March 9, 2023

Elizabeth Hurley is no stranger to a charitable update and on Wednesday, the actress, 57, looked simply ravishing in a gorgeous gown for an inspirational post for International Women's Day.

Taking to her Instagram account, the supermodel was a vision as she chatted to the camera to raise awareness for Smile Train, a charity who are dedicated to empowering local medical professionals to provide free cleft treatment in their own communities.

Elizabeth looked incredibly glamorous in the update and opted to wear a stunning silk halterneck gown in an elegant shade of navy blue.

Elizabeth spoke on behalf of the charity Smile Train

Captioning the post, she penned: "Women and girls with clefts often shoulder a double burden of inequity as they face additional stigma, harassment, isolation, and even violence due to their cleft. The physical challenges that come with a cleft, including difficulty eating, breathing, speaking, and hearing can limit their educational, social, and economic opportunities.

Shane and Elizabeth were engaged 

"This International Women's Day, I stand with @SmileTrain, the world’s largest cleft organization. We believe every girl and every woman deserves the opportunity to thrive. Collectively, we can help create a world where difference is valued, and equity is embraced. #EmbraceEquity #IWD2023."
