Elizabeth Hurley’s Son Has Been Cut Off From The Family Fortune

Damian Hurley might be the son of a famous actress, but he no longer has a family fortune to fall back on. Sadly for him, Elizabeth’s boy has been cut off from the significant sums he was in line to inherit later in his life. Why? Well, it’s a complex tale full of twists and turns – so strap in, folks!

Who’d have thought that there was trouble in the Hurley household? After all, Damian and Elizabeth’s respective social media pages seem to indicate that they’re both in a good place. Yet those images don’t tell the full story. You see, a hugely painful shadow has been cast over the pair in recent times.

Yep, Elizabeth and Damian could only watch as a bitter legal dispute raged on for more than 12 months. The youngster’s inheritance was the subject of the case, but the money being discussed wasn’t his mom’s. In fact, it came from his dad’s side of the family. The latter was an incredibly wealthy man named Steve Bing.

According to the website of British newspaper the Daily Mail, Steve was handed roughly $600 million from his clan in the past. That was a drop in the ocean for his father, though, as Peter Bing is said to have a fortune of about $2.7 billion. Jaw-dropping figures, right? Mind you, Damian’s dad wasn’t just known for his vast quantities of cash.

Much like Elizabeth, Steve had ties to the film industry, too. He served as a producer on a number of projects, including Sylvester Stallone’s Get Carter. On top of that, he also earned a writing credit for 2003’s Kangaroo Jack and provided money to the budget of the festive classic The Polar Express.
