LIZ Hurley surprised fans by sparking relationship rumours with Billy Ray Cyrus with a loved-up kissing photo over Easter.
And while a romance between the English actress, 59, and American tattooed country singer, 63, may initially seem unlikely, a body language expert shared how it revealed their sex is off the charts.

“This is Liz signalling that she is the one being adored. As Billy plants a bestowed kiss on the side of her head Liz’s smile looks indulgent as she accepts it graciously.
“Her tilted back head suggests she is smitten but she also looks in charge here and the way her right arm is stretched away out of the pose suggests her personal independence is still very much a factor if she finds the need to make a hasty exit.
“There is some strong sexual signalling here too though.
“Liz’s left hand is placed high on her inner thigh with the fingers very close to the crotch area.
“Billy’s left hand creates a synchronised mirrored placement only his crotch area is hidden behind the large wooden stick he is holding in what could be seen as an unconsciously phallic gesture.
“It’s subliminal signaling that suggests a passionate relationship.”
Austin Powers actress Liz has a history of dating troubled men, including love cheats Hugh Grant and the late cricketer Shane Warne.
The body language expert suggested that the match may not be as random as first expected.
Judi added: “Liz’s dating history suggests a soft spot for men that are either a personality challenge or a prime target for an image make-over or both so Billy should tick a lot of boxes in terms of sparking her interest.”
While Liz typically turns heads with her glamorous, head-turning dresses, Judi suggested that her decision to wear jeans and a shirt was deliberate.
She added: “This performative pose shows her making wardrobe concessions by swapping her usual glam style for a country & western cosplay to create a mirrored ‘fit’ with Billy but the pitch perfect styling involved suggests she won’t be going down the full Daisy Duke route any time now.”
It is perhaps not surprising to hear their bond has flourished, as Liz believes she can “save” Billy after his years of personal woes.
The past 12 months have seen the Achy Breaky Heart singer in the grip of a family feud; facing allegations of domestic abuse by his younger, third wife Firerose — which he denies; and a cringeworthy performance at an inauguration event for US President Donald Trump, which led to him being widely mocked amid a series of technical difficulties.

However, The Sun can reveal they reconnected last year when he turned to the actress and model for help as his third marriage crumbled.
A source said: “Liz has been keeping the whole thing under wraps and has barely told anyone.
“She wanted to make sure there was really something special between them before telling the world.

“He has had a really hard time, but she has been there helping him turn things around.
“Liz has been really great for him, but her friends are cautious because of what’s been said in the past about him.
“She insists he has turned a corner and is a changed man.”
AlamyLiz and Billy first met in 2021 playing the romantic leads on the set of the film Christmas In Paradise[/caption]The couple went public with their relationship on Sunday, when Liz shared a photo on Instagram of Billy kissing her.
Alongside the picture, she simply wrote, “Happy Easter”, followed by a heart emoji.
Family drama
Showing his support for the romance, her son Damian commented with party and heart emojis.
But, tellingly, none of Billy’s six children have acknowledged the post.
That is because the Cyrus family fell into a divisive feud in 2022, when it was announced that Billy Ray and Tish — who is pop sensation Miley Cyrus’s mum — were divorcing after 29 years of marriage.

This family breakdown is one heartache Liz has been helping Billy address.
The Bedazzled actress is famously close to her son Damian, often posting photos together online and gushing about their love for each other.
She has been urging Billy to take the same approach with his girls.
A source said: “Liz has been encouraging him to mend his fractured relationship with his daughter Miley, as well as his other children.
“Her closeness with Damian is inspiring.”

But The Sun can reveal the couple have been linked for a while — even if they are only now going public.
Early spark
A source on Christmas In Paradise has told how they first grew close on set, spending long periods alone together.
While they were not seen kissing, crew members were suspicious about a potential love affair as Billy, who was still married to Tish at the time, spoke to almost no one other than Liz.
The movie, released in 2022, was mainly filmed in December 2021.
One of the producers, who wants to stay anonymous, told The Sun: “Anytime I saw him, he was always around Elizabeth.
“They were extremely close. I noticed they were getting quite close.
“But he, at the time, was still married to Miley’s mum Tish.
“He’s quite an oddball. A bit strange. He had security guards with him at all times.
“And no one else was ever with him.”
Liz starred in Christmas in Paradise with Billy and Kelsey Grammer, which was released in 2022InstagramHe added: “That was the first time they ever met. They hugged a few times, but I did not think anything at the time.
“But now that I saw they are dating, I thought maybe that’s when it started.
“Billy was very reclusive on set, but he would spend lots of time with Elizabeth.
“They were extremely close considering he was always keeping to himself, always with his security and his manager.
“The only person who was ever really around him was just Elizabeth.
“The rest of the cast was separate. It was just Elizabeth and him together.”
Who has Liz Hurley dated?
ELIZABETH Hurley dropped a massive hint she is involved with music legend Billy Ray Cyrus by sharing a snap of the two smooching over Easter. With speculation about Liz's most recent romance rampant, here's everything you need to know about some of the Hollywood star's exes....
Hugh Grant (1987–2000)
Liz and Hugh Grant began dating in 1987 after meeting on the set of Remando Al Viento.
Their 13-year relationship became one of the era’s most high-profile romances, enduring public scandals and intense media scrutiny.
The Notting Hill star was arrested after being caught with sex worker Divine Brown in 1995.
Despite splitting in 2000, the two remain close friends, with Hugh even serving as godfather to Liz’s son Damien.
Denis Leary (2000)
Liz and actor Denis Leary were linked in 2000 while filming the crime-comedy caper Double Whammy, which came out the following year.
These rumors were fueled by their close friendship and numerous public appearances together.
Despite this rampant speculation, Denis and Liz maintain that they were never romantically involved.
Shane Warne (2010–2013)
Liz and Australian cricketer Shane Warne started dating in 2010, before becoming engaged in 2011.
Their relationship was highly publicized, but they called off their engagement in 2013.
Despite the split, they always spoke positively of each other in the media, right up until Shane’s untimely death at the age of 52 in March 2022.
Justin Theroux (2019)
Liz was rumoured to have had a brief fling with actor Justin Theroux in 2019.
However, the rumors were never confirmed by either party.
In fact, Liz even told Us Magazine: “We did a job together, and he’s a very nice chap, but [the rumours are] definitely not true.”
Damian’s support
Last May, the same month Billy filed for divorce from Firerose, Damian revealed that his mum was “seeing someone”.
But he warned: “We’re both quite private.
“I’ve seen first-hand how devastating relationships in the public eye can become.”
Friends close to the mother and son tell us the youngster was instantly impressed with Billy and spotted their chemistry.
“Damian has met Billy and is a really big fan of his. They hit it off when they hung out on set,” the pal told us.
“All he wants is for his mum to be happy and he saw their spark straight away and is delighted they are now giving it a go.”
Damian was born in 2002, following Liz’s year-long romance with billionaire businessman Steve Bing, who died from suicide in 2020.
