She’s been credited with jazzing up his look and encouraging him to lose weight, but Liz Hurley loved Shane Warne just the way he came.

In an interview with the UK’s Grazia magazine, the actress and model revealed how she was instantly attracted to the former Australian spin bowler. She didn’t mention how she felt about his womanising past.

The biggest hurdle in their relationship was the fact they were 23 hours apart, one in Australia and the other in the United Kingdom, she revealed.

“It’s a challenge. We’ll see what happens,” she said. “We come from very different worlds so I see that’s fascinating, if not odd, to many.

“But it’s not often you meet people you instantly feel comfortable with, and when you find that — even if there are vast differences and background and experiences — it’s worth following through.

“When you recognise you have a lot in common with someone, it’s nice to explore.”
