London, Apr 08: British actress Elizabeth Hurley has agreed to marry her Indian-origin millionaire boyfriend Arun Nayar, but only after he divorces his Italian wife. Arun, 37, proposed to 36-year old Hurley when she flew down to Mumbai to meet his parents recently, according to the 'Daily Telegraph'.
Although Arun's mother was delighted, the grandmother reportedly disapproved of the marriage as she likes his Italian wife Valentina Pedroni.
She and his father Kailash Nayar, strongly disapproved their kissing in public and said nice girls from good families do not display such affections in the open.
But when Nayar proposed to Hurley, she said "yes" immediately as she feels her son Damien by the Hollywood's multi-millionaire producer Steve Bing, needs a father figure. Besides, Danian and Arun have hit off well, the report said.
Hurley has told her close friends that she and Arun will not announce their engagement until he gets his divorce.
They are said to be blissfully happy being together. Hurley says she has found her soul-mate and she is 100 per cent sure he is the man for her.
"He is very serious about committing to Liz (Elizabeth). Deep down, she is a traditional girl and never wanted things to work out as they did," her friend told the daily.
Valentina, meanwhile, is fretting and fuming that her best friend had stolen her husband. The divorce could be a lengthy affair.
Arun told the media that he would not like to comment. So did Hurley's spokesman. Bureau Report
