Elizabeth Hurley's Biography
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 Basingstoke, England, in June 1965. Her father, Roy, served in the military, and her mother, Angela, taught at Kempshott Primary School, a suburb of Basingstoke. Liz grew up with 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 fell in love with ballet and took classes for two years before losing interest. "I showed promise, but then they were disappointed in me, and besides, most of the boys there were gay," she recalled.


After graduating in 1983, she moved to London and enrolled in the London Studio Centre, a dance and performing arts school. But by 1986, she got kicked out for skipping classes. She'd taken off for a vacation to Greece without telling her teachers. When she got back, she was immediately called into the director's office.
I thought it would be fun living in London but getting a job was not easy and all the more difficult because of the nose-ring and the hair. I recognised that it was time to change. So, I did. My Mum was very happy about that and probably, I was too really.
Acting Career
She made her film debut in the musical "Aria," a British-American collaboration in 1987. In one of the film's ten segments ("Die tote Stadt"), she played Marietta. Her first significant project was the mini-series "Christabel" (1988), which tells the story of a young Englishwoman who marries a German lawyer and lives happily in Germany until the Nazis come to power.

Elizabeth Hurley's Personal Life
Elizabeth Hurley's first major relationship was with Hugh Grant. They were together for thirteen years.
After splitting from Grant, Liz started dating millionaire Steve Bing. Soon after they broke up, she found out she was pregnant. Bing, who'd always been jealous of Hurley's bond with Grant, thought Grant was the father. Things got even messier when Hurley made her ex the child's godfather. Bing denied he was the father, but a DNA test eventually proved otherwise.Hugh GrantWe're like brother and sister. I think it's partly because we went from zero to somewhere together, and we went through terrible years at the beginning when neither of us had any work, living in a tiny flat. It was quite bonding

In 2007, the actress married Indian politician Arun Nayar, whom she'd been dating since 2003. In 2011, Hurley was photographed with Australian cricket star Shane Warne, sparking cheating rumors. She later claimed her marriage to Nayar had been over for ages, and in October 2011, she got engaged to Warne—though they never actually tied the knot.
