Elizabeth Hurley stills talks to ex Hugh Grant: ‘He’s my go-to’
The former pair split in 2000 after 13 years together
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Elizabeth Hurley’s split from Hugh Grant is still amicable all these years later.
The longtime supermodel and actress said as much on Thursday during an appearance on People (the TV Show!) where she opened up about the fact she still leans on Grant despite their breakup in 2000 after 13 years together.
"The last time I spoke to Hugh would be this morning," Hurley, 55, revealed, adding that she still speaks to Grant "quite a lot."

{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Grant told People magazine in 2018 that he was an “idiot” for stepping out on Hurley.
I didn’t try to say, 'I’ve got this psychological problem.' I just said, 'I did it'" he lamented at the time, adding that in subsequent years he and Hurley became “like brother and sister.”
"I think it’s partly because we went from zero to somewhere together, and we went through terrible years at the beginning when neither of us had any work, living in a tiny flat. It was quite bonding."
