Elizabeth Hurley has been urged by an animal rights group not to use meat in her upcoming food range and cookery books.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) has written to the supermodel-turned-actress after learning she intends to launch her own range of low-fat organic food.

The products will include ingredients sourced from her 400-acre farm in Gloucestershire, England – including a litter of piglets.
In a letter to Hurley, PETA Vice President Bruce Friedrich writes, “Just as we hope Ms. Hurley would be hesitant to ship her dog off to slaughter, we hope she will pause to think before killing the pigs and other animals she is caring for on her farm. With so many healthy and delicious vegetarian options available, there’s no reason for Ms. Hurley – or anyone else – to betray her animal friends.”

Elizabeth Hurley is convinced she would be a mother of five if she had continued her romance with Hugh Grant – because the pair met when they were just 21.

Hurley, 43, and Grant, 47, dated for 13 years before parting ways in 2000 – but the pair remain close friends and confidants to this day. And their pals even joke they would now be parents to an enormous brood if they hadn’t chosen to end their relationship.

Hurley tells the July issue of Harper’s Bazaar magazine, “Sometimes Hugh and I can get morbid and say we could have had five children by now because we were together since we were 21. There was never a time when either of us wanted it.”

But the Bedazzled star, who has been married to Indian businessman Arun Nayar for a year, insists she would like to see Grant finally settled down.

She adds: “Women flock to Hugh. He’s like Austin Powers. Everyone worships him.”

Elizabeth Hurley loves keeping up to date with the latest sales figures of her swimwear range – even when she’s in bed with husband Arun Nayar.

The 42-year-old beauty confesses she is so “obsessed” with seeing how well her line is selling, she makes Nayar check the numbers before they go to sleep.

She explains, “As we have our laptops upstairs almost every night, when we’re cleaning our teeth, I’ll say, ‘Shall we look at today’s sales?’, and he’ll say, ‘Yeah, sure’, and look up how we’re doing with, say, the python print. I love all that.”

The 42-year-old has an exclusive line in European high street store Mango, as well as her own range Elizabeth Hurley Beach.

Hugh Grant and his ex-girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley have won $116,000 in damages for invasion of privacy, after they were photographed on holiday in a private resort in the Maldives.

Grant, model Hurley and her businessman husband Arun Nayar filed suit against photo agencies Big Pictures Limited and Eliot Press SARL last year, when snaps of the trio on vacation were published in a number of British newspapers.

Laura Tyler, the lawyer representing Grant, Hurley and Nayar, appeared at London’s High Court on Thursday morning, when she told Mr Justice Eady that the pictures had been taken covertly and without her clients’ knowledge. She also argued that the claimants had chosen the resort because it offered them complete privacy and seclusion.

She told the court: “It has been most upsetting for the claimants to have their privacy invaded by these defendants.”

The photos were later printed in the News of the World and The Mail on Sunday newspapers, as well as a number of celebrity magazines.

In addition to the cash for damages, the claimants will receive some money towards their legal costs from the two photo agencies, and agency bosses apologised for any distress their actions may have caused.

Further contributions will also be made by the News of the World’s publisher News Group Newspapers, and Associated Newspapers, which prints The Mail on Sunday.

Elizabeth Hurley has confessed the secrets behind her trim figure – she is a fan of airbrushing. The model-turned-actress loves to make herself more slender in photographs – and even adjusts her family holiday snaps.

She says, “Shooting bikinis is now my life, which is unmitigated hell. But if you signed on for the gig, sadly you have to go and be jolly in a skimpy white bikini. So now I rely on nice photographers and a certain amount of retouching. Every time I download my holiday snaps I go over them.”
