Why Elizabeth Hurley quit movies
By IANSWednesday, May 20, 2009
LONDON - British model-actress Elizabeth Hurley has revealed she sacrificed her movie career to concentrate on raising her six-year-old son Damien.
The ‘Austin Powers’ star hasn’t made any film since 2004 and admits she would have loved to continue working as an actress but found it too difficult to juggle shooting with looking after Damien, whose father is US property mogul Steve Bing, reports contactmusic.com.
‘I decided I couldn’t do movies for a while, which was a huge decision for me because I actually love making movies more than anything,’ she said.
Hurley also admits if she is offered a film role in the future which can be slotted around Damien’s school holidays, she would ‘take it like a shot’.
Apart from looking after Damien, she has been keeping herself busy by focussing on her modelling career and other projects including her line of beachwear and a new organic food brand.
