Bleary-eyed Damian Hurley turns heads in a low-cut leopard print shirt and leather trousers after partying with pals at LFW bash

Bleary-eyed Damian Hurley turned heads as he was spotted leaving the Perfect Magazine’s London Fashion Week party with pals on Sunday.

The actor and model, 22, was dressed to impress for the bash in a daringly low-cut leopard print shirt and leather trousers. 

Damian – the son of Elizabeth Hurley and Steve Bing – completed the ensemble with a pair of leather boots and faux fur jacket.

He wore his glossy brunette tresses loose and accessorised with a bejewelled cross pendant necklace and appeared in great spirits as he headed home.  

Other guests to attend the event included singer Paloma Faith, 43, as well as actress Bel Powley and her husband Douglas Booth, both 32. 

Last month Damian shared an album of cosy snaps with a female pal who he called his ‘lover’.

He posted on his Instagram to mark the mystery woman’s birthday saying: ‘thank God for you’ in the caption but did not tag the woman or confirm if it was a romantic relationship or not.

One snap showed them at an event for his film Strictly Confidential, while another saw them cuddling up at a gallery. 

He penned in the caption: ‘my lover’s day of birth – thank God for you Xx.’

Many fans questioned who the gorgeous woman was as they penned in the comments: ‘Lover????? It’s a new girlfriend???’

Another added: ‘I am so happy for you both!’

Elizabeth has been helping her son Damian – her only child from a former relationship with American businessman Steve – forge his own path as a budding film director. 

His debut feature Strictly Confidential – both written and directed by the 22-year old – was released to lukewarm reviews in 2023. 

Much of the criticism revolved around Hurley herself, whose starring role in the film includes a raunchy lesbian sex scene with a woman 30-years her junior – filmed by her son. 

‘It’s quite interesting because I’m a single mother and he’s a single child, so we, by default, spend a huge amount of time together,’ she explained last month. 

‘When he was really young, he became fascinated with my business. He started doing stills and making mini movie when he was nine or ten. I gave him a camcorder, and he made me star in all his films. 

‘I was always playing the Evil Queen. My mum was in them, Hugh was in them, my ex-husband, everybody had to be in his movies, as he progressed through baby movies into more grown up features. 

‘He’s actually been directing me for ten years anyway, so nothing really changed. I was just used to it’ 

Liz became a household name overnight when she arrived arm-in-arm with Hugh Grant in a Versace gown to the Four Weddings and a Funeral premiere.

And she credits their relationship for helping her navigate a pivotal time in her life.

However the star recently admitted they no longer see each other – despite remaining firm friends following their amicable separation in 2000.

Appearing at the Bazaar At Work summit in London last month, she said: ‘I was with my ex, Hugh Grant, so it happened to both of us at the same time. 

‘Like me, he’d also worked a lot, and thought he was doing pretty well, until Four Weddings and a Funeral came out and suddenly it was completely different – he was a phenomenon. 

‘The film was a massive success, and everything changed. But there was two of us and I think that massively helped. When you’re suddenly thrust into the spotlight, your lives aren’t set up for it.’

She added: ‘You don’t have any protection. It was alarming. The press was much ruder back in the 90s and 2000s than it is now. I truly believe that people aren’t allowed to be as rude as they were then.

‘[I] think it gives you a bond when you sort of go to the trenches with someone. I mean, he’s married with five children. I hardly ever see him, but he’s still very close to my heart.’ 

Reflecting on her iconic dress – borrowed as a last minute favour from Dean Aslett, then Head of Womenswear and Atelier at Versace – Hurley admits she was stunned by the attention it received. 

‘It was very strange,’ she recalled. ‘I’d been working for a few years, and in my mind, I thought I was quite famous – I had been in a few things. 

‘To my family, I was a success; but I had no idea what it actually meant to really be in the public eye. That was a real shock to one’s psyche.’
