She Encourages People To Screen For Cancer

Hurley is the face of Estee Lauder's breast cancer campaign, as this cause is very important to her. She made an Instagram post for the cause, and explained her reasons behind her passions. "When my grandmother lost her life to breast cancer in the early 90's, nobody spoke openly about this disease," she wrote. "Times have changed, but people are still dying. Today, our call to help end breast cancer for all is more urgent than ever as breast cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide."

Hurley tells Women's Health that one way she likes to stay in shape is by doing housework. One thing she likes to do in particular is rake leaves. "Not only do I feel, well, actually exhausted, but also I feel that I've got the leaves up, which is also a nice thing," she says. "I'd rather do housework than go to the gym."

"It made me realize that I'd been in fight or flight mode for 30-odd years," she tells Women's Health. "I'm not very relaxed, as a person, in any case, but I have to say I became more so during lockdown."

Hurley also told Women's Health that the pandemic helped her relax in terms of her career. She says that it helped her to clear out her schedule and make time for herself. "I really valued making myself sit still for a bit," she says, "I always used to feel a bit guilty because I knew I had stuff in my inbox, and I knew I should be fixing it."

When it comes to her diet, Hurley loves to eat health. "I like simple, natural, easy food. I don't really like food with a lot of chemicals or additives," Hurley told The Cut. "When I'm at home in the country, I always try and eat food that's grown locally. That goes for meats and vegetables." She says that she even will grow her own food in her garden.
