Elizabeth Hurley has revealed she instantly felt she would get along with Miley Cyrus, opening up about the warm bond she shares with the singer as her romance with Miley's father, Billy Ray Cyrus, continues to blossom.
Speaking on SiriusXM's Andy Cohen Live, Hurley said the Flowers singer had been on her radar years before the country music star entered her life.
“She’s adorable,” the Bedazzled star told Cohen, 58.
“I’ve been lucky to meet some of his kids and they seem fabulous,” Hurley said of the father of six moments before.
The conversation turned to Hurley's relationship with the Cyrus family, with Cohen asking whether she had known Miley before dating Billy Ray.
“No, I’d never met her, but my son used to love Hannah Montana, so he loved Father Montana,” she said of the sitcom, which debuted on Disney in 2006 and ran for four seasons.
Hurley went on to say, “He loved Miley too, so I always knew who she was, and when he was a young teen, he used to love all her music.”
She confessed, “I used to have to watch her music videos, like ‘Wrecking Ball,’ a zillion times with him, so we were very familiar with who she was, and I knew I was going to like her and I do like her.”
