Liz Hurley Hits Back At Topless Photo Critics After Revealing It Wasn't Her Son Who Took Them

Liz Hurley has set the record straight after she was slammed for apparently getting her 18-year-old son to take pictures of her.

The 55-year-old model and actor took to Twitter, telling people it wasn't her teen boy that took the pictures but her 80-year-old mother:

The snaps, which were posted yesterday, show Hurley topless with a faux fur coat on and a pair of white knickers.

In response to her correcting tweet, one person wrote: "She's done a great job!"

Another added: "Save all the aggro next time, I'll dm my number and bell me. I've got a decent camera phone."

A third commented: "Elizabeth, no need to explain you're a businesswoman and a beautiful one. It's no one's business who took the photo. It's fabulous a lot of very jealous people out there."

Earlier today, Piers Morgan branded the pictures 'creepy' - not because of the content, but because of who he assumed was taking them.

Discussing the pictures on Good Morning Britain, the ITV presenter said: "Yeah, she looks fabulous, but what are you doing Liz? A bit of snow and you get your kit off.

"And who took the pictures? Your 19-year-old son, you said, took the pictures? Isn't that a bit creepy? What is all this! It's what we call in the business 'thirsty and a bit creepy'."

Not one to let him get away with things, co-host Susanna Reid said it was a bit hypocritical, adding: "You can't accuse other people of being thirsty when you're on national television and you have at least two columns and you're on every single podcast."

To which Piers retorted: "No, no, no. They're thirsty for me! You can think two things when you look at it - one, she looks great. Which she does. But also, 55? Getting your 19-year-old son to take pictures of you stripping off in the snow?"

Not letting it drop, Susanna continued to back Liz, saying she can do what she wants with her body.

She said: "Sorry. After women go over 50 are they not allowed to bare any flesh? That's what happened to Davina McCall! She got trolled."

But always one to have the last word, Piers snapped: "No, Davina didn't do this. Come on, you can think she looks great but come on! You're 55 - put your clothes on." Give it a rest, fella.
