Elizabeth Hurley’s red-hot romance with Billy Ray Cyrus is starting to cool off, a source tells the National Enquirer.
“Liz hasn’t dumped Billy Ray,” says the source. “She’s just made it clear she needs some time to herself and doesn’t want to be joined at the hip 24/7 or cooped up at his Tennessee ranch, just the two of them.”
As the Enquirer previously reported, the British actress, 60, has grown frustrated with the 64-year-old country music star’s “hermit-like” lifestyle.
“Billy Ray is a massive recluse at heart,” the source continues. “He doesn’t mix well with others and takes a lot of time to warm up to people. He can put a lot of folks off with his brash and introverted attitude too, which has been a factor since he started dating Liz.”

Opposites do attract, but they can also repel.
Hurley has “always been the ultimate social butterfly and while she’s still tolerating Billy Ray and his idiosyncrasies, it’s all gotten a little stale and flat of late,” says Enquirer’s source. “She’s looking to stick around London with [her 23-year-old son] Damian and hang out with her old friends.”
It hasn’t gone down well with the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer.
“He’s a jealous, suspicious guy at the best of times and now he’s peppering her with questions and turning her off by being insecure and over-intense,” reveals the source. “As of now, they’re still together but this new twist doesn’t bode well for their long-term chances, put it that way.”
