Elizabeth Hurley is a British actress and model, best known for her role as the Devil in "Bedazzled" and as Queen Helena Henstridge in the series "The Royals."
Childhood and Early Life
The future screen star and magazine cover model was born in the English town of Basingstoke in June 1965. Her father, Roy, served in the military, and her mother, Angela, taught at Kempshott Primary School, a suburb of Basingstoke. Besides Liz, the family raised her older sister Kate and younger brother Michael.
Liz attended Kempshott Primary School, where her mother taught, then moved to Harriet Costello School. At 12, she developed a passion for ballet and attended classes for two years, but eventually grew tired of it, stating, "I showed promise, but then they were disappointed in me, and besides, most of the boys there were gay."
Upon completing her school in 1983, she moved to London and enrolled in the London Studio Centre, a dance and performing arts school. However, by 1986, she was expelled for absenteeism. Without notifying her teachers, she took a vacation to Greece. Upon her return, she was promptly called into the director's office.
