‘From these images, it shows they aren’t afraid to be close with each other, as they are displaying plenty of tactile behaviour by wrapping their arms around each other and smiling for the camera.
‘They both look very comfortable and in love. While it is early days in their relationship, they look very in sync and want to connect on a deeper level.’
He added that the duo look happy and naturally at ease to be pH๏τographed together, which is a ‘good sign and shows they’re embracing these moments together’.
Darren quipped: ‘We see them matching their body language as neither one is distancing themselves. They come across as reciprocating the other, telling us they’re on the same page emotionally, and they’re able to trust each other.’
He added: ‘Billy appears to be very protective of Liz in these pictures from the way he is holding her. This tells us he will be leading the way in this dynamic between the two of them.
‘Looking at Liz’s responses through her eye contact and smiles, it’s clear she’s happy to be in his company.’
The new pictures were taken during a weekend at Billy Ray’s Tennessee home, where the couple spent time together with Elizabeth’s son Damian.
The country music star couldn’t keep his hands off Elizabeth as he wrapped his arms around her in the affectionate sH๏τ.

MailOnline contacted Elizabeth’s reps for comment.

This would not be Elizabeth’s first time down the aisle, after wedding multimillionaire Arun Nayar in 2007, with their two lavish ceremonies spanned two continents, with a civil service in an English castle and then a traditional Hindu ceremony in India.
The actress and the textile heir eventually divorced in 2011, but have remained good friends ever since, often appearing at public events together.
During a previous interview with the Daily Mail’s YOU magazine in 2018, Liz said: ‘My husband and I had the most amicable divorce in the world and my lawyer said it was the cheapest case she’d ever handled because neither of us wanted anything.’
It comes after Billy Ray opened up about his new relationship with Elizabeth for the first time while appearing on Apple Music Country’s The Ty Bentli Show.
Less than a week after hard launching his romance with the Austin Powers actress he revealed how he found love again following his divorce with Firerose last year.
While navigating a difficult period in his life, the Achy Breaky Heart crooner recalled receiving an unexpected text message from his former Christmas in Paradise.
‘I felt like, ‘Wow, can life get any harder? Can it get any tougher?’ For me, at a certain point it was like, you can’t get knocked down any flatter than laying on your back when life is kicking you,’ he said. ‘And in this moment… a friend reached out.’
According to Cyrus, Hurley’s message read something along the lines of: ‘Hey, it looks like life might be a little bit tough and just wanted you to know I’m in your corner; you’ve got a friend in your corner.’
Upon getting her text, the father-of-five admitted he ‘didn’t even know the number.’

‘So, I text back, I go, “Who is this?” And it’s like, “Elizabeth Hurley.” Of all the people to reach out to me in that second that maybe I needed most… this friend who made me laugh,’ he said.
Although they hadn’t spoken in ‘two years’ shortly after wrapping their 2022 holiday film, Cyrus instantly remembered ‘there was a chemistry’ between them on set during their ‘very few scenes together.’
‘We just laughed, and it was at a time I wasn’t laughing a lot,’ he noted. ‘The oddest part was first, how much we laughed. Second, I figured we were so different but in some very strange way we had way more in common than we had different.’
Christmas in Paradise was sH๏τ in the Caribbean, not long after he separated from ex-wife Tish in April 2022 after 28 years of marriage.
Cyrus proceeded to describe Hurley as a ‘a great human being’ and insisted he would have been satisfied just being friends.
‘She’s so impressively brilliant. She reminds me a lot of Dolly Parton. She’s a very smart businesswoman,’ he gushed. ‘If you can laugh together, you can make it through everything.’
Cyrus also teased that there would be more pH๏τos of them coming since taking their relationship public on Easter with a sweet pH๏τo of him giving her a kiss on the cheek.
‘There will be one coming where she’s kissing me because people have been saying, “Why’s he always kissing her?” Unfortunately when I see her, when she puts her cheek out there, I don’t know what happens, I just kiss it,’ he mused.
The singer raved that their relationship has ‘been beautiful.’

Cyrus also said he loves Hurley’s son, Damian, 23, ‘a lot.’
‘It’s great that God brought them into my life when he did. It’s just a good thing. It’s been a long time since I’ve been this happy,’ he said of his new relationship.
A source told Us Weekly that the pair ‘bonded over life experiences’ as they’ve ‘both been through a lot in life’ adding that the relationship is ‘very recent.’
‘They really understand each other and Liz is a very compᴀssionate person, which Billy Ray adores,’ the insider added.
The actress and model has been spending time with Cyrus at his Nashville farm, as they both enjoy ‘the low-key, nature-loving lifestyle.’
The pair have ‘just been enjoying life together and wanted to make it public. They have nothing to hide and are very happy.’
Elizabeth previously confessed that ‘the opportunity to work with Billy Ray’ was one of the main reasons she sH๏τ the Lionsgate sequel to the 2021 flick Father Christmas is Back opposite onscreen dad Kelsey Grammer (who’s only 11 years older than her).
‘I’ve long been a fan of [Cyrus],’ Hurley gushed to MovieWeb in 2022.
‘My son [Damian] was the age where he used to watch Hannah Montana all the time, so of course, I used to watch it with him. I knew Billy Ray really well from that, and of course, some of his music. That was a big plus.’
Indeed, the two-time Grammy winner portrayed widowed single father Robby Ray Stewart in the Disney Channel series from 2006-2011 opposite his real-life estranged daughter Miley Cyrus.
Their relationship shocked fans, coming just months after Billy’s whirlwind divorce from singer Firerose in August, following a dramatic break-up that played out both publicly and privately.
However, new reports claim that it was Billy and Firerose’s split that laid the foundation for his romance with Liz, with the singer said to have reached out to the model for help during the ‘really hard time’.
