Best known as his mother’s spitting image, Damian Hurley is the 21-year-old son of the English actress and model, Liz Hurley, who was making headlines in the 90s because of her bold looks and personality. Damian is Liz’s son with the late millionaire and property heir, Steve Bing.

Born as Damian Charles Hurley on April 4, 2002, Damian basically grew up in the limelight. This is not a surprise considering that he came from high-profile parents. Although he was initially denied paternity by his father, a DNA test later proved otherwise. Steve Bing agreed to pay £1.8 million in annual installments of £100,000 for his child support obligations following a court settlement, which Liz Hurley declined to accept. Not only his parents were prominent, but his godparents, as well. We have Hugh Grant, David Beckham, Elton John, and Denis Leary to name a few.
It was already expected that he would also follow in the footsteps of his mother. Damian Hurley was also making a name for himself in acting and modeling. He is known for his role in “The Boy on the Beach” (2022) and “The Royals” (2015). He recently dipped his toes in directing, too, with the 2023 thriller film, “Strictly Confidential”.
Damian signed with IMG Models in July 2020. The management works with high-profile models like Kate Moss, Gisele Bündchen, Cara Delevingne, and Gigi and Bella Hadid. Damian had already worked with the fashion giants like Mert and Marcus, Katie Grand, and Luigi and Iango.
The young actor slash model has been getting the public’s attention ever since he stepped into the industry. And one of the many things the public wanted an answer to is — is Damian Hurley gay?
VOTE: What is Damian Hurley’s Sexuality?
Damian Hurley’s Sexuality
Although he was always referred to as his mother’s spitting image, Damian actually got both of his parents’ looks. This means he had both manly and feminine facial features. He could look manly in some angles, yet feminine in some. And the thing with Damian is, he would always sport these lady-like facial expressions, which went perfectly with his long hair. This got some fans thinking that he was gay. Some even mistake him for a transgender.

Damian’s unique facial features made some people either mistake his gender or assume he was gay. But with all the rumors about the actor’s sexuality, he opted not to address any of it.
Damian Hurley’s Girlfriends
Although he never addresses the gossip questioning his sexuality, the actor never hesitates to flex his girlfriends to his social media followers.

In one of his Instagram posts, he was seen hugging a girl while they looked so happy together. He captioned it with:

Although the model never talked about his relationships publicly, he would never hesitate to “introduce” them to his fans. Not divulging their names nor tagging them on his posts could be his way to protect their identity.
Flexing his relationships on social media could also be Damian’s way to subtly debunk all the gay rumors about him. He may never address them directly, but he made it a point for everyone to know that he was into girls, contrary to what some people had assumed.
