Place/Date of Birth: Hammersmith, London, 09 September 2020
Associated with: Jemima Khan, Liz Hurley

However, Hugh’s current girlfriend Jemima Khan is not happy with Liz’s request and has ordered him to turn down the offer. An insider is quoted by the Daily Star newspaper as saying: "Jemima and Hugh are besotted with each other. And she is comfortable with his bizarre friendship with Liz, because she knows that Arun and Liz wouldn’t get married unless they were madly in love. "But she is sick of the constant speculation about Hugh and Liz’s friendship, and obviously there will be a media frenzy if Hugh agrees to be Liz’s best man. "Best men have to make irreverent jokes about the bride and groom’s past romances. So he would have to make some reference to his relationship with Liz."

Earlier this week, Liz confirmed she is marrying Arun and also revealed the pair intend to try for a baby. The ’Bedazzled’ actress - who has been dating the Indian millionaire since 2003 - said: "I cannot reveal the exact date but it is very close. We are even thinking of having a child."

They spark off each other perfectly."
