Liz Hurley is reuniting with her ‘beloved’ co-star of Bedazzled. Liz starred in the movie Bedazzled in 2000. In the film, she played the role of the Devil. Now she is reuniting with co-star Brendan Fraser, taking to Instagram to show the ‘bliss’ moment.

Captioning the photo of the pair cosying up to each other and looking cheerful, Liz said: Reunited! 25 years on, my beloved co-star of Bedazzled – the heavenly Brendan Fraser – and I are finally back on screen together. Bliss. Breaking Bear is a deranged new animated show coming next year on @tubi …”

Brendan made his long-awaited movie comeback in 2023’s The Whale, winning an Academy Award for his leading role. The actor also hosted the 96th annual Oscar Awards last year.

But it was all so different for a long time, as Brendan, now 56, was allegedly shunned for opening up on past abuse claims. In the late 1990s and early noughties, Brendan was a mainstay on the big screen, with key roles in the likes of The Mummy and George of the Jungle. However, he later found himself “blacklisted” in the industry, claiming it was due to his claims he had been the victim of sexual abuse in the industry.

In 2018, Brendan spoke to GQ and said his career “withered on a vine” after the alleged groping in 2003 by a big figure in the industry. He explained how the horrible situation had left him “miserable”, “depressed” and somewhat of a “reclusive”.

Speaking of the incident with the publication at the time, Brendan said: “His left hand reaches around, grabs my a** cheek, and one of his fingers touches me in the taint. And he starts moving it around. I felt ill. I felt like a little kid. I felt like there was a ball in my throat. I thought I was going to cry… In my mind, at least, something had been taken away from me.”

Brendan later revealed he had received a written apology regarding the incident, but claimed he found himself shut out from the HFPA and the Golden Globes awards which had him thinking he had been blacklisted.

However, last year marked his impressive comeback, and he was visibly emotional during his acceptance speech. As he held his award, he joked: “So this is what the multiverse looks like!”

Brendan went on to say: “I thank the academy for this honour… Darren Aronofsky for throwing me a creative lifeline and hauling me aboard the good ship The Whale,” before he later added: “I started in this business 30 years ago…there was a facility that that I didn’t appreciate at the time until it stopped.

Liz also took to Instagram recently over Easter to showcase her budding romance with country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, 63. Now, pals of the Against the Wild actress are saying wedding bells might be heard in the near future. It comes after the surprising match shared yet more images to social media. In the latest Instagram post, the Achy Breaky Heart singer wrapped his arms around his new girlfriend as they posed by a tree for the affectionate shot.

She opted for an airy white lace blouse for the occasion while casually rocking blue jeans and aviator-style sunglasses. Billy Ray flashed a grin as he wore a purple plaid shirt rolled up to the elbows to show off his body art.

Liz was also seen smiling in a vehicle as she sat next to a dog while Billy Ray drove them on the greens. Liz captioned the upload: “Tennessee weekend,” with a love heart emoji, while Heidi Klum was among the many followers sharing their delight at the snaps.

The pair, who first met while filming Christmas In Paradise in 2022, are said to have reconnected last year. It comes as Liz reportedly became a surprising shoulder for him to cry on following the collapse of his third marriage.

However, pals suggest their pair is going from strength to strength, and Liz could soon be the singer’s fourth wife. Speaking to The Sun, a source said: “Everyone is saying he could be the one, so don’t be surprised if she marries again.”

They added: “Everyone is saying Billy and Liz are worlds apart, but actually they are very similar. They have a lot in common and have the same interests.”
