“She’s ludicrously supportive of me”: Liz Hurley and son Damian’s best moments as she celebrates turning 60

From being papped with a baby Damian to attending events with him and new partner, Billy Ray Cyrus

By

There are few parent-child duos spotted as frequently on the red carpet together as Elizabeth Hurley and her now 23-year-old son, Damian. From childhood premieres of animated films, to walking the Vanity Fair red carpet, the pair are clearly close and often co-ordinate their looks for big events. And, with Damian following in his mother's footsteps into the movie business, they've even worked together on a film project.

Damian directed Strictly Confidential which his mother starred in and also creative produced. Speaking about Elizabeth during the project to Film Hounds, Damian said he had a 'wonderful experience working with my mum' and stressed that 'she's been so ludicrously supportive of me for my whole childhood.'

To celebrate Elizabeth's 60th birthday, we take a look back on the mother and son's best moments from across the years, from Damian's earliest papped outings as a baby, to attending awards events with his mum and her new partner, Billy Ray Cyrus.
