Damian Hurley has posted an emotional photo of him dating Shane Warne’s children.
The 20-year-old model shared photos on Instagram on Saturday, showing off her special night with Jackson Warne, Brooke Warne and Summer Warne at an Ed Sheeran concert in London.
Damian, the son of Hollywood star Liz Hurley, Shane Warne’s former partner, referred to Warne as a “father figure” when the cricket icon died in March.
Warne was engaged to Elizabeth Hurley, 57, before their relationship ended in 2013.
The Australian sports hero would have been overwhelmed with joy at seeing his children and Hurley referred to as “family”.
Damian wrote next to one of the photos: “Good night to my beautiful family. thank you for counting on us ”.

Jackson also shared a photo of the night, showing him arm in arm with Damian.
The photos would also have filled Elizabeth Hurley’s heart.
It was too emotional to travel to Australia for Warne’s state funeral at the MCG.
