Hurley caught in bear hug with new admirer

ELIZABETH HURLEY has attracted the attention of some rather strange beasts in her lifetime, including former fiance cricketer Shane Warne, foppish actor Hugh Grant and textiles heir Arun Nayar.

But none is as hirsute as her latest admirer. The 51-year-old actress found herself being clutched by a grizzly bear this week while filming the new series of The Royals (left).

At least this particular encounter will leave Hurley relatively unscathed — for he appears to be a prop for the show. ‘Love a bear hug,’ she writes on social media.

Given her track record of disastrous suitors, who can blame her?
