Hugh Grant Jokingly Offers Ex-Girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley a Role in 'Paddington 3'

Elizabeth Hurley may have just scored a role in the next Paddington movie!

The 55-year old actress and model posted a photo on Sunday (January 17) of her holding up two homemade jars of marmalade.

Elizabeth captioned the pic, “Lockdown has turned me into a demented housewife: 47 jars of marmalade are nestling in my larder and another sack of Seville oranges await me.”

Her ex Hugh Grant retweeted the post with his own caption, “Paddington 3,” in reference to the character’s love of marmalade. Hugh starred in 2017′s Paddington 2 as villain Phoenix Buchanan.

Elizabeth and Hugh dated in the 1990s and have remained close after their breakup in 2000.

She told The Times, “I have certain friends and family who make me howl with mirth: my sister, my son and my ex, Hugh, being the chief culprits.”
