Liz Hurley is happy her ex-boyfriend Hugh Grant is dating Jemima Khan because she knows her.

"I think it's always odd when people you know suddenly become a couple. But I'm always secretly pleased when people I know and like get together," Internet portal Femalefirst quoted her as saying.

The "Bewitched" beauty said she doesn't go through a day without speaking to Grant. The pair, who lived together for over 10 years, may now be involved with other people but they say claim to be the best of friends.
