Posting on Instagram, Elizabeth Hurley, 61, expressed her gratitude to Collins, 93, for hosting their holiday at her stunning five-bedroom pied-à-terre in the South of France. “Thank you to the magnificent @joancollinsdbe and Percy for the most enchanting holiday in St Tropez,” the actress wrote, accompanied by a heart emoji. The pair’s friendship dates back to their time working together on the E! television series *The Royals*, which aired from 2015 to 2018.
Accompanying her heartfelt message, Hurley shared a selection of photographs capturing the joyful moments from their trip. One of the standout images features her on a bench flanked by her boyfriend, country music star Billy Ray Cyrus, 64, and Collins. Standing proudly behind them is Elizabeth’s 24-year-old son, Damian. The collection also includes playful images of Hurley and Collins having fun in the swimming pool, showcasing a spirited atmosphere.
Hurley’s vacation snaps not only celebrated their friendship but also featured various items from her swimwear collection, Elizabeth Hurley Beach. The glamorous representation of the getaway effectively highlights the luxurious and enjoyable lifestyle of these prominent public figures.
The holiday comes more than a year after Hurley and Cyrus made their relationship public, a moment marked on Easter Sunday 2025. In an Instagram post from April 20, the couple shared a tender moment as Cyrus planted a kiss on Hurley’s cheek, confirming their romance to their fans.
In an exclusive interview with *PEOPLE* in June, the couple further elaborated on their relationship, revealing that they split their time between Cyrus’s farm in Tennessee and Hurley’s country residence in England, along with brief visits to Nashville and London. Hurley expressed their love for the countryside, where she often engages in gardening while Cyrus enjoys his music in nature. “It’s bliss,” she said, underlining the tranquillity they find in rural living.
Additionally, Hurley shared her delight in seeing her son, Damian, bond with Cyrus. She reflected on the joy of becoming acquainted with Cyrus’s children as well, noting that family ties have been an important aspect of their lives. This blending of families seems to enrich their relationship further, with shared experiences contributing to their happiness.
For context, Billy Ray Cyrus had been previously married to Tish Cyrus for 28 years before their separation in April 2022. They have five children together—Miley, Noah, Brandi, Trace, and Braison. Hurley, on the other hand, was previously married to Arun Nayar from 2007 until their divorce in 2011, and she has maintained amicable relationships with her ex-partners, including actor Hugh Grant, who is the godfather to her son Damian.
As Hurley continues to relish life, her friendship with Collins remains a treasured part of her journey. With their long-standing camaraderie and the joys of new love, this holiday in Saint-Tropez seems to have added yet another chapter to their illustrious lives.
Fans of both Hurley and Collins can look forward to more delightful glimpses into their lives through social media, as the duo shares lasting moments filled with friendship, laughter, and love, all set against the stunning backdrop of the French Riviera.
