Still good friends, it was no shock that Grant was on hand to comfort Hurley. The two spent a few hours at Hurley’s west London home on Wednesday.
Hurley and Grant dated for eight years before Hugh had a run-in with the law in Los Angeles. The relationship ended two years later.
It has been a tough week for the glamorous supermodel who has faced a barrage of criticism from the unforgiving British press. She is no doubt thankful for the support from the Love Actually star.
Hurley announced via Twitter this week that she had split from husband, Indian tycoon Arun Nayar. “For the record, my husband Arun & I separated a few months ago. Our close family & friends were aware of this.”

Warne also released a statement to clarify his relationship status with Simone Callahan. The couple have been on-again-off-again since their divorce in 2005 and then reconciliation. “Sadly and unfortunately, Simone and I split up a while ago, our close friends and family were informed at that time. It is a private matter so we did not make it public. We remain friends and will continue to be good parents.”
There are rumours circulating that Liz will join Shane in Sydney for New Year’s Eve celebrations.
