Shane Warne to tie the knot with Liz Hurley
Elizabeth Hurley - Shane WarneShane Warne is said to have proposed Elizabeth Hurley as they holidayed on a friend’s luxury yacht in Spain. Sources have revealed that there will be wedding bells in Australia before the end of the year. Liz Hurley (46) has allegedly told pals: “He’s definitely the one. I didn’t know I’d ever feel this way about anyone.” Shane (41) got down on one knee to propose to the British beauty, and then toasted the news with billionaire boat owner James Packer, his long-term friend, off Marbella. “The boat was moored in Marbella and the Packers were on board along with about 15 people, just close friends, no-one famous,” said a source. “Shane and Liz flew in for a few days and looked so in love during their time. “It was just a beautiful moment when he proposed. Really romantic and she said yes. There was no hesitation.”

Liz and Shane’s undercover love came to light in December when they were caught kissing outside a London hotel. She later admitted on Twitter that she had split from textiles tycoon Arun Nayar months before.

“Liz didn’t think she’d want to move on from Arun so quickly but she’s smitten with Shane,” the source added.

Liz Hurley still close to Hugh Grant
Elizabeth HurleyActress and model Elizabeth Hurley has claimed she still regards ex-flame Hugh Grant as one of her family and she might end up living with him ultimately.The 45-year-old beauty, who dated the ‘Noting Hill’ star for 13 years until 2000, said though they quarrel all the time, she loves nothing more than spending time with Grant."Hugh and I met in 1987 on the set on a movie in Madrid and have been best friend ever since. I completely consider him one of my family and love spending time with him, even though we annoy each other at times."We rarely get through a day without fighting, but we always end up laughing," said Hurley, who is in the process of divorcing husband Arun Nayar.

Although Hurley thinks the idea of her ever being romantically involved with Grant again is "preposterous", she imagines they could end up living like a married couple."It makes us laugh as the idea is sort of preposterous. We’ve often said though, if all else fails, we’ll end up living together again."

The pair are so close the 50-year-old actor is even godfather to Hurley’s son Damian and has a close relationship to the nine-year-old boy."Damian adores his godfather and Hugh is great with him."

Liz Hurley to live with ex Hugh Grant
Elizabeth HurleyElizabeth Hurley has revealed that she will move in to live with ex Hugh Grant as friends if she can’t find love again. "If all else fails, we’ll end up living together like Darby and Joan," said Hurley. The couple ended their 13-year relationship in 2000 but has stayed remarkably close friends. "We are currently taking cooking, Italian and guitar lessons and argue ferociously over who is more ahead in cooking, slightly less cack-handed at the guitar but grudgingly agree his Italian is a whisper better," said Hurley. "We rarely get through a day without fighting, but we always end up laughing," she said. And while she admitted they may annoy each other at times, "I consider him one of my family." Grant is even godfather to Hurley’s son Damien with American producer Steve Bing. "Damian adores his godfather and Hugh is great with him," the actress said. She, however, said any plans for a romantic reunion were strictly out of the question and called the idea "preposterous."

Liz Hurley still enjoys Arun Nayar’s company
Elizabeth HurleyShe filed for divorce citing his "unreasonable behaviour" but Elizabeth Hurley has said that she is still friends with her estranged husband Arun Nayar and spends a lot of time with him. The actress-and-model, who filed for divorce from the Indian textile heir earlier this month after four years of marriage, insisted their separation doesn’t mean they are on bad terms with one another. "Arun and I decided to separate last October. We still get on really well though, and spend lots of time together," said Hurley. The 45-year-old beauty’s nine-year-old son Damian, her child with former lover Steve Bing, is coping well with the split and has managed to stay close to Nayar. "Arun plays a major role in my son Damian’s life and is taking him to India for a week in the Easter holidays. Damian has coped with the changes really well. He’s a very loving, well-adjusted little boy and both Arun and I are really proud of him," said Hurley. The ‘Wonder Woman’ star, who reportedly dated Australian cricketer Shane Warne briefly after splitting from Nayar last year, said she is still friends with him. "I’m still very good friends with Shane. He’s a very hands-on dad and his children are adorable," said Hurley.

Elizabeth Hurley criticised for her bikini wax ad
Elizabeth HurleyTV viewers have lashed out at Elizabeth Hurley for mocking environmental issues in a new commercial. The glamorous British actress appears in a multi-million pound ad campaign for US discount firm Groupon, in which she compares the loss of rainforests to a cut-price Brazilian bikini wax. In a tongue-in-cheek ad, which aired in the US during Sunday’s Super Bowl game, the ‘Austin Powers’ star called Brazil’s rainforest ‘one of nature’s most lush ecosystems’. She then added ‘not all deforestation is bad!’ and revealed she saved 50 percent on her Brazilian wax because of a group discount. Angry viewers claimed Hurley’s clip makes light of serious environmental matters.

“I look forward to a Groupon campaign for roadside assistance using Egypt. That’d be droll! These ads are reprehensible,” said a TV critic.

Liz Hurley rules the red carpet in white
Liz Hurley at Barbara Day Charity GalaIt may be considered as the most unflattering colour a woman can wear, but Liz Hurley and Kylie Minogue sizzled when they both went for white on the red carpet on the weekend. Minogue showed off her figure in a stylish corset and hot pants, beneath a daring see-through dress. She was at the 95.8 Capital FM Jingle Bell Ball at London’s O2 Arena, where she performed alongside Nicole Scherzinger, Alexandra Burke and the Black-Eyed Peas. Meanwhile, Hurley appeared rosy in her tight strapless white gown at the Barbara Day Charity Gala in Munich. Recently the 45 year old actress attributed her figure to healthy lifestyle saying, "There’s no short-cut to being slim - you have to watch what you eat. I put myself under extra pressure because I still model my own bikinis."

"You must do some exercise, too. I walk every day with my dogs and try to run - even though I hate running. "And I do stomach and bottom exercises while I wait for the bath to fill," she said.

Elizabeth Hurley stuns all at cancer charity event
Elizabeth HurleyAt the age of 45, Elizabeth Hurley gave many young girls a run for their money when she arrived at the Estee Lauder Breast Cancer awareness event wearing a skin-tight off-the-shoulder pink dress and gold platform heels.

With her artfully tousled hair and perfect make-up, the Austin Powers star looked sexy yet classy.

Hurley was at the event to turn the Empire State Building pink as part of Estee Lauder’s cancer awareness event.

The drive is very important to the spokesmodel, as the issue is close to her heart.

“My maternal grandmother died of breast cancer just before I started working with Evelyn and Estee Lauder and so, as soon as she asked me to help, it seemed like the perfect fit because she was one of the ladies that we really had tried to get past all that because she was scared of her breast cancer. She wouldn’t tell anyone that she had a lump,” said Hurley.

“So that’s really what has inspired us to now really spread the word, so that breast cancer is not a dirty word anymore,” she added.

The new campaign launch will kick-start the upcoming Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which begins on October 3.

What makes Liz Hurley angry?
Elizabeth HurleyElizabeth Hurley has said that she has a short temper and can blow her top in traffic congestion, flight delays and even air fresheners.

While the model-cum-actress has taken it onto her to make peace between former boyfriend Hugh Grant and Matthew Freud, she does not hide the fact that she can also get angry easily.

“It only lasts a few minutes,” said the actress.

She added that her principal irritants include: “Traffic congestion, flight delays, people talking with their mouths full, TV as background noise with no one watching, air fresheners …”

Hurley was less than impressed with Grant for his unseemly brawling with Freud, the PR executive, and now she attempts to broker peace accord between the warring factions.

“Hugh and I have known Matthew for years and we’re all friends. We’re having dinner together soon,” she said.

Self-discipline behind Hurley’s figure
Liz HurleyLiz Hurley believes being self-disciplined is the key to gain the perfect figure.

The actress insists that slimming products found in market do not guarantee a great body.

“If you take people who aren’t in show business or fashion, then probably I am quite high in the self-discipline stakes,” said Hurley.

She added, “I always say, it has to come down to desire. You have to want to get into your small jeans more than you want to eat chocolate biscuits. That’s all it is. It’s no more than that. It’s just a choice.

“When I lived in California I ate it all the time. The fact is, most slimming stuff on the market is horrific. To keep the calories down it has hydrogenated fat and really unpleasant things.

“Or it’s for the hairy-toe brigade. I love the good life, but I don’t want to eat disgusting green seeds the whole time. I want stuff to be fun and nice.”

Liz Hurley says No to London life for son
Elizabeth HurleyElizabeth Hurley no longer wants to stay in London because her young son Damian feels “cooped up” in the city.

The 44 year old British beauty had acquired a sprawling estate in Gloucestershire, England six years ago so she could holiday in the countryside with hubby Arun Nayar and her seven year old son.

Although, Hurley has been living in London for years, she has now made a permanent move to Gloucestershire.

"I bought a farm about six years ago. We used to do London in the week, with my son at school there, and go every weekend but we got very stressed by it and in the end we just thought, ‘It’s so beautiful and Damian’s so much happier down here’”, said the actress.

"He loves the fresh air and running around outside, because he was so cooped up in London, so we made the big decision last Easter and moved down there full time.”

Hurley further added: "It’s a big chance for a city girl, but I love it. It’s where my son’s supposed to be. It’s a little harder for me and my husband but it’s worth it".
