"

But one thing's for sure: Elizabeth Hurley has never looked happier - or more in love.
