Elizabeth Hurley Turns 60: A Look Back at Her Iconic Journey

LONDON, UK — Elizabeth Hurley, the English actress and model, celebrates her 60th birthday this week, continuing to capture headlines and redefine beauty standards for women around the world.

As she prepares to blow out candles at her birthday celebrations, Hurley will don one of her signature skimpy bikinis from her successful line, Elizabeth Hurley Beach. This fashion icon, known for her provocative style, first made waves in the 1990s with a bold, safety-pin adorned dress by Versace that garnered international attention.

Throughout her three-decade career, Hurley has remained a prominent figure in the entertainment industry, captivating audiences not just with her looks but with her savvy business acumen. Recently, she has been in the spotlight for her relationship with American country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, whom she met during the filming of the 2021 movie Christmas In Paradise. Cyrus has praised Hurley as a “great human being” who brings laughter into his life.

“It’s all about luck, timing, and getting the right part,” Hurley said during an interview reflecting on her rise to fame. She initially gained recognition alongside actor Hugh Grant until their high-profile split in 2000.

Despite the challenges she has faced, including public scandals and personal losses, Hurley has demonstrated resilience. She is a single mother to her son Damian, who is now 23, and often collaborates with him professionally, showcasing their close bond.

Hurley has become a symbol of beauty and empowerment in her later years, having been voted Maxim’s World’s Sexiest Woman last year at nearly 60. Her unwavering confidence is evident as she embraces her personal style and career.

As she enters a new decade, Hurley continues to inspire many with her journey, proving that age is merely a number. “Like that dress held together by safety pins, Elizabeth Hurley has tenaciously held her world together,” a friend remarked. Happy birthday, Elizabeth!
