Billy Ray Cyrus and Elizabeth Hurley are reportedly engaged after more than a year of dating. The news emerged on October 16 following reports about a diamond ring worn by Hurley and an Instagram post in which Cyrus made a reference to a ring.

Hurley, 61, shared two mirror selfies on Instagram on October 12 from the set of The ‘Burbs. Wearing a white robe, the actress posed with a large diamond ring on her left ring finger. She captioned the photographs, “Day 1 on set #TheBurbs.” The ring was partly obscured in the first image but clearly visible in the second.

The photographs prompted speculation about whether Hurley was engaged to Cyrus, 65. A source quoted in the initial coverage dismissed the possibility that the ring was a prop for her television role, saying, “She’s filming ‘The ‘Burbs’; I hardly think this ring is a prop.”

On October 15, Cyrus shared an Instagram post about his music and an upcoming performance with NASCAR in Phoenix. He mentioned that his video for Party’s in the Back, featuring Deltona, had surpassed half a million views in a few days. He also discussed an upcoming 20th-anniversary special for I Want My Mullet Back and a John tribute track, Storm Windows.

Cyrus ended the post with the words, “Kinda has a ring to it,” while Mark Collie’s Something With a Ring to It played in the background. Hurley’s son, Damian, responded with a celebratory emoji.

The engagement was subsequently reported by several entertainment publications, although neither Cyrus nor Hurley had publicly announced it in the coverage reviewed. No details about a proposal or wedding date have been disclosed.

The couple first met in 2022 while filming the holiday comedy Christmas in Paradise on the Caribbean island of Nevis. Their relationship became public on Easter Sunday in April 2025, when they shared a photograph together on Instagram. The following month, they made their red-carpet debut as a couple at an event in Rome, Italy.

Cyrus later revealed that Hurley had reached out to him during a difficult period in his personal life. Speaking on Apple Music Country’s The Ty Bentli Show in April 2025, he recalled receiving a message from the actress offering her support.

“I didn’t even know the number, and it’s like, ‘Hey, it looks like life might be a little bit tough and just wanted you to know I’m in your corner. You got a friend in your corner,’” he said.

Hurley, known for her roles in Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery and Bedazzled, has also spoken about the similarities between them. During an appearance on the SheerLuxe podcast in October 2026, she joked about their matching hairstyles.

“We have the same hair. Identical hair. Apart from his beard, we’re actually like twins,” she said.

The actress has also discussed their shared preference for country living. In May 2025, she spoke about the similarities between Cyrus’s farm in Tennessee and her own property in Gloucestershire, England.

“Funnily enough, [Billy’s] farm in Tennessee is very similar to my farm here in Gloucestershire, so in a way it kind of feels normal,” she said.

In June 2025, Hurley told People that they enjoyed watching birds of prey, lighting bonfires and spending time outdoors. She also described using power tools in the garden while Cyrus played guitar beneath a tree.

“We obsessively watch birds of prey and light lots of bonfires,” she said. “It’s bliss.”

If the reported engagement leads to marriage, it would be Cyrus’s fourth and Hurley’s second. Cyrus married Cindy Smith in 1986, and they divorced in 1991. He married Tish Cyrus in 1993, and their divorce was finalised in 2023. He subsequently married Australian singer Firerose in October 2023. Their marriage ended in 2024 following allegations of abuse made by Firerose, which Cyrus denied.

Cyrus has six children, including singer Miley Cyrus. He shares five children with Tish: Miley, Noah, Braison, Brandi and Trace. He also has a son, Christopher, with former partner Kristin Luckey.

Hurley was in a long-term relationship with actor Hugh Grant from 1987 to 2000. She later had her son, Damian, with the late film producer Steve Bing. In 2007, she married Indian businessman Arun Nayar; their divorce was finalised in 2011. She subsequently became engaged to Australian cricketer Shane Warne in 2011, but they separated in 2013 without marrying.

Neither Cyrus nor Hurley had publicly confirmed the engagement in the reports reviewed, and no wedding date has been announced.

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ head injury has been linked to a fight with fellow inmate Christopher “Dudus” Coke, a convicted Jamaican drug lord. This happened at the federal prison where the rapper is serving his sentence in New Jersey.

The confrontation reportedly followed increased tension among inmates over allegations of special treatment for Combs.

Combs, 56, was taken to a hospital on Saturday, October 10, after being injured at the Federal Correctional Institution in Fort Dix. The injury was not life-threatening, and he returned to prison that day..

The confrontation reportedly followed allegations about Combs’ living conditions inside Fort Dix, including claims that he had access to prohibited items such as a cellphone and alcohol, while other inmates assisted him with cooking and cleaning.

These allegations prompted scrutiny of his prison arrangements. Combs was subsequently placed in the Special Housing Unit, separate from other inmates.

Prison officials conducted searches and confiscated prohibited items, fuelling tensions among inmates. The alleged confrontation between Coke and Combs was reportedly connected to the fallout.

Coke led the Shower Posse, a criminal organisation involved in drug trafficking. He was arrested in Jamaica and extradited to the United States in 2010.

Coke pleaded guilty to commit assault with a dangerous weapon in aid of racketeering. He was sentenced to 23 years in prison in 2012.

Both Coke and Combs were reportedly placed in restrictive housing following the alleged confrontation. However, prison officials have not publicly confirmed those details.

Following reports of Combs’ hospital visit, his spokesperson, Juda Engelmayer, said the rapper’s well-being were the immediate concern.

A spokesperson for the Federal Bureau of Prisons declined to discuss Combs’ medical status or conditions of confinement.

Combs is serving a 50-month federal prison sentence after being convicted of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. A jury acquitted him of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking charges.

He has been in custody since his September 2024 arrest. His projected release date is March 2, 2028.
