Is Shane Warne chasing Liz Hurley?

LONDON - Cricket icon Shane Warne is chasing Liz Hurley after flirting madly with her at a party, according to sources.

Hurley, 45, got the full attention of the 41-year-old Aussie at a London bash thrown by Russian tycoon Alexander Lebedev.

“Shane was all over her like a love-sick pup and flirting like mad, ” the Sun quoted a source as saying.

“Most men do with Liz - she’s gorgeous. But she clearly just wants to stay good friends,” the pal added.

Warne and Hurley shared a cosy afternoon in a box at Glorious Goodwood in July. And the pair are mates on Twitter, often sharing banter.

Hurley is married to textile heir Arun Nayar, who is often in India on business. Society gossips have long hinted the relationship is stressed.

Hurley’s agent Katy Scott said: “I haven’t heard anything.” (ANI)
