The news also came the same day that Grant8217;s ex-girlfriend, British model and actress Elizabeth Hurley, and Indian businessman Arun Nayar told officials of their plan to wed. Grant8217;s long relationship with Hurley ended in 2000.
For the last three years, Grant, 46, has been dating the 33-year-old Khan, the ex-wife of cricketer Imran Khan and daughter of the late Euroskeptic tycoon Sir James Goldsmith.
Grant, famous for playing fancy-free cads in films like Four Weddings and a Funeral or Bridget Jones, recently starred in Music and Lyrics, a romantic comedy about an over-the-hill rock star who eventually finds love in mid-life.
