Hurley’s Son Banned From Watching Grant’s Films
By WENNMonday, March 15, 2010
British model/actress ELIZABETH HURLEY has banned her young son from watching HUGH GRANT’s movies - because her ex-boyfriend’s films contain too much swearing.
Hurley, who is now married to textile heir Arun Nayar, was in a relationship with Grant for 13 years before they split in 2000.
Grant is now godfather to her seven-year-old son Damian, with ex-boyfriend Steve Bing.
The 43 year old admits she lets Damian watch her own movies, including Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery and Bedazzled - but Grant’s films are strictly out of bounds.
She says, “We’re always trying to find something that Uncle Hugh has done that he can see, but they’re full of swear words. We can’t find any (of Grant’s films to watch). He can’t watch Four Weddings and A Funeral. He can’t watch About A Boy. It’s quite difficult trying to find stuff for kids. I wouldn’t really watch anything that I’m in, but because of Damian, I’ve seen Austin Powers thousands of times. He knows all of my lines, he can describe all of my costumes, all my hairstyles - he knows which ones are wigs, he knows the lot.
“And Bedazzled he loves. He loves me being the devil. Of course, he knows all those lines as well. I don’t know any of them.”
