Liz factor stymied Hugh-Jemima romance (Go To Top)

      London: Jemima Khan's insecurity about ex-lovers Hugh Grant and Elizabeth Hurley's friendship is apparently dooming her own relationship with the actor. And, it seems that sparks flew between the heiress and Grant after a birdie told her that Elizabeth Hurley had been visiting the actor in New York, where he is currently filming a movie. When Jemima confronted Grant about the rumours, he reportedly made things worse by denying that Hurley had visited his luxury trailer, causing Khan not only to fly into a rage, but also accuse him of having an affair with his former girlfriend. "Word filtered back through a friend of a friend and Hugh, who didn't realise Jemima knew about it, was understandably reluctant to admit that he'd been seeing his ex-girlfriend. If he'd been up front about it, there probably wouldn't have been a problem. But he knows how sensitive Jemima is about Elizabeth, so when she asked him if he had seen her lately, he said no," the Daily Mail quoted the source, as saying. "Big mistake. Jemima hit the roof and started screaming at him, calling him a liar and accusing him and Elizabeth of having an affair. That was where all the problems began - since then they have been fighting like cat and dog. Every time Hugh does the smallest thing to upset her, Jemima will bring it up again and tell him to go back to Elizabeth, since he loves her so much," the source added.
