Hurley, in London for a 40th birthday dinner for the KIDS charity at Battersea Power Station, teamed her provocative dress with some nude peep-toe heels and a gold clutch. She was sporting and admirable golden glow, just over a week into spring, and flawless hair and make-up.

Liz Hurley and Shane Warne: True love or what?
Elizabeth HurleyIt’s been some time now, but Elizabeth Hurley and Shane Warne’s ‘very public’ love story doesn’t seem to leave the spotlight or the front pages even for a moment – but some are left wondering – is it true love or just a cheap publicity gimmick? Warne and Hurley have been very vocal about their mutual affection for each other on Twitter, for the rest of the world to see. "That’s what was so extraordinary about it - just how open they were in their tweeting," said Fiona McIntosh, the founding editor of Grazia. McIntosh added that Warne and Hurley seemed to be completely unaffected by with the ongoing phone-tapping scandal – where some stars jealously guard their privacy, these two don’t seem to care at all. "Maybe they were carried away in the first flash of love. That’s what I’m not sure about - if it was a strategy or not,” she said.

Then mid-December saw a complete silence over Twitter but when Hurley got her new parrot Ping-Pong, Warne tweeted, "I’m getting jealous of ping pong! Think it’s time you left ping pong alone for a while & come visit me in Australia."

And when she did, the media world was abuzz with activity yet again. It seemed that what had begun as something quite ambiguous and haphazard was now being formalized as a media strategy.

Surprisingly, Hurley has been very private about her life – whether it was ex boyfriend Hugh Grant’s encounter with Divine Brown or her court case for picture agencies who snapped her, Grant and new husband Arun Nayar while they were on holiday.

"It’s a way of beating journalists at their own game. By tweeting, you’re taking power from the journalist. The biggest bugbear to celebrities are stories which are damaging and possibly false. But this way, you eliminate that,” says publicist Max Clifford.

Sam Delaney - Heat’s editor until last year – gives another reason.

When celebrities reveal intimate details on Twitter, a la Warne and Hurley, you think: ‘This is amazing. We’re getting insights into all the dirty laundry our readers want to know about. Oh, but so are our readers.’

As a result, he says, "you’re left being an amalgam of stuff that is already out there. Rather like The Week magazine, but for celebrity news."

But he argues, saying, “People will always enjoy seeing a story printed bigger, and delivered with humour and a bit of editorial comment.”

But the micro-blogging site seems to have worked wonders for the couple.

Hurley’s Twitter following has almost doubled - from 50,000 in December to over 90,000 now - while the new account she set up last week for her pet Ping Pong has already attracted over 3500 subscribers.

Sadly, her relationship with Warne hasn’t been so successful. ‘Happy Valentine’s Day!’ Hurley tweeted at the end of what turned out to be a disastrous trip to Australia. "Remember, love is like a rollercoaster ride - sometimes it’s exhilarating but sometimes u feel sick and want to get off."

The highly secure club features a sumptuous clubhouse with views of the meticulous grounds and curious bird life.

As well as playing a round of golf, Hurley will be able to enjoy Australian fauna including emus and wallabies in the club’s wildlife sanctuary.

The couple will be relaxing in what the website describes as a ‘convivial, comfortable and relaxed’ atmosphere at the clubhouse, which features ‘sun-drenched flagstone patios" and ‘vine-shaded pergolas’.

“Where is the sexiest place to take Elizabeth for lunch? Suggestions please? Chapel St? Crown? And no - not for spaghetti on toast!!!” Warne had tweeted on Wednesday morning.

He was met with a bevy of responses suggesting inner Melbourne eateries and destinations such as the Dandenong Ranges, and Yarra Valley wineries.

Liz Hurley dumps Shane Warne
Liz HurleyLiz Hurley has apparently dumped Shane Warne after learning that the cricketer had sent sexual text messages to a married Australian woman. An Australian man, Denis Angeleri, claims his wife, Adele, was wooed by Warne with a series of explicit texts. The pair had met when Warne called into her leather goods shop opposite his office at the Shane Warne Foundation in Melbourne. They exchanged numbers and Warne began texting her, becoming progressively more suggestive. Adele grew worried and eventually told her husband, Denis, on December 3. Warne had begged him to keep the matter secret for the sake of his family, however, Warne was "also clearly terrified Liz would discover his double-dealing". "There weren’t that many texts anyway,” said Warne. But a newspapre has said that Warne sent her more than 100 messages, while simultaneously cultivating his relationship with Hurley. It was only a few days after his confrontation with Angeleri that Warne met up with Hurley in London.

Warne, now in Perth commentating on the Third Ashes Test for Channel Nine, hit social networking site Twitter to lament the latest saga. "The journey of life is about riding the ups/downs," a daily quoted him as Tweeting. "We all are childish, immature at times. It’s about how you bounce back when things are tough." On Friday night he tweeted: "4:45 am here in Perth. Not really a wink of sleep. Tossed and turned all night, feeling extremely grumpy."

Hurley also wrote on Twitter to shut down reports she would spend time with Warne in Australia in the coming weeks. And, in a further blow to Warne, she said she had no plans to divorce her estranged husband, Indian textile heir Arun Nayar any time soon.

"Bored now of silly speculations: no one is divorcing anyone yet, no one is fighting over money and I have no plans to go to Australia. Enough!" she wrote.

Liz Hurley - Shane Warne kissing photo
Liz-Hurley-Shane-Warne-Kiss-PhotoBritish model-actress Elizabeth Hurley’s has been caught kissing Australian cricketer Shane Warne on camera and the"passionate fling"has reportedly put her marriage to Indian businessman Arun Nayar on the rocks. The British tabloid News Of The World today published photos of the’Austin Powers’ star kissing and embracing the cricketer, famed for his womanising ways. The paper claims that she had spent two nights with the Australian, 41, in his London hotel suite this week. The report says the pair were also captured on video kissing outside the restaurant Sake No Hana. "While they waited for their coats to be brought to them Hurley pulled Warne towards her into a darkened doorway, cupped his face with her hands and leaned in to lock lips. After releasing from their clinch they gazed into each other’s eyes and smiled adoringly," reads the article.

The 45-year-old swimwear model had wed Indian tycoon Nayar in 2007. They tied the knot in a string of extravagant ceremonies in London and Rajasthan, and the photographs were sold to magazines for millions. But the latest scandal may end the union.

Hurley and Warne were reportedly spotted exchanging more lingering kisses outside the cricketer’s luxury USD 2500-a-night suite at the Bentley Hotel in South Kensington. They were also seen smooching and kissing again during a meal on Thursday at San Lorenzo in Chelsea.

The pair, who first met in July at Goodwood races, have been exchanging flirty Twitter messages for months. At first, the banter was about the fact that they were initially reported as "old friends" after their first meeting.

In a tweet that appears to be a message from her dog, Hurley told Warne, "Sammy sends you a special lick and says he’d like to put his silky head on your shoulder."

A notorious philanderer, Warne split from Simone, the mother of his children Brooke, 13, Jackson, 11 and Summer, 8, after a string of affairs. They divorced in 2007, but got back together in 2009 for a trial reunion. However, it didn’t work out though he still lives with his ex-wife in Melbourne.

Liz Hurley separates from Arun Nayar after Warne affair
Liz Hurley separates from hubbyLiz Hurley and her husband Arun Nayar have separated, the British actress announced Sunday, as a newspaper reported she has been having an affair with Australia cricket great Shane Warne. "Not a great day," Hurley told her followers on social networking site Twitter. "For the record, my husband Arun and I separated a few months ago. "Our close family and friends were aware of this." The 45 years old, Hurley, who has an eight-year-old son, Damian, married Indian businessman Arun Nayar three years ago. Britain’s News of the World tabloid reported Sunday that Hurley had spent two nights with the great bowling ace, 41 years old, Warne in his London hotel suite last week. She had been flirting with him for months via Twitter, it said.

Divorced former leg-spin bowler Warne arrived in Britain on Wednesday to shoot interviews for his new television show, Warnie, the newspaper said. Previous affairs cost Warne not only his marriage but the vice-captaincy of the Australia Test side in 2000 and the opportunity to become his country’s one-day captain two years later.

Hurley and Nayar married in a civil ceremony at Sudeley Castle in Winchcombe, Gloucestershire, south-west England in 2007 and held a blessing and party at the castle the following night. They then had traditional Indian wedding celebrations at the Mehrangarh fort in Jodhpur.

Hurley and actor Hugh Grant were one of Britain’s leading celebrity couples in the 1990s before they split after his arrest in 1995 for consorting with a Hollywood prostitute. Also a model, Hurley was well-known for her daring choice of clothes at various red-carpet events and in 1994 wore a Versace dress held together by safety pins.

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.

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.

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.

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".
