In the picture, Hurley couldn’t keep the smile off her face as she leant in for a kiss with the Achy Breaky Heart crooner, 63, who gave her a peck on the cheek.

The couple even appeared to have coordinated their outfits as Hurley looked stylish in a plaid shirt, cowboy hat, and faded jeans as she 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 Hurley 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.

DailyMail.com has reached out to the stars’ reps for comment.

Hurley’s last long-term relationship with 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.

Cyrus, meanwhile, finalized his whirlwind divorce from singer Firerose in August, just months after a dramatic break-up that played out both publicly and privately.

And after an increasingly bitter and public break up, during which each accused the other of verbal and emotional abuse, court documents obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com show that 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 Cyrus, 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 cozying up to British royalty Hurley.

Social media immediately blew up with reactions to the unexpected pairing as they were sent into a frenzy.

Comments included: ‘Didn’t have this one on my bingo card’; ‘Omg now this is odd.’

‘Hoping this is an AI image’; ‘I’m not hating this…’

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

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

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

Hurley then had a high-profile engagement to Warne, though the couple never made it down the aisle before calling it quits in 2013.

Since then, the actress has kept her love life relatively under wraps—until now.

Cyrus’s love life has been a lot more tumultuous than Hurley’s, with drama that rivals his music career.

In September, DailyMail.com exclusively uncovered explosive audio in which Cyrus could be heard berating his then-wife, Australian singer Firerose, whom he married in October 2023.

The foul-mouthed rant, fueled by Cyrus’ frustration over being late for a show, exposed the toxic nature of their relationship, with him calling Firerose a ‘selfish b****’ and warning her, ‘If you had just left it the f*** alone, now I’m really f****** p**ed.’

Further audio obtained by DailyMail.com painted an even darker picture, revealing Cyrus’s contempt not just for Firerose, but for multiple women in his life.

He referred to his daughter Miley as ‘devil’ and shockingly labeled her a ‘skank,’ while his ex-wife Tish, whom he had been married to for 30 years, was belittled as ‘s***’  and worse.

In one text exchange with his publicist, Cyrus even called Tish a ‘liar’, dragging her through the mud in a display of bitterness.

His whirlwind marriage to Firerose, coming just months after his divorce from Tish, is said to have caused a rift with Miley, who notably snubbed her father during her Grammy acceptance speech in February.

The former child star, who grew up on the Disney Channel alongside her father, famously snubbed Billy Ray in her Grammy Awards acceptance speech in February.

Cyrus was still married to Tish when he first met Firerose in 2010.

The Sydney-born musician was just 22 and Cyrus was 48.

The two became friends but nothing happened romantically until he reached out to Firerose a decade later and asked her to duet with him on a version of Tanya Tucker’s ‘Delta Dawn.’

He was still married to Tish at the time but told Firerose they were ‘soulmates’ and promised her a romance for the ages.

Instead, just seven months after their October 2023 marriage, with those words ringing hollow in her ears, Cyrus filed for divorce.
