Elizabeth Hurley, the celebrated English actress and model, has captivated audiences for decades with her stunning looks and memorable performances. Born on June 10, 1965, the 60-year-old has starred in numerous films and television shows, including "Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery" and "The Royals". Beyond her professional achievements, Hurley's personal life has also been a subject of public interest, particularly her marriage to Indian businessman Arun Nayar.
Hurley and Nayar's relationship began in late 2002. Nayar, a wealthy businessman and heir to a textile fortune in Mumbai, was previously married to an Italian fashion model. The couple's wedding in March 2007 was a lavish affair, beginning with a private civil ceremony at Sudeley Castle in Winchcombe, England. The celebrations continued with a traditional Hindu ceremony at Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, India. The wedding was a star-studded event, with over 200 guests in attendance.
The marriage, however, was not to last. In December 2010, Hurley announced their separation. She filed for divorce in April 2011, citing Nayar's "unreasonable behavior". The divorce was finalized in June 2011, marking the end of their four-year marriage. Following her divorce from Nayar, Hurley became engaged to Australian cricketer Shane Warne in late 2011.
Before her marriage to Arun Nayar, Elizabeth Hurley was known for her long-term relationship with actor Hugh Grant. The couple met in 1987 and became a prominent celebrity couple in the 1990s. Hurley gained significant media attention when she accompanied Grant to the premiere of "Four Weddings and a Funeral" in 1994, wearing a memorable black Versace dress.
In addition to her acting career, Hurley has also been a successful model and businesswoman. She became a spokesmodel for Estée Lauder in 1995 and has featured in numerous campaigns for the brand. She also has her own beachwear company, Elizabeth Hurley Beach. In 2024, Hurley acted in and produced the film "Strictly Confidential," which was written and directed by her son Damian.
Despite the end of her marriage to Arun Nayar, Elizabeth Hurley continues to be a prominent figure in the public eye. Her career continues to evolve, and she remains a captivating personality, admired for her beauty, talent, and entrepreneurial spirit.
