Not every grandmother becomes a social media sensation for her beachside fashion choices, but Angela Mary Hurley isn’t your average grandma.
At 85 years old, she just reminded the world that confidence, glamour, and a sense of fun don’t have an expiration date.
Thanks to her daughter, the ever-glamorous Elizabeth Hurley, Angela has stepped into the spotlight—and fans can’t stop talking about her.
Striking a Pose at 85
Earlier this week, Angela and Elizabeth were spotted looking effortlessly chic in matching leopard-print swimsuits from Elizabeth’s beachwear collection.
The duo posed poolside, both draped in elegant white cover-ups that elevated their twinning moment to something right out of a fashion campaign.
Angela’s choice of a plunging one-piece swimsuit stunned fans, who were quick to praise her timeless figure and radiant energy.
A Life Transformed by Glamour
While Angela’s stylish look might seem straight out of a celebrity playbook, her journey to this glamorous life is rooted in far humbler beginnings.
Before becoming an internet favorite, Angela worked as a schoolteacher at Kempshott Junior School in Basingstoke.
She was also married to Roy Leonard Hurley, a major in the Royal Army Educational Corps, with whom she had three children—Elizabeth, Kate, and Charlie.
While Elizabeth went on to find fame, her siblings prefer to stay out of the public eye.
Moving In and Making Memories
During the lockdown in 2020, Angela moved into Elizabeth’s lavish £6 million countryside estate in Herefordshire.
The 13-bedroom mansion, which Elizabeth once shared with former fiancé Shane Warne, became a haven for the family. Angela celebrated her 80th birthday there, surrounded by loved ones and rolling hills.
Elizabeth spoke fondly at the time, telling The Mirror how much she appreciated having her mother and sister nearby, even if it meant being far from her usual social circle.
Still Living the Dream Together
By all accounts, Angela has remained at the Herefordshire home ever since, continuing to enjoy quality time with her daughter and grandson, Damian.
The family’s strong bond is often on display through their social media posts, whether it’s a shared laugh, a scenic walk, or a fashionable beach shoot.
Elizabeth frequently celebrates her mum online, and their joint photos always draw admiration.
The Internet Reacts to Their Beauty
Once Elizabeth shared their twinning swimsuit snap, fans flooded her comment section with admiration—and disbelief.
Most couldn’t get over how youthful Angela looked, with many saying that Elizabeth clearly inherited her beauty from her mum.
Comments poured in:
“LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER. Two absolute beauties!”
“Now I see where you get your beauty!”
“You won the good genes lottery for sure.”
It was clear: Angela wasn’t just turning 85—she was turning heads.
Damian’s Sweet Tribute to His Grandmother
Elizabeth’s son, Damian, 23, also joined in celebrating Angela’s milestone.
He posted a touching message on social media alongside pictures from her birthday dinner, calling Angela his “partner in crime since birth.”
His heartfelt tribute showed just how much she means to their tight-knit family.
Romance and Country Life
And if life couldn’t be more exciting at Elizabeth’s countryside estate, there’s also a new romance blossoming.
Elizabeth and country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, 63, recently went public with their relationship and are making the most of the British summer together.
The couple has been sharing adorable moments from their time at the estate, including a recent discovery of a tortoise during one of their strolls.
What’s Next?
Angela may have just turned 85, but there’s no slowing her down.
With a supportive daughter, a doting grandson, and a new chapter filled with laughter, style, and family adventures, she’s living proof that age is just a number.
As for Elizabeth and Billy Ray, their love story is still unfolding under the Herefordshire skies—and the world seems happy to watch.
