(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Elizabeth Hurley spends “virtually all” of her time with her eight-year-old son.
The 44-year-old actress and Estee Lauder spokeswoman gained notoriety in the 1990s as the sexy girlfriend of Hugh Grant. Her good looks and bubbly personality won her several acting roles, but Elizabeth took a step back from her career when she gave birth to son Damian in 2002 and now devotes most of her time to the boy.
“Damian gets virtually all my time when he’s not at school. Unless there’s an emergency on, I try not to work between picking him up from school and bedtime,” she revealed.
“We do piano and guitar practice, the dreaded maths homework, supper, bath, reading and bed together seven nights week. If I have to be away on business, I keep the trips as short as possible and my mum comes to look after him.”
While Elizabeth was glad to take a break from her career to raise Damian, she says he wishes she was still a movie star. The boy adores all things “showbiz” and would love nothing more than spending his time on film sets.
“Damian adores being photographed – in fact he likes anything to do with showbiz,” Elizabeth told the British edition of OK! magazine. “He spends hours trying to persuade me to do movies again so that I can take him out of school to be tutored in my trailer. Needless to say, this is not going to happen!” (C) Cover Media
